• David, Abraham.
• Jesus will fulfill the promise given to Abraham and David.

give this land." (to Abraham)
• “I will raise up your descendant, one of your own sons, to succeed you,
and I will establish his kingdom. He will build a house for my name, and
I will make his dynasty permanent.” (to David)

4. 2. Why does the author mention David and Abraham? (hint: Gen 12:1-3,
Gal 3:16, 1 John 5:11-13, 2 Sam 7:12-13, Rev 11:15) ?
• The promise of blessing to Abraham was fulfilled as the life was given
through Him.

5. 3. How many women are in the genealogy? What are their names?
• Five.

• Jesus was a descendant of woman.

7. 5. What will Jesus do?

King Jesus will do the same. But the enemy is Sin and Death.

• The Israelites doubted if they were still God’s people as they saw their
situation. If we focus on visible circumstances, we will doubt if God still
loves me.

understand for His goal is different from ours. Rather, He asks us to
believe that He is with us no matter the circumstance.

promises in OT, you would understand better the message of Matthew.

13. 4. When Jesus came to the world, God used people who were not
powerful in the world, like Joseph, Mary, and the wise men. There were
many moments when God’s plan seemed to fail. However, God was in
control of everything. Through his minimal intervention to the moments,
he accomplished his purpose. How did God help them when they were
in trouble?
• 요셉이 마리아를 데리고 오는 것을 주저할때 천사가 나타나 성령의
역사임을 확신시켜 주심.

18. 4. Jesus’ baptism as a sinless man means his identification with sinners.
Why does Jesus do this way? (hint: John 1:29)
• 우리의 죄를 지고 가시기 위함입니다. 죄인된 우리의 죄를
지심으로 우리와 연합하심을 나타냅니다.
• “모든 의를 이루기 위해 필요함” 구약의 율법에서 요구하는 의를
충족하시기 위해서. 예수님의 세례는 구약에서 신약으로
넘어가는 단계에서 필요한 것임?
