"Son of David" is a Messianic title in fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy.


2 Samuel 7:12-16. NIV
12 When your days are over and you rest with your ancestors, I will raise up your offspring to succeed you, your own flesh and blood, and I will establish his kingdom. 13 He is the one who will build a house for my Name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever. 14 I will be his father, and he will be my son. When he does wrong, I will punish him with a rod wielded by men, with floggings inflicted by human hands. 15 But my love will never be taken away from him, as I took it away from Saul, whom I removed from before you. 16 Your house and your kingdom will endure forever before me; your throne will be established forever.’”




Luke 2:4
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David.

Jeremiah 33:17
For this is what the LORD says: ‘David will never fail to have a man to sit on the throne of Israel,

They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.

Rom 1:3. Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;

Rom 1:4. And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

Yahshua is David's lord.



The bible says that Christ is a son of David (The King.) Joseph was also a royal descendant of David. I presume that God made Christ body after the lineage of King David.
Jeremiah 33:17
For this is what the Lord says: ‘David will never fail to have a man to sit on the throne of Israel,

Jeremiah 33:18
nor will the Levitical priests ever fail to have a man to stand before me continually to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings and to present sacrifices.’

How seriously would you personally take The Book of Adam and Eve?

Or at least certain parts of it?

Chapter XIV - The earliest prophesy of the coming of Christ.

1 Then Adam said to God: "O Lord, take You my soul, and let me not see this gloom any more; or remove me to some place where there is no darkness." 2 But God the Lord said to Adam, "Indeed I say to you, this darkness will pass from you, every day I have determined for you, until the fulfillment of My covenant; when I will save you and bring you back again into the garden, into the house of light you long for, in which there is no darkness*. I will bring you to it -- in the kingdom of heaven." 3 Again said God to Adam, "All this misery that you have been made to take on yourself because of your transgression, will not free you from the hand of Satan, and will not save you. 4 But I will. When I shall come down from heaven, and shall become flesh of your descendants, and take on Myself the infirmity from which you suffer, then the darkness that covered you in this cave shall cover Me in the grave, when I am in the flesh of your descendants. 5 And I, who am without years, shall be subject to the reckoning of years, of times, of months, and of days, and I shall be reckoned as one of the sons of men, in order to save you." 6 And God ceased to commune with Adam. * Reference: John 12:46

Chapter XV - Adam and Eve grieve over the suffering of God to save them from their sins.

1 Then Adam and Eve cried and sorrowed by reason of God's word to them, that they should not return to the garden until the fulfillment of the days decreed on them; but mostly because God had told them that He should suffer for their salvation.

Chapter XVI - The first sunrise. Adam and Eve think it is a fire coming to burn them.

You think that Christ was a Levite?

Heb 7:14 For it is clear that our Lord descended from Judah, and in regard to that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.
Was Christ a Pharisee? Why did the Pharisees call Christ Rabbi? Was Christ one of their own? No one seems to know for certain.

bcbsr asked if you think Yeshua was a Levite. You didn't answer the question.

This is a symptom I see constantly here.

Why don't people answer directly? Yeshua even said "Let your yes be yes, and your no be no" but it does not appear the users of this forum agree with him.

Can't you hear the frustration in Yeshua's statement? How he is clearly tired of dealing with people who don't give direct answers? Why should we subject anyone to such frustration?

Dodging questions is a wonderful way of letting people know that there is no point in interacting with you.

First of all "Pharisee" is not a tribe of Isreal but a sect of Judaism. Secondly "Rabbi" means teacher and again is not limited to a particular tribe of Israel.

The Jewish priesthood was limited to the descendants of Aaron, which means it's limited to a particular group of Levites, which Jesus wasn't. The book of Hebrews chapters 5 to 7 cover Jesus' priesthood and makes a point of this, that Jesus wasn't a Levitical priest.

And Mary was also of the house of David through her father Heli.

See Jesus' Genealogy
This is hotly debated, but I’m of the belief that Mary’s lineage through her father, Joseph, is listed in Matthew 1, and not in Luke 3.

If you count the number of generations (14) as given in Matthew 1, it’s not correct if the Joseph listed is her husband. It only makes sense that the Joseph listed here is her father, and not her husband, as most manuscripts say “husband”. Count the generations.


14 generations between Abraham and David
Abraham 1
Isaac 2
Jacob 3
Judah 4
Perez 5
Hezron 6
Ram 7
Amminadab 8
Nahshon 9
Salmon 10
Boaz 11
Obed 12
Jesse 13
David 14

14 generations between Solomon & Jeconiah
Solomon 1
Rehoboam 2
Abijah 3
Asa 4
Jehoshaphat 5
Jehoram 6
Uzziah 7
Jotham 8
Ahaz 9
Hezekiah 10
Manasseh 11
Amon 12
Josiah 13
Jeconiah 14

14 generations from this Shealtiel to Messiah
Shealtiel 1
Zerubbabel 2
Abihud 3
Eliakim 4
AZor 5
Zadok 6
Akim 7
Elihud 8
Eleazar 9
Matthan 10
Jacob 11
Joseph (father of Mary) 12
Mary 13
Christ 14

In the last chart, if the Joseph listed is her husband, Christ would be the 13th generation from Babylon, and not 14th. According to Matthew, there are 14 generations.

Matthew 1:17 NIV
Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.

Both lineages can't be about the same man because they are 2 different lineages.

I was just researching this the other day.

Matthew is Mary's genealogy but has been incorrectly translated into English. This is why Jews don't believe Yeshua is the Messiah. You have to go to the Hebrew text of Matthew which predates the Greek in order to find that the Joseph mentioned in Matthew is not Joseph, Mary's husband.

I first heard this from Michael Rood and started to research the subject.

The blog below explains it well and has a photo of the Hebrew text of Matthew.

[ Given the enormity and complexity of this issue, I wish to provide only a very basic overall here of the incredible insights and truth that Uriel Ben Mordechai in particular, and even others like A.B. (Bruce) Barham and Nehemia Gordon, have found and shared on this whole question.]

In Matthew’s genealogy (which shows that Jesus was a descendant of King David) we read:

“Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.” (Mathew 1:17).

The numerical value of the Hebrew characters forming the name of the great King of Israel – David (דוד) is 14.

This is how it works 14 = (4) ד (4) + ו (6) + ד

Matthew uses genealogy to intentionally tie Jesus to David numerically (through a gematria of 14) three times. His point is that Jesus is the son of David, i.e. the Messiah.
