Notes |
- W. Betham: Genealogical Tables - Tables 20, 21 & 22 shows Mary the Virgin
as The dau of Heli. Joseph her husband (and also 1st Cousin), as the son of
Jacob (Heli's brother).
James E Talmadge in his book "Jesus The Christ" expresses his opinion
- That Mary was the Dau of Jacob (page 89).
Albert Schmuhl in his chart "One Royal Line" revised the pedigree to show Mary as dau of Jacob.
Smith's Bible Dictionary says " Mary was heir to her father Jacob" pp 210,322-323.
On Page 210 "Genealogy of Jesus Christ" Mary is shown as dau of Jacob and Joseph of Heli.
Both Heli and Jacob married Anna dau of Joiada each had a daughter
named Mary ? so in scripture one is identified as the Virgin and the other
"Sister of the Virgin". The practice among the Jews of Levirate law or the
Marrying of a brothers wife to raise up seed to the brother and to maintain
Inheritance within the Family creates an almost impossible task for the
Genealogist and Historian to separate specific lines of descent. (See Eusebius
Ecclesiastical History - pp 21,23) Hegesippus calls Joseph and Clopus or
Cleophus brothers by reason of marriage (Bro's in law) wherein Mary and her sister Mary
were literal (half) sisters by the same mother ? W. Betham shows Cleophus as a son of
Jacob and a natural Brother of Joseph, the husband of Mary the Virgin. The wife of Cleophus as
Mary, sister of the Virgin, and daughter of a Cleophus whose ancestry is unidentified.
Matthew 13: 55 shows at least 4 brothers of the Lord Jesus, and there are
other indications that there were at least 3 sisters. [See Bible Dictionary p. 627] If they
were children of Mary the Sister of the Virgin they would have been cousins not brothers.
Eusebius following Africanus states that Eli brother of Jacob died childless. If so all the children were
born of jacob by nature and what portion of them were to be considered by law as children of Eli is
left to conjecture.
