ANTICIPATIONS IN THE GENEALOGY OF CHRIST. The gospel of Matthew - TopicsExpress



          

ANTICIPATIONS IN THE GENEALOGY OF CHRIST. The gospel of Matthew opens with a long "boring" family lineage, which oftentimes is treated with less or even no importance. However, a relook at this genealogical record (Matt. 1:1-16) brings to bear the expectations of Israel of the Messiah. More than a king, more than a prophet, much more than a priest, Israel was in dire expectation of that One Messianic figure, Christ Jesus. They had long awaited the "Son of David" who will "save His people from their sins." Another week is here, what is (are) your expectation(s) of this Christ? Remember, He is able to save you to the uttermost.
