The geneologies in Matthew & Luke do not conflict or contradict. The genealogical list in Matthew from David to Jacob-Heli ( spanning about 1000 years) contains 27 generations of 40 years each, so as to comply with the 40-year royal generational standard. Luke, on the other hand, gives 40 generations of a more comprehensible 25 years each. Hence, Luke places Jesus in the 20th generation from Zerubbabel, whereas Luke places him in the 11th generation from Zerubbabel. SUMMARY: Matthew-27 generations of 40 years from Solomon. Patriarchal--Zerubbabel's father's line. Luke-40 generations of 25 years from Nathan. Matriarchal--Zerubbabel's mother's line. Both Solomon & Nathan are sons of David. Their lines converge verge at Zerubbabel, then diverge. Zerubbabel had two sons, Abiud and Rhesa. Matthew goes from Abiud, Mary's line. Luke goes from Rhesa, Joseph's line. Mary & Joseph were also related. Joseph was Mary's great-aunt Gadat's son. Mary's mother was Hannah. Her father was Joakim (Yonakhir), the Elias Patriarch. Joseph's mother was Gadat. His father was Heli. He was the Jacob Patriarch. His community distinction was Jacob. His title was Jacob. He was called Jacob-Heli. Joachim's mother was Sabartia (Sabrath). Joachim's father was Matthat the Zadok. Heli's father was Matthan (descended from Mattathias (Tobias) the Temple governor.

But that makes even less sense though. Genealogy of Jesus is used to justify him being the future king of Israel and a messiah. Mother could not pass down kingship in jewish tradition. Even if she was desendant from david, Jesus could not be king through her. So Gospel making that claim in the first century would be nonsense.

The contradicting genealogies show that Jesus is a fictional figure.
