Matthew 1 vs 6
And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
- Mathew 1 narrates the earthly ancestry of Jesus.
- The ancestry was from Abraham to Jacob (Jacob was the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and the mother of Jesus).
- In verse 6, the Bible writers paused and reminded us that David, one of the ancestors of Jesus, was the father of Solomon, whose mother was Uriah’s wife.
- The Bible reminded us in this verse that one of Jesus’ ancestors (in the person of David) was a wife snatcher. David snatched Uriah’s wife
- The Bible reminded us in the verse that Solomon (Jesus’s ancestor) was born out of wedlock and an adulterous relationship.
- The Bible reminded us in this verse that David (Jesus’ ancestor) murdered Solomon’s stepfather to take his wife.
- In summary, Jesus was a descendant of an adulterous relationship.
What are the lessons?
- Do not be quiet to condemn and judge that brother or sister that backslid into sin or indulged in sexual sin.
- Do not condemn or judge that sister or brother that committed adultery or premarital sex.
- God can still use anyone that repents. Christ came to save sinners.
Prayer
- I am delivered from the judgemental spirit in Jesus’ name.
- I refuse to condemn myself in Jesus’ name.
