Luke 3:26

"the son of Mattathias, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Esli, the son of Naggai,"

Key Reflection

This genealogy highlights the lineage leading to John the Baptist, emphasizing his connection to a pious Jewish family. The names themselves do not carry specific spiritual meanings but collectively underscore the tradition and religious heritage passed down through generations.
