Jesus was known to have more than one father, besides his heavenly one (all from the same root though).

David, and Joseph. A whole lot of layers are missed with Father being capitalized. At age 12, for example, Jesus (when discovered in the Temple), said he was about his father's business.

David: all Temple all the time. It was in his heart and soul and mind and spirit to build the Temple. David passed all the blueprints and event planning and organizational details and plans down to Solomon. That 12 YO was a total buff, just like his father David. Where else would be have been, asking so many questions and having so much knowledge himself.

When people cried out for healing, they recognized David in David's son, in his attribute of mercy. So many times they cried out, "Son of *David*, have mercy on us." Naturally.

Then there was Joseph, a *just* man (a Tzaddik), who had dreams, took his family down to Egypt and *brought them back up*. On and on and on.

Joseph ha-Tzaddik and David ha-Melek. It'll take the Jews to restore and rectify the proper meaning of the NT narrative. As it stands now, the Messiah's visage is so marred that he doesn't even look like a man.

To: Ezekiel

David was not Christ’s father. He was conceived through the Holy Spirit.

Joseph, we all know, was Jesus’ foster-father.
