Geneatheology

My first post was on Adam & Eve trees. 

For the 6-month anniversary of this blog 

I thought I'd feature another "Biblical" tree.

Comments after the jump.

Jesus (Yeshua) "the Nazarene," Yehoshua ha Mashaiach/Notzri ben Joseph

B. 1 Mar 7 BC, Bethelem, Nazareth, Judea, Israel

Note on birth: Officially 15 September 7 BC AD to comply with dynastic regulation. Emperor Constantine subsequently designated December 25 to co-inside with the Pagan Sun Festival.

So Jesus was born in 7 BC? Wait, what? Guess this person doesn't know that BC is an abbreviation for "Before Christ". Then there's the "note" which confuses things even more. He was really born in "7 BC AD". Huh??? And I'm no religious scholar but didn't Jesus only die once on Earth? And children? One born before he was crucified and two after he resurrected. I can only imagine the reaction of a priest/pastor/reverend when a parishioner/tree copier tells them Jesus Christ is their hundred and something-eth great-grandfather.

Of course this is not the only tree online that includes Jesus Christ. Here's some of the various details from different trees:

Like I said in my first post I have no problem with someone creating a tree using information from The Bible or any other book. The issues come from people connecting their own tree to that book. If you think it's possible to trace your family back to any Biblical figure ask yourself one question. What records, actual proofs of births, marriages & deaths of individual people, are available between the end of The Bible and the year 1200?
