The Book of Matthew
Chapter 1 | |
| 1 | The
book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the 1son of David, the son of
Abraham.
1 Psa 132:11 |
| 2 | Abraham begat
1Isaac; and Isaac begat 2Jacob; and Jacob begat 3Judas and his brethren;
1 Gen 21:3 2 Gen 25:26 3 Gen 29:35 |
| 3 | And Judas begat 1Phares and Zara
of Thamar; and Phares begat 2Esrom; and Esrom begat 3Aram;
1 Gen 38:29 2 Ruth 4:18 1 Chron 2:5 3 Ruth 4:19 |
| 4 | And Aram begat 1Aminadab; and Aminadab
begat 2Naasson; and Naasson begat 3Salmon;
1 Ruth 4:19 2 1 Chron 2:10 Exod 6:23 3 Ruth 4:20 |
| 5 | And Salmon begat 1Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of
Ruth; and Obed begat 2Jesse;
1 Ruth 4:21 1 Chron 2:12 Josh 2:1, 6:25 2 Ruth 4:22 |
| 6 | And Jesse begat 1David the king; and David the king begat 2Solomon of her
that had been the wife of Urias;
1 1 Sam 17:12 2 2 Sam 12:24 |
| 7 | And Solomon begat 1Roboam; and Roboam begat 2Abia; and Abia begat
3Asa;
1 1 Kings 11:43, 2 1 Kings 14:31, 3 1 Kings 15:8 |
| 8 | And Asa begat
1Josaphat; and Josaphat begat 2Joram; and Joram begat 3Ozias;
1 2 Chron 17:1 2 2 Kings 8:16 3 2 Kings 14:21 |
| 9 | And Ozias begat 1Joatham; and Joatham
begat 2Achaz; and Achaz begat 3Ezekias;
1 2 Kings 15:7 2 2 Kings 15:38 3 2 Kings 16:20 |
| 10 | And Ezekias begat 1Manasses; and Manasses begat 2Amon;
and Amon begat 3Josias;
1 2 Kings 20:21, 2 2 Kings 21:18, 3 2 Kings 21:24 |
| 11 | And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were
carried away to Babylon:
2 Kings 24:6, 14 Jer 27:20 Dan 1:2 |
| 12 | And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat 1Salathiel; and
Salathiel begat 2Zorobabel;
1 1 Chron 3:17, 2 1 Chron 3:19 Ezra 3:2 Neh 12:1 Hag 1:1 |
| 13 | And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; |
| 14 | And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud; |
| 15 | And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; |
| 16 | And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. |
| 17 | So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations. |
| 18 | Now the
birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to
Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy
Ghost.
Luke 1:27 |
| 19 | Then Joseph
her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example,
was minded to 1put her away privily.
1 Deut 24:1-3 Jer 3:1 Matt 5:31, 19:7 Mark 10:4 |
| 20 | But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the
LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not
to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is
a
conceived in her is of the
Holy Ghost.
Luke 1:35 |
| 21 | And she
shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name
b
JESUS: for he shall save
his people from their sins.
Luke 1:31 Acts 4:12, 13:38 |
| 22 | Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, |
| 23 | Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a
son, and
c
they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God
with us.
Isa 7:14 |
| 24 | Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: |
| 25 |
And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called
his name JESUS.
Exod 13:2 Luke 2:7 |
