I hear people say it from time to time in testimonies and from the pulpit, but when I
hear the word "shekinah", I think of the wicked king named Jechonias. He was cursed
to be childless. Shekinah, Jechonias!
In
Matthew 1, he is named in the lineage of (possibly Joseph's). Also in
Matthew 1,
you will find David's son, Solomon, mentioned. But in
Luke 3 (possibly Mary's line),
you will find they left Jechonias name out, and instead of Solomon listed as David's son,
here you will find another son of David named. NATHAN. Could this be the same Nathan
that told David, "Thou art the man". How humbling would that be to a minister to hear
his son say, "Dad, you have been committing adultery". If David had a son who was a king,
could he not also have had a son that was a prophet!
Remember, Joseph wasn't Jesus father.
Just some thoughts,
Blessings,
