Was this quote from Mark?
Mat 2:23, “And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.”
and what "scholars" that was a internet message board of people giving their view the same as here, and link to wikipedia articles.
Also if there are scholars that say this, what do they base it on and how do the deem the words of the historians who lived at that time to be false?
And how do you get around there only being 13 generations in the Greek version and the full 14 in the Hebrew version?
Mat 1 ESV Translated from the Greek Version
12 And after the deportation to Babylon:
Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, 1
and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 2
13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, 3
and Abiud the father of Eliakim, 4
and Eliakim the father of Azor, 5
14 and Azor the father of Zadok, 6
and Zadok the father of Achim, 7
and Achim the father of Eliud, 8
15 and Eliud the father of Eleazar, 9
and Eleazar the father of Matthan, 10
and Matthan the father of Jacob, 11
16 and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, 12
(a husband and wife are not 2 generations, if they are counted as 2 it goes against every meaning of a generation)
of whom Jesus was born, who is called Christ. 13
17 So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations.
Translated from the Hebrew Version;
1:12, "And after the exile to Baḇel,
Yeḵonyah brought forth She’alti’ĕl, 1
and She’alti’ĕl brought forth Zerubbaḇel. 2
1:13, "And Zerubbaḇel brought forth Aḇihuḏ, 3
and Aḇihuḏ brought forth Elyaqim, 4
and Elyaqim brought forth Azor. 5
1:14, "And Azor brought forth Tsaḏoq, 6
and Tsaḏoq brought forth Aqim, 7
and Aqim brought forth Elihuḏ.8
1:15, "And Elihuḏ brought forth El‛azar, 9
and El‛azar brought forth Mattan, 10
and Mattan brought forth Ya‛aqoḇ. 11
1:16, "And Ya‛aqoḇ brought forth Yosĕph 12 (a father and a daughter are 2 different generations)
the father of Miryam, 13
of whom was born יהושע who is called Messiah. 14
1:17, "So all the generations from Aḇraham to Dawiḏ were fourteen generations, and from Dawiḏ until the exile to Baḇel were fourteen generations, and from the exile to Baḇel until the Messiah were fourteen generations."
