Joseph, the son of Jacob
Just two in the Bible; one in Genesis and one in Matthew.
Despite his amazing and lengthy story, the GenJoseph is NOT in the pedigree of Jesus -- instead it was Judah, 4th son of Leah, who was given the honor of hosting the House of Judah. Ps132:11 refers.
However, the MtJoseph WAS in the pedigree of Jesus -- he was the FATHER of Mary, and she was his only daughter. Luke3 is the genealogy of Mary's husband IAW Numb36:6.
The name Jacob means 'supplanted', Gen27:36, (to take the place of..), and the only two Jacobs in the Bible are the one with the 12 sons in Genesis, and the stranger in Mt 1:16 who just precedes Joseph and Mary.
Noah#10 was "perfect in his generations", Gen6:9, and so apparently was Abram#20 and Boaz#30, but Ruth4:18 SKIPS three names before listing the 3rd group of ten generations leading to David#33.
Obviously a precept for the three groups of fourteen in Matthew, wouldn't you say? :thumb:
