Matthew 1:9 is the ninth verse of the first chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the Bible. The verse is part of the non-synoptic section where the genealogy of Joseph, the legal father of Jesus, is listed, or on non-Pauline interpretations the genealogy of Jesus. The purpose of the genealogy is to show descent from the line of kings, in particular David, as the Messiah was predicted to be the son of David (2 Samuel 7:12; Psalms 89:3, 132:11, among others), and descendant of Abraham (Genesis 12:3; 22:18) . In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads: :And Ozias begat Joatham; :and Joatham begat Achaz; :and Achaz begat Ezekias; The World English Bible translates the passage as: :Uzziah became the father of Jotham. :Jotham became the father of Ahaz. :Ahaz became the father of Hezekiah. For a collection of other versions see (BibRef Matthew 1:9 ) ==Analysis== This part (the second section - David to the Babylon Removal - as summarized in Matthew 1:17) of the list of Jesus' ancestry coincides with the list of the Kings of Judah that is present in a number of other parts of the Bible,. Unlike other parts of Matthew's genealogy this list is fully in keeping with the other sources. Uzziah, was King of Judah (809 BC - 759 BC) (Amos 1:1) . According to William F. Albright, Jotham ruled from 742 BC until 735 BC and his son Ahaz ruled from his death until 715 BC. Ahaz's son Hezekiah ruled from 715 BC to 687 BC. Hezekiah was the king whose actions prompted the Babylonians to take the Jews into captivity, as prophesied in Isaiah 38 and mentioned in the genealogy at Verse 11. Hezekiah had fifteen years added to his lifespan by God, due to his piety. These kings are also listed in 2 Kings 14-16, together with narrative about their reigns. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Matthew 1:9」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
