The direct ancestorsin the lineage of Jesus from Abraham to the Exile!
His lineage in Mark and in Luke is easily available to all. What is generally not available are the Old Testament references to his earthly forbearers. This list is but the first 28 of his generations/ancestors 14 from Abraham to the exile. I will later add the last 14 generations with their O.T.references and the Strongs Numbers.
Note: The #'s before the various names are numbers assigned by my Brothers Keeper Geneology Program to track generations. The #s after the names are program tracking numbers and are used as unique id numbers in order to find and trace the right name. Biblical Passages in [quotes] and refer to the passages that corroborate and personalize the lineages as given by Matthew and Luke.They are generally in order of their first occurrence of searching for their names in my Bible CD ROM.
Wives names ie m. D #9 unless given in full ie m. SARAH are assigned letters or a combination of numbers to satisfy the requirements of the geneology program and allow correcting later when and if discovered.

30 SHEALTIEL #344 [1CH 3:17]
31 ZERUBBABEL #350 [1CH 3:19 JER 22]
The mystery surrounding the 28th generation and JECHONIAH #338:
1CH 3:17 Born before the exile to Babylon and name changed to
Jehoiachin after captivity. The great confusion in lineage is explained in Jer 22:28-30.
He was to be recorded as childless. The lineage is then given to Shealtiel
and down through Zerubabel, despite Pedaiah fathering Zerubbabel. This had given me much trouble until my eyes finally saw the
reference to Jeremiah
