Why are there differences between Matthew and Luke's genealogies of Jesus in the New Testament? Are these differences mistakes or are they meant to communicate something? What is the significance of the number 14 in Matthews genealogy and the number 77 in Luke's? Why are there four women listed in Jesus' lineage who are all in some way related to the same category of sin? Join us to find out why genealogies are not as boring as they've been made out to be, and how they are actually packed with theology and purpose.
Check out the next episode as we look at a potential date for Jesus’ birth and who the Magi were!
