Matthew 1:17

---

← Matthew 1:16	Matthew 1:17 (KJV)	Matthew 1:18 →
And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.	So all the generations from Abraham to David [are] fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon [are] fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ [are] fourteen generations.	Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
