Biblical Genealogies

Welcome to the Biblical Genealogies visual explorer. Understanding the family trees and lineages presented in the Bible is crucial for grasping the overarching narrative of redemptive history. From the very beginning in Genesis, genealogies are used to demonstrate God's faithfulness across generations, mapping out the descendants of Adam to Noah, and tracking the survival of humanity through the great flood.

One of the most complex and fascinating studies in biblical history is the division of the 12 Tribes of Israel. Following the lineage of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Israel), our interactive charts allow you to visually trace how the promises made to the Patriarchs unfolded into a great nation. We also provide clear maps detailing the royal successions of the Kings of Israel and Judah, helping students easily distinguish between the divided kingdoms of the North and South.

Perhaps the most significant family tree in scripture is the lineage of Jesus Christ. The New Testament opens with a detailed genealogy in the Gospel of Matthew, establishing Jesus' rightful claim to the throne of David through his earthly father. Meanwhile, the Gospel of Luke traces his ancestry all the way back to Adam, highlighting his connection to all of humanity. Our visual tools help reconcile these two accounts, showing the prophetic precision of Christ's arrival.
