Next Episode: 011: Concluding Matthew 1
Finally in this episode I get to answer the question: Why does the
genealogy in Matthew chapter one refer to five stories of how particular
heirs were produced in a particular way by particular patriarchs from
particular mothers ...? So why five? Why five stories? Is there some
pattern?
Last time in episode nine I compared the first story with the
final the fifth story so this time in episode 10 I'm concentrating on
the middle three stories and how do they fit the overall pattern; particularly the middle of the middle story: the story of how Boaz
produced Obed from Ruth.
