Virgin birth
1. Virgin birth
2. The virgin birth foretold
3. Isaiah 7:14
KJV: Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Hebrew: לכן יתן אדני הוא לכם אות הנה העלמה הרה וילדת בן וקראת שמו עמנו אל׃
Greek: δια τουτο δωσει κυριος αυτος υμιν σημειον ιδου η παρθενος εν γαστρι εξει και τεξεται υιον και καλεσεις το ονομα αυτου εμμανουηλ
4. Matthew 1:23
Matthew 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. [kjv]
ιδου η παρθενος εν γαστρι εξει και τεξεται υιον και καλεσουσιν το ονομα αυτου εμμανουηλ ο εστιν μεθερμηνευομενον μεθ ημων ο θεος [gnt]
5. Matthew 1:23
KJV: Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
Greek: ιδου η παρθενος εν γαστρι εξει και τεξεται υιον και καλεσουσιν το ονομα αυτου εμμανουηλ ο εστιν μεθερμηνευομενον μεθ ημων ο θεος
6. Throne
To sit on the throne of David, Jesus needs to be of the legal line and of the blood line of David.
The legal line has a curse of Jehoiakim by Jeremiah. Jeremiah, the "Weeping prophet", is in Jerusalem in the time of Nebuchadnezzar - while during hist later ministry, Daniel is in Babylon.
7. Why the virgin birth?
Jeremiah 22:30 Thus saith the LORD, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah. [kjv]
γραψον τον ανδρα τουτον εκκηρυκτον ανθρωπον οτι ου μη αυξηθη εκ του σπερματος αυτου ανηρ καθημενος επι θρονου δαυιδ αρχων ετι εν τω ιουδα [lxx]
To sit on the throne of David, Jesus needs to be of the legal line and of the blood line of David. The legal line has a curse of Jehoiakim.
8. Jeremiah 22:30
KJV: Thus saith the LORD, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days: for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah.
Hebrew: כה אמר יהוה כתבו את האיש הזה ערירי גבר לא יצלח בימיו כי לא יצלח מזרעו איש ישב על כסא דוד ומשל עוד ביהודה׃
Greek: γραψον τον ανδρα τουτον εκκηρυκτον ανθρωπον οτι ου μη αυξηθη εκ του σπερματος αυτου ανηρ καθημενος επι θρονου δαυιδ αρχων ετι εν τω ιουδα
9. Problem
The problem is that the Messiah needs to be of the blood line of David while the King needs to be of the legal line of David. How do we get around this dilemma?
10. Job 42:15 Inheritance
Job 42:15 And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren. [kjv]
Could women inherit (property, goods, etc.) in Bible times?
Job gave his daughters an inheritance. (the time of Job is after the flood and probably before Abraham).
11. Job 42:15
KJV: And in all the land were no women found so fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.
Hebrew: ולא נמצא נשים יפות כבנות איוב בכל הארץ ויתן להם אביהם נחלה בתוך אחיהם׃
Greek: και ουχ ευρεθησαν κατα τας θυγατερας ιωβ βελτιους αυτων εν τη υπ ουρανον εδωκεν δε αυταις ο πατηρ κληρονομιαν εν τοις αδελφοις
12. Numbers 26:33 Daughters
Numbers 26:33 And Zelophehad the son of Hepher had no sons, but daughters: and the names of the daughters of Zelophehad were Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah. [kjv]
Who are the daughters of Zelophehad?
13. Numbers 26:33
KJV: And Zelophehad the son of Hepher had no sons, but daughters: and the names of the daughters of Zelophehad were Mahlah, and Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.
Hebrew: וצלפחד בן חפר לא היו לו בנים כי אם בנות ושם בנות צלפחד מחלה ונעה חגלה מלכה ותרצה׃
Greek: και τω σαλπααδ υιω οφερ ουκ εγενοντο αυτω υιοι αλλ η θυγατερες και ταυτα τα ονοματα των θυγατερων σαλπααδ μαλα και νουα και εγλα και μελχα και θερσα
14. Numbers 27:7 Daughters
Numbers 27:7 The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them. [kjv]
15. Numbers 27:7
KJV: The daughters of Zelophehad speak right: thou shalt surely give them a possession of an inheritance among their father's brethren; and thou shalt cause the inheritance of their father to pass unto them.
Hebrew: כן בנות צלפחד דברת נתן תתן להם אחזת נחלה בתוך אחי אביהם והעברת את נחלת אביהן להן׃
Greek: ορθως θυγατερες σαλπααδ λελαληκασιν δομα δωσεις αυταις κατασχεσιν κληρονομιας εν μεσω αδελφων πατρος αυτων και περιθησεις τον κληρον του πατρος αυτων αυταις
16. Numbers 36:2-3,6 Daughters
17. Numbers 36:2
KJV: And they said, The LORD commanded my lord to give the land for an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel: and my lord was commanded by the LORD to give the inheritance of Zelophehad our brother unto his daughters.
Hebrew: ויאמרו את אדני צוה יהוה לתת את הארץ בנחלה בגורל לבני ישראל ואדני צוה ביהוה לתת את נחלת צלפחד אחינו לבנתיו׃
Greek: και ειπαν τω κυριω ημων ενετειλατο κυριος αποδουναι την γην της κληρονομιας εν κληρω τοις υιοις ισραηλ και τω κυριω συνεταξεν κυριος δουναι την κληρονομιαν σαλπααδ του αδελφου ημων ταις θυγατρασιν αυτου
18. Numbers 36:3
KJV: And if they be married to any of the sons of the other tribes of the children of Israel, then shall their inheritance be taken from the inheritance of our fathers, and shall be put to the inheritance of the tribe whereunto they are received: so shall it be taken from the lot of our inheritance.
Hebrew: והיו לאחד מבני שבטי בני ישראל לנשים ונגרעה נחלתן מנחלת אבתינו ונוסף על נחלת המטה אשר תהיינה להם ומגרל נחלתנו יגרע׃
Greek: και εσονται ενι των φυλων υιων ισραηλ γυναικες και αφαιρεθησεται ο κληρος αυτων εκ της κατασχεσεως των πατερων ημων και προστεθησεται εις κληρονομιαν της φυλης οις αν γενωνται γυναικες και εκ του κληρου της κληρονομιας ημων αφαιρεθησεται
19. Numbers 36:6
KJV: This is the thing which the LORD doth command concerning the daughters of Zelophehad, saying, Let them marry to whom they think best; only to the family of the tribe of their father shall they marry.
Hebrew: זה הדבר אשר צוה יהוה לבנות צלפחד לאמר לטוב בעיניהם תהיינה לנשים אך למשפחת מטה אביהם תהיינה לנשים׃
Greek: τουτο το ρημα ο συνεταξεν κυριος ταις θυγατρασιν σαλπααδ λεγων ου αρεσκει εναντιον αυτων εστωσαν γυναικες πλην εκ του δημου του πατρος αυτων εστωσαν γυναικες
20. Getting around the curse
Mary is of the blood line of David - required of the Messiah.
Mary marries within the tribe of Judah, to Joseph, providing a legal line from David - required of the King.
21. Genealogies
So the different genealogies of Matthew (legal line) and Luke (blood line) show the subtle clarity of scripture.
Matthew provides the legal line through David and down to Joseph
Luke provides the blood line though David and down to Mary
Jesus can inherit due to the exception provided to the daughters of Zelophehad.
22. Getting around the curse
Genealogies:
Matthew provides the legal line through David and down to Joseph
Luke provides the blood line though David and down to Mary
Jesus can inherit due to the exception provided to the daughters of Zelophehad.
This avoids the curse proclaimed by Jeremiah.
23. The sceptre shall not depart from Judah
24. Genesis 49:10
KJV: The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
Hebrew: לא יסור שבט מיהודה ומחקק מבין רגליו עד כי יבא שילה ולו יקהת עמים׃
Greek: ουκ εκλειψει αρχων εξ ιουδα και ηγουμενος εκ των μηρων αυτου εως αν ελθη τα αποκειμενα αυτω και αυτος προσδοκια εθνων
Within a few years after Herod the Great died, shortly after the birth of Jesus and after which Joseph and Mary returned from Nazareth, the Romans took control of Judea. In about 6 A.D., The Roman ruler Caponius removed the power of the sword (i.e., capital punishment) from the Jews, so that "
the scepter had departed from Judah".
25. John 18:31
KJV: Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:
Greek: ειπεν ουν αυτοις ο πιλατος λαβετε αυτον υμεις και κατα τον νομον υμων κρινατε αυτον ειπον ουν αυτω οι ιουδαιοι ημιν ουκ εξεστιν αποκτειναι ουδενα
Wycliffe: Thanne Pilat seith to hem, Take ye hym, and deme ye him, after youre lawe. And the Jewis seiden to hym, It is not leueful to vs to sle ony man;
Tyndale: Then sayd Pylate vnto the: take ye him and iudge him after youre awne lawe. Then the Iewes sayde vnto him. It is not lawfull for vs to put eny ma to deeth.
26. Caponius
It is recorded in the Babylonian Talmud that after the decision by Caponius to remove the power of the sword, the priests in Babylon morned the fact that the "scepter had departed from Judah" but Shiloh (the Messiah) had not come.
In the town of Nazareth, a carpenter boy was growing up - the Messiah.
