Genesis
12:1-3
Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy
country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a
land that I will show thee:
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and
make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will
bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all
families of the earth be blessed. |
God made a twofold promise to Abraham. The first was a material
promise that he would be the father of many nations and that kings
would descend from him. God promised him that his progeny would
inherit the land of Canaan, an expanse that He defined as stretching
from the Nile to the Euphrates rivers. The second, but more important,
promise was spiritual. God promised Abraham that in his Seed all the
nations of the earth would be blessed. This promise encompasses the
life and work of Abraham's best known and most revered descendant,
Jesus Christ.
This promise was later extended to include the inheritance of the
whole world (Romans 4:13) For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world,
was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the
righteousness of faith.) Abraham's physical descendants, the nation of
Israel, inherited the land of Canaan. This was a type of Abraham's
spiritual descendants inheriting the earth.
God remembers the Gentiles when He calls Abraham, promising that
every nation, "all the families of the earth," will be blessed in
the blessings of Abraham. Paul, "the apostle to the Gentiles" (Romans
11:13), carries the thought to its
conclusion when he asserts that the line demarcating Jew and Gentile
disappears in Christ: "There is
neither Jew nor Greek; . . . for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And
if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according
to the promise."
|
Galatians 3:28-29
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free,
there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ
Jesus. And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and
heirs according to the promise. |
Where to find God's promise to King David.
2 Samuel 7:11-16 and
1 Chronicles 17:11-15.
In
summary, the promise is that:
- David's seed will be the Son of God.
- David's seed will build a house for God's name.
- David's seed will reign for ever from David's throne in
Jerusalem.
- David himself will witness these events.
New Testament teaching about the promise to David ...
God promised Abraham that
through his bloodline, God would bring forth the promise. This promise
would prove to be JESUS. He confirmed this promise through many of
those within this bloodline over the years. From Abraham to King
David.

Genesis
12:3
And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth
thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. |
|
Genesis
17:19
And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou
shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him
for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. |
|
Numbers 24:17
I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there
shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of
Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the
children of Sheth. |
|
Genesis 49:10
The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a
lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall
the gathering of the people be. |
|
2 Samuel 7:12-16
And when thy days be fulfilled, and
thou shalt sleep with thy fathers, I will set up thy seed after
thee, which shall proceed out of thy bowels, and I will
establish his kingdom. He shall build an house for my name,
and I will stablish the throne of his kingdom for ever. I
will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit
iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the
stripes of the children of men:
But my mercy shall not depart away from him, as I took it from
Saul, whom I put away before thee. And thine house and thy
kingdom shall be established for ever before thee: thy throne
shall be established for ever. |
The
bloodline of Jesus is shared with us in the books of Matthew and Luke.
The problem is that Matthew and Luke gave us two different bloodlines.
Let's take a look at these two bloodlines ...

JESUS’ BLOODLINE
The Lord told David that his throne would be
established forever.
From the scripture that you just read, it appears
that the everlasting kingdom would be established through Solomon
after David, because it was Solomon who built the Lord’s house. The
book of Matthew shows the generations before Jesus, back to Abraham.
Now, here’s a curious thing. Luke shows us a
bloodline that goes backward from Jesus all the way back to Adam, but
between Joseph and David, Luke follows the bloodline of David’s son
Nathan, not Solomon.
Although both of these family trees
suggest
that they are the bloodline of Joseph,
(Matthew)
Jacob begat
Joseph
(Luke)
Joseph, which
was the son of Heli
they are two completely different lists from David
to Joseph.
The bloodline of Jesus is a spiritual matter. Jesus
was not a blood relative to Joseph, because as you know, He was
conceived of the Holy Spirit by Mary, and Joseph was His step-dad.
Mary was the cousin of Elisabeth, who was of the daughters of Aaron,
which suggests that they were probably of the tribe of Levi, not of
Judah.
|
Genesis 49:10
The
sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between
his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of
the people be. |
You’ll also notice in the Bible that it’s very rare
for the name of any woman to be included in a bloodline, as the family
name is carried on through the male children. Mary and Joseph were
simply vessels by which Jesus was born in the flesh and raised. He is
the Son of God.
A couple of interesting notes:
In Matthew’s account, he says from the carrying away
into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations, but he only lists
13.
Also, Matthew follows the bloodline of Joseph
through Solomon, which includes all of the kings of Judah, but in
Matthew’s list, there are 4 generations of kings missing: Joash,
Amaziah, Azariah, and Zedekiah.
Check out what God
said LORD about Coniah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah.

Jeremiah 22:29-30
O earth, earth,
earth, hear the word of the LORD. Thus saith the LORD, Write ye
this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days:
for no man of his
seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David,
and ruling any more in Judah. |
