Unnamed#4 Summary STEPBible TIPNR

This is one of the ancestors of Joseph, the husband of Mary, the mother of Jesus.

Unnamed#4 Article STEPBible TIPNR

This unnamed person is inserted to increase the number of generations in Jesus' genealogy as recorded in Matthew to become the same as the number of generations in Luke. Matthew is known to deliberately miss out some individuals (kings Ahaziah, Joash and Amaziah) so it is likely he also missed out others, in order to create three sets of 14 generations (Mat 1:17).
