He primarily focuses on what Jesus SAID. His Genaology shows Jesus' "pedigree," beginning with ABRAHAM, who was promised a seed through which all the nations would be blessed. From there he traces it through the line of promise through Isaac and Jacob, and then through Judah, the royal line to Joseph going from David to his son Solomon, and so on. However, during the period of Kings, they got so wicked and corrupt that God pronounced a blood curse on the line. This presents a problem, because messiah was promised to be of the house of David. For many, this would have destroyed the messianic hope. However, God gave AHAZ a sign, saying that the virgin would conceive... Luke was a physician, and was interested in displaying Christ's humanity. He concentrated specifically on what Jesus FELT. He traces the DNA from ADAM to Mary, making a "left turn" at David through his OTHER son Nathan. Therefore, by marriage, Jesus is of the royal line through joseph, and still born of the house of David as was promised. A while ago, I listened to a chuck missler tape that goes through some of this, and he went through the translations of the names for the first 10 people in the genealogy from Adam to Noah. Building on that, a friend of mine translated the rest of the genealogy of christ as it's laid out in the bible.. pretty interesting, so here's what he came up with (hope you're interested..)

ADAM	MAN	SHEM	HIS HONORED NAME
SETH	APPOINTED	APPHASHAD	SPREAD
ENOSH	MORTAL	SALAH	BRANCH, WEAPON
KENAN	SORROW	EBER	CROSS
MAHALEL	BLESSED GOD	PELEG	EARTHQUAKE
JARED	SHALL COME DOWN	REU	FRIEND, RULER
ENOCH	TEACHING	SERUG	BRING TOGETHER
METHUS..	HIS DEATH SHALL BRING
LAMECH	LAMENTABLE
NOAH	HOPE

NAHOR	SNORT, ROAR	HEZRON	COURT, TOWER
TERAH	PLACE, ABODE	RAM	HIGH, RAISED
ABRAHAM	FATHER OF NATIONS	AMMINADAB	PEOPLE OF FREEDOM
ISAAC	LAUGHTER, JOY	NASHON	CLOTHING, RAIMENT
ISRAEL	RULES AS GOD	BOAZ	STRENGTH, MIGHT
JUDAH	CELEBRATE, PRAISE	OBED	SERVE
PAHREZ/ZARAH	BREACH/RISING	JESSE	EXTEND
DAVID	BELOVED
SOLOMON	PEACE
(JEDIDIAH)	BELOVED OF YAH

(Gen 5;Gen 10,11; ICh 1-3; MT 1:1-16; LU 3:23-38) Man was appointed mortal sorrow. The blessed God shall come down, teaching that his death shall bring lamentable hope. By his honored name, he spreads forth the branches of his cross like a weapon. The earth shakes as our mighty ruler and friend brings us together! Then he snorts, roaring out of the place of his abode. Laughing with joy, he prevails. Ruling as God, he is celebrated and praised, having risen from the breach. From his court towers the Most High freed his people the deceiving enchater, clothing them with a raiment of strength and might. He extended himself to serve his beloved. Peace to the Beloved of God! For the split in the bloodlines, I'm just going to put the translations he came up with. I'm typing this from a sheet of paper because I don't have the original file handy, and it's taking forever. I encourage any language experts to look these up and check these out. ..we're certainly not language experts, so you might get somewhat of a different rendering, if not more accurate ..these were a bit more difficult for us... I think they are letters from a kinsman and a bridegroom, one appears to be to Israel and one appears to be the church.
