Description: Matthew's genealogy is not a boring list but a carefully constructed literary and theological summary of the whole Old Testament, showing that Jesus is the promised King who fulfills the covenants made to Abraham and David, and that God's providence preserved the messianic line through scandalous and barren circumstances to guarantee his faithfulness.
