February 2, read the Bible in a year in PowerPoint; commented.

Matthew 1 tells of the spiritual genealogy of Jesus, starting with Abraham. Joseph was of the kingly line of David and he; not being the physical father, adopted Jesus after having a dream that it was okay to take Mary as his wife. It then tells of the birth of Jesus. It also tells of Mary remaining a virgin until after Jesus’ birth.

Exodus 14 describes the miraculous crossing of the Red Sea and how the pursuing Egyptian army drowned.

Exodus 15 contains the songs of Moses and Miriam as God delivered them from the Egyptians. As the wandering began they arrived at the bitter waters of Marah and the sweet waters of Elim.

The genealogy of Jesus in Matthew is from the kingly line of David, starting with Abraham. However, God declared the kingly line cut off and there will never be another king from David’s line. This is why it is so important that Jesus was adopted by Josef. Joseph was in line for the kingdom, but ineligible. Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, which made him eligible to be both King and God. The genealogy according to Luke is the genealogy of Mary, also of the line of David, but not the kingly line. It starts with Adam, establishing Jesus as man.

The greek Septuagint translation: παρθένος, parthenos: a maiden, a virgin

The Hebrew word  הָעַלְמָ֗ה hā-‘al-māh, is properly translated virgin, but it can also mean a young woman, which in those days meant the same thing, age is of no importance, virginity is.
