I hope so because your argument sucks.
Quote:Theolpus was a man who sent Luke to find out about Christ. Theo was not a Jew. So the to him to understand why jesus could be tied to the line of David through his father joseph when joseph was not genetically related to him would have made no sense, as he would not have grown up in that culture.
Assertion: it would have not made sense because of his culture.
Assumption: he needed to understand how Jesus was literally the son of David.
Assumption: Jesus was thought to be the literal son of David in synoptic gospels.
Quote:So Luke tied Jesus to david by his blood line through marry thus full filling the prophecy.
This is pure question begging. The issue is whether or not Luke tied the line through Mary and here you go assuming that he did.
Give me something like "The verse in Luke should be understood to be tracing through Mary's line and not Josephs because of A, B, C etc."
Quote:...For they hated Christ and the movement that lead jews to worship Him. We know Matthew recordes Joseph's blood line. which only leaves Mary in this equasion for luke to have recorded.
Or they both represent two different guesses (or traditions) by the writers as to Jesus' ancestry through the father, which is what it naturally reads as.
