Matthew Chapter 1 – The Genealogy of Jesus

In this episode we dig into Matthew chapter 1 — the genealogy and the birth of Jesus. We’ll walk verse by verse through Matthew’s carefully structured family tree, examine why he organizes it the way he does, look at the surprising women named in the line, and unpack the announcement of Jesus’ name and the prophetic fulfillment of Isaiah 7:14. This is where Matthew sets the table for everything that follows.
