sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah. (Jeremiah 22:24–30, emphasis mine) That pretty much sums it up, doesn’t it? None of Coniah’s seed would ever prosper on the throne of David. (“Coniah” is the same king called and in other parts of the Scripture.) Yet the Bible is “Jechonias” “Jechoniah” perfectly clear that someday Yeshua will very much prosper and rule from the throne of David. Take a look at the previous chart once more, and you will find that Coniah (Jechonias)is one of the kings listed by Matthew. His father, Jehoiakim, is one of our four infamous missing kings. If Jeremiah 22 is to be taken at face value, then Yeshua’s physical line could not have come through Joseph in Matthew 1. It have come through Mary, the daughter must of Heli, as given in Luke 3. The Daughter of Heli Okay, so we have evidence that shows which list is not the lineage of Yeshua. Is there any other confirming evidence to show that Luke 3 is in fact the lineage of Yeshua through Mary? I believe there is. Luke 3:23 states that Yeshua was the son of Joseph, the son of Heli. The word “supposed” translated supposed” is from the Greek which means was nomizo, “the “as the custom” in the sense of a legal custom. In other words, Joseph was the legal father of Yeshua, not his literal father. In this case, Joseph, the legal father of Yeshua, represented his wife Mary in the lineage, while Heli was in fact Mary’s father. Remarkably, we have at least one historical source which may confirm that Mary was the daughter of Heli. This source, which is in some dispute, comes from the Talmud and references Mary as the daughter of Heli. Due to the graphic nature of the quote I didn’t feel comfortable reproducing it here. With an Internet search, you can investigate and decide for yourself. (The source is the Talmud, Haggigah 77:4, as referenced by John Lightfoot’s Commentary on the New Testament from the Talmud and chapter 3, upon the Evangelist St. Luke.”) Hebraica, “Exercitations
