2. According to Paul in 1 Corinthians 15 states when Christ comes back He will hand over the kingdom to God the Father and give up all rule and authority to God. Therefore, Christ can not rule when He comes back, for 1st Corinthians 15 plainly rejects that notion.

also in 1 Corinthians 15:

For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.
The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
(1 Corinthians 15:25-26)​

the last enemy is death. death is cast into the lake of fire after the 1,000 years that Satan is bound, not before (Revelation 20:1-14)

Jechonias starts the 14 lay generations. Jehoiakim and Jechoniah are blotted out from the regal generations.

Mary was cousin to Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist. Elizabeth was of the family of the sons of Aaron, her husband a Levite priest (see Luke 1, especially Luke 1:36 showing that Mary and Elisabeth were cousins).

Thus Mary's genealogy was of both the house of David and of the priest line also.

The word translated cousin simply means kinsman. It could simply mean that Elizabeth was a fellow Judean, or Bethlehamite.

If you believe scripture, chew on this, Christ is a descendant of Coniah.

Jeremiah 22
28 “Is this man Coniah a despised, broken idol—
A vessel in which is no pleasure?
Why are they cast out, he and his descendants,
And cast into a land which they do not know?
29 O earth, earth, earth,
Hear the word of the Lord!
30 Thus says the Lord:
‘Write this man down as childless,
A man who shall not prosper in his days;
For none of his descendants shall prosper,
Sitting on the throne of David,
And ruling anymore in Judah.

and (the genealogy of Christ)

Matthew 1
12 And after they were brought to Babylon, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, and Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel.

Zerubbabel was adopted by Shealtiel. Zerubbabel was the blood son of Pedaiah. So at Zerubbabel we have a descendant of David from the bloodline of Nathen. And Shealtiel was descended from the blood line of Solomon.

1 Chron 3:19~~New American Standard Bible
The sons of Pedaiah were Zerubbabel and Shimei. And the sons of Zerubbabel were Meshullam and Hananiah, and Shelomith was their sister;

Another point that nobody considers is this, we assume the egg of Mary was actually Mary's. Mary could have just been the incubator of an implanted fetus by God without any physical gene of Mary. After all, God made Adam the same way.

The purpose of the genealogies so that there would be no question who the Messiah actually is, not demonstrate His humanity. This is my only answer to Joseph's genealogy recorded in Matthew, otherwise in my limited understanding, the mention of Joseph's side would be in vain. If I'm wrong, I'm open to correction, as should any truth seeking Christian should be. So does the bible specifically state Jesus' humanity comes directly from Mary's gene pool?

New American Standard Bible
And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed andher seed; He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel."

Jesus Christ is 100% true humanity and undiminished deity in one PERSON forever. Jesus Christ being true humanity, is paramount to the redemption of humanity.

Humanity needed a human redeemer. And Christ is God in the FLESH. He came from Marys seed. The male passes on the Old sin nature, hence the virgin birth.
