Luke’s genealogy shows Jesus’ lineage from Mary’s line (at least likely) and shows a kingly designation, though through Nathan’s line and not Solomon’s. There is a priestly feel to this genealogy, at least from the names and makes one wonder if Joseph’s lime had “king” covered and Mary the priestly side. Jesus was both, as mentioned in Hebrews and parts of Paul’s writings. He was a priestly King and we are fortunate to have Him on our side.
