Furthermore, we will view their lives as was seen through their eyes as well as their descendant, Mary, the mother of the Messiah, Jesus Christ.

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.
