About this listen
In this episode, Steve Wood opens the Gospel of Matthew by unpacking the genealogy of Jesus Christ, revealing it as the key to understanding Matthew’s entire message. Matthew deliberately anchors Jesus in history as the Son of Abraham and the Son of David, proclaiming Him as the promised King of the world, not merely a spiritual figure.
We explore how Matthew’s genealogy highlights Jesus’ royal lineage, fulfills God’s covenant with David (2 Samuel 7), and frames the gospel as a royal announcement—the true euangelion—that God’s everlasting King has come. From Matthew 1 to Matthew 28, the theme is clear: all authority in heaven and on earth belongs to Jesus Christ, and the nations are called to bow before Him.
