Jesus' Family Tree: Seeing God's Faithfulness In The Genealogy Of Christ

Jesus' Family Tree - Download Only

I had the privilege of a sneak peek of the first chapter of this title from Rose Publishing. It is organized well with colorful charts and lineage posters. All those year of reading the "begots" in the Old Testament were not that interesting to me until I discovered the importance of learning the heritage and lineage of Jesus. One page shows genealogy from the books of Luke and Matthew from Adam through Jesus. The attractive chart sharing the different viewpoints from each of the four gospels was simple and understandable. I enjoy the segmented table because it shows all the brothers and their offspring. Genesis means beginning.  We are lead through the story of Adam and Eve in the garden. Full color photographs pepper each page. One large chart showing the traits of God in a comparison with the traits of Jesus illustrates that Jesus was divine and as well as human. Another page compares Adam and Jesus. The sins of the parents and the sins of the Cain are shown in parallel. Descendants for Cain and Seth are well done.  It is so wonderful of God to share His plan from the beginning for our salvation through Jesus Christ.
