Ministry on This Verse

 There were women of great note in the lineage of the Messiah — persons whom the Jews naturally looked up to as holy and honorable. What Jewish heart would not naturally glow with strong feelings of respect in hearing of Sarah and Rebekah, and the other holy and well-known women….There are four women, and only four, who appear in the line, and upon every one of them there was a blot. It is not that all the sources of reproach or shame were of the same kind. But to a proud Jew, with all these women there was connected what was humbling — something that he would have kept in the dark. (Remarks on Matthew 1 by W. Kelly)
 God, feeling the sin of His own people to be the worst of all sin, yet having introduced in this very Messiah the only One who could save His people from their sins, does not hesitate to bring their sin into the presence of the grace that could and would put it all away. (Remarks on Matthew 1 by W. Kelly)
