The Traditional Line
|
From Charlemagne to Abraham. Some have 61 generations. The Gospel of Matthew states there are 42 generations between Jesus of Nazareth and Abraham, and Marcomir III (10BC-50AD), thirty generations from Charlemagne, would have roughly been Jesus' contemporary. Thus there would theoretically be about 72 generations between Charlemagne and Abraham. The Springer genealogy inserts 24 Cimmerian kings in between the Sicambri kings and the Trojans for a count of about 85 generations. Some dates and details below come from Springer, where it seems appropriate. The dates don't line up between Zerah and the Trojans, but in the bible the Hebrew word for "became the father of" does not necessarily mean only that, but often means "became an ancestor of"...the equivalent of our English word "descendant". It's quite possible that the Mergovian royalty discovered that the Trojans ultimately came from the line of Judah, despite missing information about all the intermediate generations. 39.
