Tar’gum Tol’doth Mashiach Interpretation of the Genealogy of Mashiach
(The Line of Nathan ben David)
As Interpreted By S.L. John Bernal
Ya'akov or Jacob, from Matthew’s genealogy list is Mir’yam’s or Mary’s father. This can be ascertained from looking at the words “as was supposed” in (Luke 3:23) genealogy list. Presented here are the results of many laborous hours of work. In the complete resport, S.L. John Bernal goes into supportive details for each and every name and its literal translation.
Basic Function, Nuts and Bolts: This table is presenting the geneology lists given in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke side by side. The Literal Interpertation of the names from Matthew's list is found in the middle column. At person #36 there is a deviance in the lists, Matthew is Mary's record and Luke is Joseph's record. At the end, the entire list of only translated names is presented to tell the story hidden in the meaning of names. Alot of the technical work done by John Bernal is not presented here, but can be seen in his entire research project, available to download on the OUR Bible website. Have fun!

The Total Message:
“Mankind (is) appointed Mortal (or: Woeful) Dwelling (or: Lamentation); the Praised of God descends, instructing His death sends to the perishing rest.”
“The Lofty One destroys as a desolation, sending overflowing division (and) evil intertwining enraged (or: furious) troubles (or: tribulation).”
“Exalted Father [who is the Father of a multitude] laughs (scornfully); a Supplanter [or: a Protector] who reigns as God [or: who reigns as a Mighty One] is praised, breaching [or: breaking down] the dividing wall, raising up a liberal people [or: a willing people].”
“The One who strengthens, Who is clothed in majesty, (is) the Servant who is the Beloved.”
“Given (is) the Gift of Yah at the appointed time, fulfilling God raising up the One who sleeps.”
“Bringing praise, the one who hears (is) united with the Gift YHVH has exalted.”
“The God of help brings (the) 0pening (of the eyes); great judgment He decrees – the Eternities of My King; the Light asked of God scatters confusion.”
“YHVH has shown favour; the one who praises brings My report: The Gift of Yah blotting out the plagues of the one who devours.”
“Consolation (is) strengthened (or: confirmed or established) – the Gift of Yah brings a response of (or: whom Yah has answered) My King united with the Gift ascending, bringing Salvation.”
