David is most definitely his father (ancestor). "Son of David, have mercy on us..." as is in the text repeatedly.
He was conceived through the Holy Spirit.
He was indeed. Many children in this day and age are conceived through doctors and lab technicians, but that doesn't make them the babies' fathers (well, there are some creepy stories). The first IVF baby turned 40 this year.
Joseph, we all know, was Jesus’ foster-father.
You'll have you leave me out of that one. I know he was Jesus' father. :)
I write for anybody looking to escape the established 'wisdom' that never made a lick of sense.
An ancestor, but not a Father.
