Matthew 1 - Contemporary English Version Interconfessional Edition(CEVDCI)

The Ancestors of Jesus(Luke 3.23-38)

1Jesus Christ came from the family of King David and also from the family of Abraham. And this is a list of his ancestors.

2-6aFrom Abraham to King David, his ancestors were:

Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah and his brothers (Judah's sons were Perez and Zerah, and their mother was Tamar), Hezron;

Ram, Amminadab, Nahshon, Salmon, Boaz (his mother was Rahab), Obed (his mother was Ruth), Jesse, and King David.

6b-11 and did not want to embarrass Mary in front of everyone. So he decided to quietly call off the wedding.

20While Joseph was thinking about this, an angel from the Lord appeared to him in a dream. The angel said, “Joseph, the baby that Mary will have is from the Holy Spirit. Go ahead and marry her.

21 because he will save his people from their sins.”

22So the Lord's promise came true, just as the prophet had said,

23Is 7.14 (LXX). “A virgin will have a baby boy, and he will be called Immanuel,” which means “God is with us.”

24After Joseph woke up, he and Mary were soon married, just as the Lord's angel had told him to do.

25Lk 2.21. But they did not sleep together before her baby was born. Then Joseph named him Jesus.
