	Matthew emphasizes, from the beginning, Jesus’ title ''[[Christ]]'' which is the Greek rendering of the Hebrew title ''[[Messiah]],'' meaning ''anointed'', in the sense of an anointed king. Jesus is presented first and foremost as the long awaited Messiah, who was expected to be a descendant and heir of King David, so the genealogy serves the essential purpose of demonstrating this line of descent. Thus, Matthew begins by calling Jesus ''Son of David'', indicating his royal origin, and also ''Son of Abraham'', indicating that he was a Jew; both are stock phrases, in which ''son'' means ''descendant'', calling to mind the promises God made to David and to Abraham.

-	The '''genealogy of Jesus''' is described in two passages of the [[Gospels]]: [[Luke 3:23]]–[[Luke 3:38\|38]] and [[Matthew 1:1]]–[[Matthew 1:17\|17]], although only Luke's is a linage of Jesus, whereas Matthews is a linage of Joseph. Matthew's genealogy commences with [[Abraham]] and then from [[David\|King David]]'s son [[Solomon]] follows the legal line of the kings through [[Jeconiah]], the king whose descendants were cursed, to [[Joseph]], legal father of [[Jesus]].

-	The total of 42 generations is achieved only by omitting several names, so the choice of three sets of fourteen seems deliberate. Fourteen is [[7 (number)#Judaism\|seven]], symbolizing perfection and covenant, doubled, and is also the [[gematria]] of ''David''. Numerous other explanations have been proposed as well.

		+	The second segment is “from David to the deportation,” including David in the tally again, but not specifically Jeconiah. It would have made perfect sense to use his name seeing Israel would have been familiar with Jeconiah and his relation to the exile. But Jeconiah is not listed here by name; rather, the deportation is listed. This is an important point in understanding this list. Jeconiah was only king for a very short amount of time, and is documented as doing evil and was young, being just 18 when he took the position as king ([[2 Chronicles 36:9]]). We should not assume that Matthew counted Jeconiah’s short reign as a full generation which is specifically what Matthew is writing about in verse 17. So, from David to the deportation, which would include the small period of Jeconiah, there are 14 generations.
		+
		+	The third segment is “from the deportation to the Messiah,” and seeing Jeconiah was not listed with the previous division at the exile, he is also not listed here, since the time of his generation was more complete after the exile of Israel. When adding up the generations, from Jeconiah to Christ, there are 14 generations.
		+
		+	Matthew was accurate with his wording of each of the 14 generations. Using Matthew’s list, David was mentioned twice, which does not produce a contradiction but rather reveals vigilant wording on Matthew’s part with an emphasis on generations.

Jesus is presented first and foremost as the long-awaited Messiah, who was expected to be a descendant and heir of King David, so the genealogy serves the essential purpose of demonstrating this line of descent. Thus, Matthew begins by calling Jesus ''son of David'', indicating his royal origin, and also ''son of Abraham'', indicating that he was a Jew; both are stock phrases, in which ''son'' means ''descendant'', calling to mind the promises God made to David and to Abraham.<sup>[]</sup>		Matthew emphasizes, right from the beginning, Jesus’ title ''[[Christ]]''—the Greek rendering of the Hebrew title ''[[Messiah]]''—meaning ''anointed'', in the sense of an anointed king.
