Matthew 1:1

Jesus Christ, the Son of … Abraham

The record of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

Abraham left the wealth and power of Ur to go to Palestine
  Jesus left the palaces of heaven to descend to Bethlehem
Abraham offered his son Isaac on the altar
  Jesus offered himself on the Cross
Abraham’s son did not die; God substituted a ram instead
  Jesus was the lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world
Abraham received his son back form the dead, as it were
  Jesus himself rose from the dead, in fact
Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness
  Jesus has become righteousness itself to all who believe in him.

God promised Abraham that he would become a great nation
  In Christ, we are a holy nation, a people for God’s possession
God promised Abraham that his name would be great
  Jesus Christ has been given the name that is above every name
God promised Abraham that he would be a blessing
  In Christ we are blessed with every spiritual blessing
God promised Abraham that his people would inherit the land of Canaan
  In Christ all believers are heirs to the entire world
God promised Abraham that in him all the families of the earth would be blessed
  In Christ all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, blessed by God, offer up constant blessing and praise to God and to the Lamb.
