7 ARROWS : Matthew 1:1-17


The genealogy of Christ reminds us of the redemption thread running all the way from Abraham to Jesus.

For Jewish readers/hearers this genealogy will have very familiar and historic links.

God kept his promise to Abraham- and this list gives the play by play of how the promise was realized.

There is a lot of broken in this list. God often choses to use people flaws and all.

Remember God’s provision plan is very long and detailed.

This passage helps connect the dots between the Old Testament to Jesus.

All wise Father, your plan was perfect. Thank you for your faithfulness and for using imperfect people in your plan.
