JESUS family pt. 6

[Elder-Shawn Denise Briscoe]

Here are the final ancestors of our LORD JESUS; there is nothing written of these folks; however, notice how the ancestors of King David never broke because Zerubbabel had two sons who are mentioned Abiud who is found in the book of Matthew and Rhesa who is found in the book of Luke.

 

Shealtiel /father of Zerubbabel; Ezra 3:2, 8; Neh. 12:1

 

Zerubbabel /set up an alter for The LORD GOD; laid the foundation of the temple which had been destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar. Zerubbabel is a descendent of the royal line of David.  Ezra 3:8-13; 4-6
