something that stands out in the chart immediately is that if Matthew is missing names "because of their sin" as @Nehemiah6 said, then Matthew should only have 4 kings in his list, not 14. there were very few good kings in either Judah or Israel's history.
Yes I’ve seen and seems the sin wasn’t necessarily was what made or break them as being kings part of the genealogy

let's not teach people answers that do not agree with the facts
The facts are what we find written in the Bible, not what YOU THINK should be written ( in your human wisdom). It is God who decides what is written and what is not.

God inspired man written, if the Septuagint can be corrupted then so can other things.

God decided 1 Chronicles and 2 Kings would not give the same record that Matthew 1 does.
i think we ought to deal with that. what is a thread about Matthew 1 for, anyway?

Marys genealogy bypassed Jeconiahs curse while Joseph carried davids king line through Solomon then became cursed through Jeconiah .. Jesus may have legally inherited from josephs paternal line but He was begotten of God .. Born in a manger but born Lord of Lords and King of Kings
