Hebraic / aramaic roots of Matthew
Our modern translations come from the Greek version of Matthew.
Matthew was not written in Greek.
According to several first and second century sources, Matthew was well-known to have been written in the Hebrew language. From Hebrew, it was translated into the more common Aramaic language, and from Aramaic it was eventually translated into Greek. That is why many Aramaic words still remain in the Greek text and are even transmitted over into the English translations of Matthew.
The word “husband” in verse 16 is the Greek word “aner” which broadly means, “a man of full age,” and can be translated as “man,” “father,” “husband,” or any adult male. However, the Aramaic word that was translated “aner,” is givra, which literally means “mighty man” and is commonly used to refer to the oldest man in the family clan, most appropriately translated “father.” Thus, Miriam’s father (givra) was the son of Yosef, who was the son of Ya’acov.
so with the proper translation Josef FATHER of Miriam (Mary)
Vs 17 Babylonian Exile to the Messiah 14 generations is complete
