One of the primary ways we see God working to fulfill His promises in the Old Testament is in the ordinary, every day continuation of His covenant to produce a Son from the tribe of Israel, the legacy of David to sit on the throne forever as Lord and Savior. The endless genealogies contain within them the extraordinary everyday preservation of the seed of Israel. As miraculous as was the sea's parting or Jericho's walls falling, as is the preservation of the progeny. Certain mile markers were highlighted like Abraham, Jacob and David, but in between and after were links in the chain all leading up to Jesus, the son of Mary and Joseph, the promised seed of Eve, the Serpent Crusher!
