1 Chronicles 1:34
9/29/2026
Abraham was the father of Isaac. The sons of Isaac: Esau and Israel.
The genealogy is being preserved for the new Temple in Jerusalem, that the line of the messiah may be preserved until he comes. Twins appear on the scene, and the line to be followed changes from technically the firstborn to Jacob, his brother, who is mentioned by the new name God gave to him, even Israel. Some descendants of Esau are recorded, in order to account for some of the nations that came into being because God had promised that Abraham would be the father of many nations, but the focus on Israel will pick up in the next chapter, and the line will continue from there. The record keeps looking forward to the Son of David, the Desire of the Ages, the longed-for Redeemer, the yearned-for Messiah, the Hope of Israel, even Jesus.
