there are two genealogies in the New Testament for Jesus. In Matthew, it is claimed that Joseph was a descendent of King Jeconiah, who in the Hebrew Bible was cursed to never have a descendent “sitting on the throne of David and ruling any more in Judah”

The Jeconiah argument carries no weight with a Christian who believes the New Testament. Matthew 28:19 states that Jesus now has all authority, is reigning now. Mark 16:19 states that the seat of this government is on the right hand of God, not in Judah.

I was off one verse. It is Matthew 28:18 that says all authority is given me in heaven and earth.
