The Ancestory of Jesus

Luke 3:23

 

Now Jesus Himself began His ministry at about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, the son of Heli, the son of Matthat, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech, the son of Methuselah, the son of Enoch, the son of Jared, the son of Mahalalel, the son of Cainan, the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.

 

Now, check the Hebrew meanings of these names:

 

Adam means Man.

Seth means appointed. 

Enosh means mortal.

Cainan means sorrow.

Mahalalel means The Blessed God.

Jared means shall come down.

Enoch means teaching.

Methuselah means his death shall bring.

Lamech means despairing.

Noah means rest or comfort.

 

so…

 

Man is appointed mortal sorrow. The Blessed God shall come down teaching, his death shall bring  the despairing rest.

Hey!

Hey there. I’m Steve Edwards. I’m an actor, a writer, a teacher and a preacher!

This site explores the meaning of St. Paul’s words ‘by grace we are saved’. I hope it helps you to understand that we are loved by God completely, purely, fully, regardless of our mistakes. He loves us not because of who we are, but because of who He is, and what He did for us on the cross. Amen!

Please explore the hundreds of articles on the different books of the bible, and how the bible reveals that our holiness is a gift from God, and doesn’t depend on us and our good works. Thank God for that!

You can also find me preaching about God’s amazing grace on Tik Tok @christianactor.
