You will never completely answer the "Zerubbabel Question." There are some elements that can be added if we look at all the genealogies together. We can also learn something about how kinship and tribal identity was determined in ancient Israel.
But we can't solve the issue with a "LITERAL" accounting showing a "Father-to-son" relationship in each named "generation." Literalism dies here. And this is just one example ... one that COADIE! brought up. |
Right. We all know that not every Father and Son are named in genologies. It is not uncommon for several people to be skipped. That doesn't make them figurative or symbolic, they are still literal, they are just not exhaustive.
