“So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations.”
Matthew 1:17 KJV
This indicates that there are forty two generations from Abraham to Christ, though when the names are counted there are only forty one. The forty second generation is Jesus giving birth to it at the Cross when Blood and Water flowed from His side as He birthed the Church. The first Adam “birthed” his wife out of his side, and so the last Adam - Jesus, gave birth to His Bride from His wounded side. Jesus desires to reproduce Himself in us. Christ is the Anointed One - now a corporate body - the Body of Christ. We, as the Body of Christ, are also anointed ones. Let the redeemed of the Lord say that we are anointed by the Anointed One and carry His anointing in our lives. Glory to God!
