Will The World End After Fourteen Generations?
Secondly, Matthew shows that Jesus came at the right time. Matthew shows that between Abraham the father of faith and King David there are fourteen generations. Then between David and the Babylonian exile, there are fourteen generations. Between the end of Babylonian exile and the coming of Jesus, there are fourteen generations. Jesus came at a precise time. That precision shows that God was purposeful in sending Jesus. Therefore Jesus is the Messiah because He came at the right time. Apostle Paul also reiterates that Jesus came at the right time, Galatians 4:4.
