The Genealogy of Jesus Christ

The genealogy of Jesus Christ states clearly the earthly blood lines of Jesus that start with Adam to Abraham the father of Isaac to David as recorded by Matthew whose main concern was to establish that Jesus was in fact the Jewish Messiah  whose birth had been  predicted and for-told of by the prophets in the Old Testament of the Holy Bible. Matthew took special pains to connect the events  surrounding the birth, life and death of Jesus with the traditions of the Jews.

Matthew's account traces the lineage from Abraham to Jesus (41 generations), while Luke records the ancestry from Adam to Jesus (76 generations).
Matthew's genealogy is condensed and divided into three groups of 14, representing a movement through three time periods. The first group lists the patriarchs, the second names the kings, and the third contains private citizens. The intent was not to give a strict record, but rather, present the historical progression.
