	The seed of Abraham descended unto David, the seed of David descended unto the Lord Jesus Christ, which has been established by the orthodox writers of Matthew through the descent and lineage of Joseph, even while Joseph is disclaimed as being the real father of Jesus. It is a contradiction, but nevertheless considered a necessity by Matthew, who had the physical orientation in his attitude toward the gospel. But the real descent of the light of David, the seed of David, incarnated as Jesus Christ is that it is the very same living soul who first incarnated as the temporal king wearing the temporal crown of Israel, yet bearing his sins, who reincarnated to be the king in the spiritual sense who declares, “My kingdom is not of this world.”<ref>John 18:36.</ref>		The seed of Abraham descended unto David, the seed of David descended unto the Lord Jesus Christ, which has been established by the orthodox writers of Matthew through the descent and lineage of Joseph, even while Joseph is disclaimed as being the real father of Jesus.

	The seed of Abraham descended unto David, the seed of David descended unto the Lord Jesus Christ, which has been established by the orthodox writers of Matthew through the descent and lineage of Joseph, even while Joseph is disclaimed as being the real father of Jesus. It is a contradiction, but nevertheless considered a necessity by Matthew, who had the physical orientation in his attitude toward the gospel. But the real descent of the light of David, the seed of David, incarnated as Jesus Christ is that it is the very same living soul who first incarnated as the temporal king wearing the temporal crown of Israel, yet bearing his sins, who reincarnated to be the king in the spiritual sense who declares, “My kingdom is not of this world.”<ref>John 18:36.</ref>		The seed of Abraham descended unto David, the seed of David descended unto the Lord Jesus Christ, which has been established by the orthodox writers of Matthew through the descent and lineage of Joseph, even while Joseph is disclaimed as being the real father of Jesus.
