Usage: The term "genealogia" refers to a record or account of ancestry and lineage. In the New Testament, it is used to describe the tracing of family lines and the study of one's descent. Genealogies were important in Jewish culture for establishing identity, inheritance rights, and fulfilling prophecies related to the Messiah.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Jewish culture, genealogies were crucial for several reasons. They established tribal affiliation, which was important for land inheritance and religious duties. Genealogies also played a role in validating claims to the priesthood and kingship. In the context of the New Testament, genealogies were significant for demonstrating Jesus Christ's fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies concerning the lineage of the Messiah, particularly His descent from David.
