What does Luke 3:33 mean?
The genealogy given by Luke establishes that Jesus is a descendant of David (Luke 3:31). He continues, however, to emphasize that Jesus is fully human. This corresponds to Luke's theme that Christ's gospel is for all people in all the world. The genealogy given in this part of Luke (Luke 3:32) is identical to that presented in the book of Ruth, showing the men who preceded David (Ruth 4:18–22).Perez is one of the sons of Judah (Genesis 38:29), and a grandson of the patriarch of all Israel, Jacob (Genesis 35:10). Judah was not Jacob's firstborn (Genesis 29:34–35), but he quickly became prominent among his brothers—not always for the best reasons (Genesis 37:26–27; 44:18, 33).
