This genealogy traces the lineage of Jesus through His legal father, Joseph, back to Adam, emphasizing Jesus' rightful place in the line of David and His fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies concerning the Messiah. • Theological Significance: The inclusion of Acheim in the genealogy highlights the continuity of God's redemptive plan through history. Each name in the genealogy serves as a testament to God's faithfulness in preserving the line through which the Savior would come.
