I find in Matthew and Luke what purport to be the genealogies of Christ. Matthew gives his ancestry back to Abraham; Luke goes back to Adam. Between Christ and David, Matthew gives 27 generations, and Luke gives 42; and none of the names in these two lists are the same. Will you please explain this seeming genealogy discrepancy?
