  • Summary

  • Scientist and genealogist, Dr. Nancy Dawson, is back on this episode of The Stone Chapel Podcast
    to talk about another “grandmother” of Jesus. Bathsheba is not named in Matthew’s genealogy of
    Jesus (Matthew 1). She is referred to as “the wife of Uriah.” David fathered Solomon “through the
    wife of Uriah.” Matthew’s comment on the genealogy echoes the scandalous episode in King
    David’s life when he took the wife of another man and then had him killed. Jesus’ ancestry is not
    squeaky clean. No, his family consisted of deeply flawed and troubled people who needed to be
    forgiven and redeemed. No wonder, Jesus was called a friend of sinners.

    Next week Nancy returns to talk about Mary, the mother of Jesus.

    Dr. Dawson is author of an important book, "All the Genealogies of the Bible" (Zondervan
    Academic).
