Matthew: Matthew 1:1 by ric gustafson
Jesus Christ comes from the Greek words Iesous Christos. The original Hebrew is Yeshua Ha Mashiach. Yeshua means Yahweh saves. Ha Mashiach means the anointed. Matthew in this first verse says that Jesus was the Son of David. When Matthew uses son of David and son of Abraham, he is referring to Jesus. Jesus is the true King of Israel. Jesus will bring salvation to the nations. Matthew uses verse 1 to set the stage for the rest of his gospel. Praise Jesus's name.
