In episode 3, I try to answer two questions about verse 17 of Matthew chapter 1...
Why is it structured in three parts? and,
Why is it of equal proportions?
Short Answer: The structure of the genealogy is a three-part mythic paradigm of cosmic proportions.
Part 1 examines the pattern of kingship, exile, and Christos.
Part 2 examines the cosmic proportions (apocalyptic dimensions), touching on the issue of divine providence.
