Jeuse was the King from the line of David by adoption..just as we are the children of God and the brothers and sisters of Christ by adoption...

Jewish law recognized adopted childern as eligible to inherit

On His mothers side his human inheritance is from the line of David through Nathan..On His stepfathers side He is the King by adoption through the line of Solomon

Sorry, Mom, but it doesn't work that way. You can be adopted into a family, but you do not inherit a genetic lineage. Kingship in Israel is patrilineal, and it is not passed to an adopted son.

The kingship line of David is not the same as inheriting your father's goats.

That may be, but this doesn't help Jesus's claims to the throne of David.
