Image Asa Jehoshaphat Joram.jpg right 300px thumb Michelangelo s Asa Jehoshaphat Joram.jpg . The man on the left is generally considered to be Jehoshaphat Matthew 1 8 is the eighth verse of the first chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament . The verse is part of the section where the genealogy of Saint Joseph Joseph , the legal father of Jesus , is listed. In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads And Asa begat Josaphat and Josaphat begat Joram and Joram begat Ozias The World English Bible translates the passage as Asa became the father of Jehoshaphat. Jehoshaphat became the father of Joram. Joram became the father of Uzziah. For a collection of other versions see http bibref.hebtools.com ?book 20Matthew&verse 1 8&src BibRef Matthew 1 8 This first part this verse coincides with the list of the Kings of Judah that is present in a number of other parts of the Bible . According to W.F. Albright Asa of Judah ruled from 913 BC to 873 BC . His son Jehoshaphat ruled from 873 BC to 849 BC . His son Jehoram of Judah Jehoram ruled from Jehoshaphat s death until 842 BC . However the other lists have Jehoram s son being Ahaziah of Judah Ahaziah while Uzziah is a monarch who comes several generations later. This means that Matthew s genealogy skips Ahaziah, Athaliah , Jehoash of Judah Jehoash , and Amaziah of Judah Amaziah . Those who believe in the inerrancy of the Bible contend that the genealogy was never meant to be complete and the author of Matthew deliberately dropped those who were not needed from the list. Simply dropping unnecessary figures from genealogies was a common practice, and this is also done in several points in the Old Testament. One theory is that they were dropped because of their wickedness, but the even more unpleasant Manasseh of Judah Manasseh is left in the list. All four were also murdered, but so was Amon of Judah Amon , who also remains in place. Their reigns were also relatively short, but again there are other monarchs with shorter ... more details
