My concern with your model is that it may change or render null some of the very important messianic prophecies of the last minor prophets irregardless of any eschatological implications. It appears that your model totally discounts Mary's lineage.I think it's important that we don't discount Mary's lineage. Here is why I think Mary's lineage is important: Exactly!
Mary is in the line of Nathan, who is in the Davidic line (being a brother of Solomon 2Sam.5:14)
Her marriage to Joseph, gave Christ the legal right to rule, and her blood line, fulfilled the Davidic convenant that one a heir from David's blood would rule on the throne (2Sam.7:14)

Interestingly, in today's strict judaistic sects a real Jew is one whose MOTHER was a Jew. They don't especially like conversions, and a Jewish mother is absolute genetic proof that the children are at least partially Jewish.
