Commentary

The phrase 'Βίβλος γενέσεως' (book of the genealogy) is used in Genesis 5:1 in the so called Greek Septuagint. The other genealogy appears in Luke 3:23-38. This genealogy is necessary to prove the linage and pedigree of Jesus Christ, and that being the "Son of David" and "Son of Abraham" He fulfills the requirements relating to the prophecies about the coming Messiah. The expression "book of the genealogy" simply means a "table of the genealogy" or "a list of the generations." The phrase 'Βίβλος γενέσεως' was most probably a title for the first part of the gospel of Matthew (1-17 and not a title to the book of Matthew, nor for the New Testament itself.

The book

The Greek, Βίβλος, is translated as 'The' book due to the normal use of anarthrous nouns in titles. This negates the need for italics here in the article "The". (Anarthrous nouns are generally translated into English with the indefinite article ("a, an"). There are some anarthrous nouns which are qualitative and are often translated without an article.)

of the genealogy

γενέσεως The genealogy is proof of the fulfillment of God's promise to the patriarchs concerning the linage of the Messiah.

of Jesus Christ

Ἰησοῦ The Hebrew Yeshua means "the LORD is salvation."

Χριστοῦ. Χριστοῦ Christ meaning - The Messiah, anointed one. The word anointed means put into a position, like a king or a priest. A similar word is appointed.

the Son of David

υἱοῦ Δαβίδ. The "Son of David" is a Messianic title.

the Son of Abraham

υἱοῦ Ἀβραάμ. The "Son of Abraham" reveals that Christ is the promised Seed of the Abrahamic covenant.
