VERS. XVI.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉
And Iacob begat Ioseph the husband of Mary.
:〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉f 1.1The mothers family is not to be called a family. Hence the reason may very easily be given, why Matthew brings down the generation to Joseph, Maries husband; but Luke to Eli, Maries Father. These two frame the Genea∣logy two ways, according to the double notion of the promise of Christ. For he is promised, as the Seed of the Woman, and as the Son of David: that as a man, this as a King. It was therefore needful in setting down his Genealogy, that satisfaction should be given concerning both. Therefore Luke declareth him the promised seed of the Wo∣man, deducing his Mothers stock, from whence man was born, from Adam. Matthew exhibits his Royal Original, deriving his pedegree along through the Royal family of David to Joseph his (reputed) Father.
