17 Cosí, da Abraamo fino a Davide sono in tutto quattordici generazioni; da Davide fino alla deportazione in Babilonia, quattordici generazioni; e dalla deportazione in Babilonia fino a Cristo, quattordici generazioni.

Nascita di Gesú Cristo

18 (C)La nascita di Gesú Cristo avvenne in questo modo.
Maria, sua madre, era stata promessa sposa a Giuseppe e, prima che fossero venuti a stare insieme, si trovò incinta per opera dello Spirito Santo.
19 Giuseppe, suo marito, che era uomo giusto e non voleva esporla a infamia, si propose di lasciarla segretamente. 20 Ma mentre aveva queste cose nell'animo, un angelo del Signore gli apparve in sogno, dicendo: «Giuseppe, figlio di Davide, non temere di prendere con te Maria, tua moglie; perché ciò che in lei è generato, viene dallo Spirito Santo. 21 Ella partorirà un figlio, e tu gli porrai nome Gesú[c], perché è lui che salverà il suo popolo dai loro peccati».

22 Tutto ciò avvenne, affinché si adempisse quello che era stato detto dal Signore per mezzo del *profeta:

23 «La vergine[d] sarà incinta e partorirà un figlio,
al quale sarà posto nome Emmanuele[e]»,
che tradotto vuol dire: «Dio con noi».

24 Giuseppe, destatosi dal sonno, fece come l'angelo del Signore gli aveva comandato e prese con sé sua moglie; 25 e non ebbe con lei rapporti coniugali[f] finché ella non ebbe partorito un figlio[g]; e gli pose nome Gesú.

Footnotes

  1. Matteo 1:1 Gesú, gr. Iesoú dall'ebr. Yeshua`, forma posteriore rispetto a Yehoshua` che equivale a il Signore salva. È interessante notare che Yahweh corrisponde alla vocalizzazione del Tetragramma (Yhwh) documentata dai masoreti in un periodo molto lontano rispetto a quello dell'Antico Testamento, cioè a partire dal VI secolo dell'era cristiana. In realtà i masoreti erano consapevoli che si era fatto ricorso al termine Yahweh, che non corrisponde alla dizione originale, per evitare di pronunciare il nome di Dio, forse, per un eccesso di zelo.
  2. Matteo 1:1 Cristo, gr. Christós, lett. unto, è termine di derivazione greca e corrisponde alla parola ebr. tradotta con Messia.
  3. Matteo 1:21 Gesú, vd. nota Mt 1:1.
  4. Matteo 1:23 Vergine, traduzione letterale dal gr. parthénos di Mt 1:23 che, a sua volta, è la citazione di Is 7:14 (secondo la versione Septuaginta). Qui è bene ricordare che le citazioni dell'Antico Testamento, riportate nel Nuovo Testamento, sono prese dalla versione Septuaginta, che è l'antica traduzione del testo ebraico in lingua greca. Cfr. la nostra versione di Is 7:14, dove giovane è traduzione letterale dell'ebr. `almah; in riferimento a tale termine, la caratteristica di verginità è chiaramente dedotta dal contesto. Infatti i traduttori, ebrei, della Septuaginta non hanno esitato a tradurre tale termine con parthénos, cioè vergine.
  5. Matteo 1:23 +Is 7:14.
  6. Matteo 1:25 Non… rapporti coniugali, lett. non la conobbe.
  7. Matteo 1:25 Finché … un figlio; alcuni mss. leggono: «… finch'ella non ebbe partorito il suo figlio primogenito». cfr. Luca 2:7.

The Genealogy of Jesus Christ

The book of the genealogy of [a]Jesus [b]Christ, (A)the son of David, (B)the son of Abraham:

Abraham [c]was the father of Isaac,
and Isaac was the father of Jacob,
and Jacob was the father of [d]Judah and his brothers.
And Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar,
and (C)Perez was the father of Hezron,
and Hezron was the father of [e]Ram.
And Ram was the father of Amminadab,
and Amminadab was the father of Nahshon,
and Nahshon was the father of Salmon.
And Salmon was the father of Boaz by Rahab,
and Boaz was the father of Obed by Ruth,
and Obed was the father of Jesse.
And Jesse was the father of David the king.
And David (D)was the father of Solomon by [f]the wife of Uriah.
And Solomon (E)was the father of Rehoboam,
and Rehoboam was the father of Abijah,
and Abijah was the father of [g]Asa.
And Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat,
and Jehoshaphat was the father of [h]Joram,
and Joram was the father of Uzziah.
And Uzziah was the father of [i]Jotham,
and Jotham was the father of Ahaz,
and Ahaz was the father of Hezekiah.
10 And Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh,
and Manasseh was the father of [j]Amon,
and Amon was the (F)father of Josiah.
11 And Josiah was the father of [k]Jeconiah and his brothers, at the time of the (G)deportation to Babylon.
12 And after the (H)deportation to Babylon:
Jeconiah was the father of [l]Shealtiel,
and Shealtiel was the father of Zerubbabel.
13 And Zerubbabel was the father of [m]Abihud,
and Abihud was the father of Eliakim,
and Eliakim was the father of Azor.
14 And Azor was the father of Zadok,
and Zadok was the father of Achim,
and Achim was the father of Eliud.
15 And Eliud was the father of Eleazar,
and Eleazar was the father of Matthan,
and Matthan was the father of Jacob.
16 And Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom Jesus was born, (I)who is called [n]Christ.

17 Therefore all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the (J)deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the (K)deportation to Babylon to [o]the Christ, fourteen generations.

The Conception and Birth of Jesus

18 Now the birth of Jesus [p]Christ was as follows: when His (L)mother Mary had been [q]betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was (M)found to be with child by the Holy Spirit. 19 And Joseph her husband, being a righteous man and not wanting to disgrace her, planned [r](N)to send her away secretly. 20 But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the [s]Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “(O)Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for [t]the One who has been [u]conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 And she will bear a Son; and (P)you shall call His name Jesus, for [v]He (Q)will save His people from their sins.” 22 Now all this [w]took place in order that what was (R)spoken by the [x]Lord through the prophet would be fulfilled, saying, 23 (S)Behold, the virgin shall be with (T)child and shall bear a Son, and they shall call His name [y]Immanuel,” which translated means, “(U)God with us.” 24 And Joseph got up from his sleep and did as the angel of the [z]Lord commanded him, and took Mary as his wife, 25 [aa]but kept her a virgin until she [ab](V)gave birth to a Son; and (W)he called His name Jesus.

The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren;

And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;

And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon;

And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse;

And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;

And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa;

And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias;

And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias;

10 And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias;

11 And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon:

12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;

13 And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor;

14 And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud;

15 And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob;

16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

17 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.

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privily.

20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins.

22 Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,

23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.

24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife:

25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name Jesus.
