    Greetings brother Dulle, it is so good to get back your site. I have been trying to contact you and have not been able to. I pray that your family is well and the Baby is healthey and all.
    I LOVE this video and I have to have a copy for my library and web site.
    in my clash with atheist who love to “point out” the contradictions in the Bible but rarely bother to research before they attack I found this kind of material very helpful in deflating their ego, (at least for a minute or two).
    Any way please tell me how I can get a copy and what program was used to create it. Iam seeing more and more of this kind of video teaching and I think it is great in the right hands. I would like to learn it so I can create my own.
    Thanks so much for what you do. Please contact me when you can.

    Danzil,

    I’m doing fine, and the new baby is great. He’s 4 months old now.

    The best way to contact me is via email. I’m cell-phoneless!

    As for the video, I have no idea. It was just something on YouTube. Perhaps if you open the video up in YouTube you can contact the person who created it and see if there is anyway for them to send it to you. Or you could also download the video using a YouTube video downloader tool.

    The Greek word translated as “husband” in most Bible translations does not necessarily mean husband, it can but it also means any male protector (including fathers). Matthew could be giving Mary’s genealogy and Luke is giving Joseph’s. This explanation is quite possible too. The Peshitta also uses a word that can be translated as husband or father.

    Also, if you have the word translated “husband” translated instead as “father”, then you will have 14 generations instead of 13.
