Quote:The genealogy in Luke is Mary's, thus Heli was the father-in-law of Joseph. The genealogy in Matthew is Joseph's and Jacob was his father. Luke gives prominence to women in his gospel, it thus is why he used Mary's genealogy and during those times it would have been natural for Joseph's father-in-law to call him son.
You are an embarrassment even to apologists, G-C. That takes some doing. You don't even know your own bullshit.
Quote:Luke 3:23-25
King James Version (KJV)
23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,
24 Which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Janna, which was the son of Joseph,
25 Which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Amos, which was the son of Naum, which was the son of Esli, which was the son of Nagge, yada, yada, yada....
and....
Quote: "yada, yada, yada...."
15 Elihud the father of Eleazar,
Eleazar the father of Matthan,
Matthan the father of Jacob,
16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and Mary was the mother of Jesus who is called the Messiah.
Matty 1
One says "Jacob" was the father of "Joseph" and the other says that "Joseph" was the son of "Heli." That is pretty much the same shit. At the best case, one of these books of holy horseshit of yours must be wrong...of course, the odds are that both are bullshit.
BTW, you clowns are the ones who maintain that "Joseph" never nailed her. Remember? It is supposed to be your god who knocked her up.
