See also Genealogy of Jesus In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads And Zerubbabel Zorobabel begat Abiud and Abiud begat Eliakim and Eliakim begat Azor The World English Bible translates the passage as Zerubbabel became the father of Abiud.

This is a long period of time for just four people and many scholars feel an accurate list would be longer. Luke s genealogy has far more names covering this period.
