I believe that sacrificing children to Molech is a far stronger disqualifier. We all sin but we do not all sacrifice children to strange gods.
I have to say Mark, I have never think of that way.... sad sad sad

No Luke 3:23 has nothing to do with adoption or inheritance, the age of 30 (even 25 and 20 for probationary service) is when a Israylite is fully ready to be a priest;


Luke 3:23, "And when יהושע Himself began, He was about thirty years of age, being, as reckoned by law, son of Yosĕph, of Ěli,"



Numbers 4:23, "“Register them, from thirty years old and above, even to fifty years old, all who enter to perform the service, to do the service in the Tent of Appointment."


Numbers 4:30, "“Register them, from thirty years old and above, even to fifty years old, all who enter the service to do the work of the Tent of Appointment."


Numbers 4:35, "from thirty years old and above, even to fifty years old, all who entered the service for work in the Tent of Appointment."
As reckoned by LAW....Luke 3:23..."And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed ) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,"

The ((as was supposed ) is in the Bible and gives you the hint to look else where for the answer.

So you believe my assessment above is not correct? It seems to be very clear IMO...

It is correct but not for Jesus because he never served as priest in the tent of appointment, though He indeed was teaching at twelve even more so ten years later at 22.

The human mind doesn't fully developed until between the ages of 25 and 30 sometimes a tad early or later, thus reason the baptism wasn't until the vessel's physical brain was properly developed for the Spirit of God to have resident.
