The Family Tree
In the genealogy of Jesus at the beginning of Matthew we discover that God
has been at work through every generation to bring about His plan, even in
the times that we would call "bad." Ultimately we find that Jesus, the
long-promised and long-awaited Messiah, was born at just the right time,
the Son of David (royalty) and the Son of Abraham (Jewish).
