You may or may not have noticed it in the “recent comments” on the sidebar, but there’s been an interesting (to me, anyway) discussion on a post from a couple of weeks ago touching on the genealogies of Christ from Matthew and Luke, the curse of Jeremiah 22:30, Zerubbabel, Levirate marriage, etc. 

There is a lot that isn’t 100% clear, and if the Lord had intended to make it clear to us He could have, so we shouldn’t press our points too finely.  I doubt it will revolutionise your life, but if you are interested in the finer details of the descent of our Lord, you may find some profit in the discussion.  

Edit:  I’m going to close comments on this post, so that any comments on the topic will stay in the same thread.
