SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:24
que fue de Matat, que fue de Leví, que fue de Melqui, que fue de Jana, que fue de José,
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 24. Which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi , etc.] These two, Grotius says, are omitted in the ancient exemplars; and he thinks they ought to be left out; and for which he mentions the authorities of Irenaeus, Africanus, Eusebius, Nazianzen, Jerom, and Augustin: but not only the Vulgate Latin, but all the Oriental versions, retain them: which was the son of Melchi : and who, he thinks, was the immediate father of Eli: which was the son of Janna : frequent mention is made, in the Jewish writings of aklm yany , “king Jannai”, who is said to be the same with king Jochanan, or John, the son of Simeon, the son of Mattithiah, that was called Hyrcanus; and his son Alexander, that reigned after him, was also called Jannai f198 ; but whether either of these is the same with this Janna, is not certain: but this may be observed, that they were both before the times of Herod, and the birth of Jesus, some years. And Jannai is called; in the chronicle of Jedidiah of Alexandria, or Philo the Jew f199 , Hyrcanus the second, who reigned sixteen years: which was the son of Joseph . This Joseph, according to the same chronicle, is called Joseph the second, and surnamed Arsis, and was greatly honoured by Ptolemy, and governed sixty years; and accordingly we shall meet with another Joseph anon.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 23-38 - Matthew's list of the forefathers of Jesus showed that Christ was the son of Abraham, in whom all the families of the earth are blessed, an heir to the throne of David; but Luke shows that Jesus was the Seed of the woman that should break the serpent's head, and traces the line u to Adam, beginning with Eli, or Heli, the father, not of Joseph, but of Mary. The seeming differences between the two evangelists in thes lists of names have been removed by learned men. But our salvation doe not depend upon our being able to solve these difficulties, nor is the Divine authority of the Gospels at all weakened by them. The list of names ends thus, "Who was the son of Adam, the son of God;" that is the offspring of God by creation. Christ was both the son of Adam an the Son of God, that he might be a proper Mediator between God and the sons of Adam, and might bring the sons of Adam to be, through him, the sons of God. All flesh, as descended from the first Adam, is as grass and withers as the flower of the field; but he who partakes of the Holy Spirit of life from the Second Adam, has that eternal happiness, whic by the gospel is preached unto us __________________________________________________________________
