Description

By viewing David’s epic story in the context of the ancient Jewish culture, we will more fully understand how Mary, the mother of Jesus, would have viewed her famous ancestors and how David and Bathsheba’s life story impacted her own.
Interestingly, we will also see how many parallels can be drawn from David’s and Bathsheba’s life experiences to our own lives as well, even though we live nearly three-thousands years later. Through looking at David and Bathsheba in the context of the day, we will see how their lives served God’s glorious purpose, fitting into His Divine Masterplan which points forward to our eternal Savior, Jesus Christ.
It is the intent of this book to help us comprehend David’s story as would have been understood by Mary, a devout Jewish young woman who had been schooled in the Torah, the Tanakh, and Mosaic culture and law. Descending from the line of Judah and on through David, the renowned King of Israel, Mary would have been keenly aware of her ancestors, due to the keeping of accurate records which had existed for centuries. She also would have put their stories into context and understood them in a different light than the reader of today.
Through a greater comprehension of David’s story from a Jewish perspective, we in turn will discover more about our own Jewish-Christian roots, and gain greater insight about what God is trying to tell us through His Word.
Knowing our ancestry has always been a subject of interest to us as humans, and somewhat of an enigma. In the world in which we live in today, it is difficult to find connections to our past, which in some cases has been seemingly lost forever. To help us connect to our past in today’s complex world, many people invest in DNA analysis kits to determine their ancestral roots, searching for long-lost relatives that make up the family tree.
The need for knowing where we came from, and who are ancestors were, seems to be hard-wired in us as humans. As a result of DNA analysis, we may go to great lengths to contact a person who is said to be a relative based on a simple test that is a result of the technology of today.
The ancient Jewish people obviously did not have DNA kits to determine their ancestry. However, they were proud of their heritage, and kept extremely accurate records concerning their ancestors and the tribes of Israel from which they descended. Often referring to their grandfathers and great-great grandfathers as their ‘fathers’, the Jewish people were well-versed in the extensive history of their ancestors, as the records were legitimized in the Torah, and well-validated in Jewish legal documents.
In this installment in the series of Jesus’ ancestors, we will go behind the scenes and discover many hidden secrets about one of the most famous of all the ancient Jews in the Hebrew Bible, being David, the shepherd-boy who became king.
Of course, we will also delve deep and discover hidden secrets about his wife, Bathsheba, as she is the woman who produced the offspring that were ancestors of Jesus.
How will we discover their hidden secrets?
Of course, they aren’t really secrets, as God wants us to deeply explore His Word.
