Matthew 1

Matthew 1

• Reading through this chapter, it is fairly easy to glaze over the names of the genealogy. But I took note that was David's grandmother. Rahab was Ruth's mother-in-law, once she married Boaz... interesting.
• There isn't too much in the Bible about Joseph, but here is a bit about him. This passage shows his obedience to God. It does say that he was faithful to the law, so he is a servant of God.

Isaiah 7:13-16

Then Isaiah said, “Hear now, you house of David! Is it not enough to try the patience of humans? Will you try the patience of my God also? Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. He will be eating curds and honey when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, for before the boy knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, the land of the two kings you dread will be laid waste.
