Genealogy (1:1) means “origin” or “beginning.” [bsg_ref id="70" page="1411"]
Begot (1:2) usually means to become the descendant’s father, but also refers simply to being the descendant’s ancestor. Thus Josiah was the grandfather (ancestor), not the father of Jeconiah (see v. 11; 1 Chr 3:15, 16). Biblical genealogies often list only prominent ancestors. [bsg_ref id="70" page="1411"]
Christ (1:16): The Anointed One, the long-expected “King of the Jews” (2:2, …). Christ is a title, not a name. [bsg_ref id="70" page="1411"]
The pledge to be married was legally binding. Only a divorce writ could break it, and infidelity at that stage was considered adultery (cf. Deut 22:23-24; Moore, Judaism, 2:121-22). The marriage itself took place when the groom (already called “husband,” 1:19) ceremoniously took the bride home. [bsg_ref id="79" page="74"]
In Jewish culture, the contract of marriage was made about a year before the consummation of the marriage.
