Power Read The Bible In 60 Days With Jeff Anderson

DAY 3 OF 60

Day 3

GREAT, GREAT, GREAT, GREAT… GRANDFATHER

[Scheduled Reading: Genesis 40 – Exodus 7]

Have you ever wondered how many generations there are from Adam to JesusChrist (akathe Second Adam)?

Approximately 65. That’s right. It’s not a thousand, or ten thousand, or a million.

As I shared yesterday, Genesis 5 gives us the ten generations from Adam to Noah. Genesis 11 gives us another ten generations to Abraham. And throughout the rest of the Bible you’ll come across genealogy records charting the course of human history.

As we continue in our read, often it helps for me to ask myself, “Why is this story here?” 

Often, it’s simply because God is leaving us a trail of the family tree.

Like the bizarre story you just read in Genesis 38 of Judah, who went to a prostitute, who unbeknownst to him was his daughter-in-law, Tamar! (Yeah, crazy.) So why’s that story there?

Maybe in keeping with God’s pattern of tracking The Seed—the family tree from Adam to Christ. Jesus comes from Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah... then baby Perez, the child of Tamar. 

We'll encounter other stories along the way that are in the Bible simply to account for the genealogy of Jesus Christ.

There’s a cool genealogy poster available at Creation Ministries International that I have found very helpful. It’s an amazing collection of records from the Bible, and the mention of every single father in the line from Adam to Christ, and the applicable verse reference. 

I highly recommend having this at home for further study and reference as you grow more familiar with the Bible. https://usstore.creation.com/genealogy-poster

Ok raft-mates, oars in the water. Time to paddle on.
