Galatians 3:7–9 ESV
7 Know then that it is those of faith who are the sons of Abraham. 8 And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, “In you shall all the nations be blessed.” 9 So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
STORY OF LEE STROBLE

Abraham

– Doesn’t trust God and get Hagar pregnant, who father’s Ishmael, who is the father of much of the unrest in the Middle East. He also Father’s Isaac, because God’s plans are never thwa
Then Isaac is the father of Jacob. We see in the story of Jacob and Esau that he actually swindles the birthright out from under Esau’s nose, and this is the way that he gets into the lineage of Jesus.
JACOB

Isaac

is the father of Jacob. We see in the story of Jacob and Esau that he actually swindles the birthright out from under Esau’s nose, and this is the way that he gets into the lineage of Jesus.
the father of Jacob. We see in the story of Jacob and Esau that he actually swindles the birthright out from under Esau’s nose, and this is the way that he gets into the lineage of Jesus.

Jacob

fathers Judah (with the wife he really didn’t want, Leah). So you have this situation where Jacob has 2 wives, and his wife Leah feels like Jacob does not love her, so she keeps getting pregnant and feeling like if she has more kids, then Jacob will love her. The back story is that Leah and Rachael’s father actually tricked Jacob into taking both of them to be wives because he was worried he would never get her married off. So all along Leah knows that Jacob wanted Rachael and not her. But from this despised wife comes the lineage of Christ.

Perez.

The story of this baby is again tragic. Tamar’s husband (Judah’s son) passes away and his brother refuses to impregnate her. Tamar is so frustrated and wants to have kids so badly that she disguises herself as a prostitute and has sex with Judah (her dead husbands father) and this is how Perez comes into the world – through this weird and deceitful interaction. The soap opera of the lineage of Jesus continues!

Nahshon fathers Salmon

Ruth

then Salmon fathers Boaz who ends up marrying Ruth. We can remember that Ruth was a Moabittess. Back in those days Moabittes were nasty, dirty, and known by everyone to be just that. This is equally a HUGE problem because she was a gentile, and God specifically forbids this is :
Deuteronomy 23:3–4 ESV
3 “No Ammonite or Moabite may enter the assembly of the Lord. Even to the tenth generation, none of them may enter the assembly of the Lord forever, 4 because they did not meet you with bread and with water on the way, when you came out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.
ESV. )

Rahab

Joshua 2:1 ESV
1 And Joshua the son of Nun sent two men secretly from Shittim as spies, saying, “Go, view the land, especially Jericho.” And they went and came into the house of a prostitute whose name was Rahab and lodged there.
Matthew 1:5 ESV
5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse,
Then Boaz and Ruth father Obed
Obed is then the father of Jesse who is the father of David.

David

and Bathsheba fathering Solomon who came from David lusting after Bathsheba, impregnating her, and killing her husband to cover it up.

Solomon

though God gives him much, decides to try out some new things, and ends up with thousands of prostitutes in his harem as King. He later repents in the book of Ecclesiastics.
Galatians 3:9 ESV
9 So then, those who are of faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.
