“THE BIRTH OF JESUS”
Throughout Jesus genealogy, He was considered to be a descendant of Abraham through the tribe of Judah and the seed of David an offspring of Shem (Genesis 12:1-3; Rev. 5:5; Acts 13:22-24; 2 Timothy 2:8; Revelations 22:16). Looking at the history of Jesus genealogy, God had used several Gentiles to be the ancestors of Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:3, 5-6).
Mary the earthly mother of Jesus Christ was a Semitic Aramaic Jewish woman and His earthly father “Joseph” was a Jew from the offspring’s of David (Genesis 49:10; 1 Chronicles 17:11-12; Jeremiah 33:17; Psalm 89:29-38). Even thou Jesus was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, however, his blood DNA was not contributed to the fetus. Jesus did not inherit any Adamic gene at His birth. His earthly ancestors only …show more content…

He became flesh and identified himself with humanity, by taking the body of a man in order to save all humans from their sinful nature (Romans 1:3; 1 John 4:2; 2 John 1:7). Have we ever asked ourselves these questions, how could a perfect God, be born of imperfect man who was born into a sinful nature to bring forth a perfect God-Child who is sinless into this world to be the Savior of the world? (Romans 3:23; 1 peter 3:18). How could Jesus be born of one with a sinful nature and be a perfect Savior, be a perfect high Priest, be a Perfect Mediator, be a perfect Sacrifice, be a perfect King and Lord? Every one of us that were born of a sinful man, inherited the Adamic nature of our sinful parents. If Jesus was born of a sinful woman, He would have also inherited the Adamic sinful nature that would have made Him imperfect and unworthy to save humanity. For the bible said all have sinned, every human being have sinned and fall short of the glory of

    Jesus Christ became human and walked with men and women. The Creator of heaven and earth became a creature and entered the creation that he made into existence. God made himself known so humanity could have the most basic understanding of who he was and Christ there would be no Christianity.

    Step-Father of Jesus Christ, Joseph was a hard working carpenter that serves his people. Jesus was brought into his Step Father’s trade in Book of Mark questioning in astonishment “Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?” (Mark 6:3) Jesus served his people but never followed his Step-Father’s footsteps and believed he was made for more than being a carpenter but to be a servant for the Lord. “Who thought he was in the form of God, did not count equality with a god to be grasped but taking form of a servant and being born in the likeness of man” (Philippians 2:6-7) Jesus followed passions that Willy never did in “Death of a

  • Exploring Anti-Semitism in the Gospel of Matthew

    1431 Words  | 3 Pages

    Before going on to demonstrate Jesus’s anti-Semitic qualities in the biblical text, it is necessary to identify how Matthew begins the gospel with the story of Jesus’s birth. The purpose of opening the Gospel with the genealogy of Jesus, which fits the foreshadowed description of Jesus from the Old Testament, is to increase the validity of the Gospel. He pronounced his pro-Jewish elements, namely how the events of his birth are a reminiscent of those in the traditional Jewish prophecy. The Gospel of Matthew illustrates its strong connection to the Old Testament as Matthew dedicates a chapter of his text to tracing back Jesus’s ancestry, linking him to the founding father of the Israelites’ bloodline, Abraham. “Abraham was the father of Isaac . . . of whom Jesus was born, who is called Messiah” (Matthew 1:1-16). It is important for Matthew to carefully draw attention to Jesus’ genealogy in order to elucidate that Jesus is a descendent of David and that his birth fulfills the Old Testament prophesies...

    The Church maintains that the human element, the Jewish side of Jesus, contributes greatly to the origins of Christianity, and thus it cannot be ignored when analysing the words and acts of Christ. Like Gnosticism, the Bible is primarily used to support this view but more so the New Testament. Jesus’ Jewish background and humanity are revealed in the Old Testament and confirmed in the New Testament, with the majority of evidence found in the Gospels. In the Gospel of Matthew, we are given a complete genealogy of Jesus from Abraham to Mary of Nazareth, so we know all of his relatives are human. In the Gospel of Luke we are given a genealogy back to Adam of Genesis, thus connecting the Old and New Testament. Lastly, in the Gospel of John we are told, “In the beginning was the Word…and the Word became flesh and lived among us,” explicitly affirming Jesus’ humanity. Although Gnostics are able to use the Old Testament as evidence for their beliefs, it is difficult to reject Jesus’s humanity and his Jewish background since its theology is founded on Jewish

  • Compare the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke

    The birth narrative of Matthew begins with a long genealogy of Jesus, which basically shows how Jesus is son of Abraham who is the father of the nation of Israel, and David the King of the Jews. This may not seem important but this genealogy shows how Jesus is connected to the Davidic line. Then we have Mary, who just found out she was pregnant and Joseph decides it is best to divorce her because he wanted to break his union with someone who is pregnant, by someone else. But behold the angel comes down and reassures Joseph that Mary was pregnant by the Holy Spirit and that he should take her back into his house. The angel also said to name the child Emmanuel. When Jesus was born in Bethlehem, and King Herod heard of this new newborn king of the Jews and he ordered that all boys under the age of 2 be killed. The magi gave Jesus the gifts and left. In a dream, the angel of the lord told Joseph to take the child and go to Egypt and hide, Herod then died, and Jesus was safe.

In Luke, he talks about the salvation of God is for the entire world. When you read the Gospel of Luke, Jesus roots trace back to Adam. Why Adam, because he was the first man created by God.

Jesus was proclaimed to be the Savior of the Jews. The Jews and the early Christians called him the Son of God. The preaching of Jesus was not limited to strictly to Christians.

    Christmas! Jesus’ birth! What a splendid time of year. To me, Christ’s birth along with his death and resurrection are the most important events in the history of humanity, and the ones that I am the most grateful for in my life. Without his birth, we wouldn’t have a Savior that would redeem us from all of the darkness of sin. God in his infinite love sent his one and only son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Because of Christ’s birth, his death on the cross, and his resurrection from the dead, we have new life. If you think about it, our identity as Christians is linked to a tiny little baby born in a stable and to the Christ who died on the cross. One selection of scripture that emphasizes all these aspects is Isaiah 9:6.

    According to the scripture, Jesus descended from the tribe of Judah, a Semitic origin, an offspring of David, and a Jew. Joseph the earthly father of Jesus Christ was a descendant of king David. Both Joseph and his wife Mary were Jews (Genesis 49:8-10; Number 24:17; Isaiah 7:14; 9:7; 11:10; Jeremiah 23:5-6; Micah 5:2; Matthew 1:18-25; 2:6; Luke 1:26-27, 30-33; 2:4-5,7; Acts 13:22-23; Romans 15:12; Revelation 5:5). The prophecies in the Bible foretold that Jesus will be falsely accused, rejected, betrayed, spat on, buffet, struck him with palms of hands and condemned Him to death by His own people the “Jews” (Psalm 35:11, 19; 118:22; Isaiah 8:14; 28:16; Mark 14:57-65; Luke 23:18; John 1:11; 6:41-66; 15:24-25; Acts 4:11; 1 Peter 2:6-8).
