God (Yahweh) root

Genesis 1:1Genesis 1:27Genesis 2:7Genesis 2:22
created
Adamadamcreated — with Eve
Formed from the dust of the ground. Lived nine hundred thirty years. Genesis 5:4 attests further sons and daughters who are never named.

“Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Genesis 2:7

Caincain
Firstborn; a tiller of the ground. His wife is named only as 'his wife' (Genesis 4:17) and so has no record here. Genesis 4:1 states the parentage as “The man knew Eve his wife” — the WEB renders Adam as the man here, so the father is stated without the name being spelled.

“The man knew Eve his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, “I have gotten a man with Yahweh’s help.”” Genesis 4:1

Abeladam
A keeper of sheep. Killed by Cain; the line ends with him and the record says nothing further. The father is carried from Genesis 4:1, where the man knew Eve his wife; 4:2 continues with Again she gave birth.

Matthatlukan
The upper of two men named Matthat son of Levi in Luke’s list; the other is at Luke 3:24. The two are told apart only by position, so the ids are numbered rather than named for their fathers.

Josephnativitytwo fathers named: Jacob Matthew 1:16 · Heli Luke 3:23 — with Maryno parent named
The husband of Mary. Matthew 1:16 names his father Jacob, son of Matthan, in the line through Solomon; Luke 3:23 names his father Heli, in the line through Nathan. Both edges are recorded, each anchored to the book that states it. Neither is preferred: the two lists say different things, and the data says both. Distinct from Joseph son of Jacob, and from the three men named Joseph in Luke’s list.
Matthew 1:16Luke 3:23
“Jacob became the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.” Matthew 1:16
“Jesus himself, when he began to teach, was about thirty years old, being the son (as was supposed) of Joseph, the son of Heli,” Luke 3:23
Jesus (Christ)nativitylegal
Matthew 1:16 says Joseph was the husband of Mary, “from whom was born Jesus” — the formula breaks the “became the father of” chain it has repeated forty times. Luke 3:23 says “being the son (as was supposed) of Joseph”. Both decline to make the edge biological, so it is recorded as legal: father of record, without a claim about begetting. The edge to Mary is biological and is the one both books assert.
Matthew 1:1Matthew 1:16Luke 3:23
“The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.” Matthew 1:1
“Jacob became the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.” Matthew 1:16

Azariah (Uzziah)davidic
Called Azariah in the genealogy and Uzziah in 2 Chronicles 26:1, where he is made king in the place of his father Amaziah. Matthew 1:8 has Joram becoming the father of Uzziah, passing over Ahaziah, Joash and Amaziah — three generations Chronicles records and this dataset keeps. Matthew's list is shortened, not contradicted.

“So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers, and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his place.” 2 Kings 24:6
Jeconiah (Jehoiachin, Jechoniah)davidic
Called Jeconiah the captive in the genealogy, Jehoiachin in 2 Kings 24:6, and Jechoniah in Matthew 1:12. The exile falls in his lifetime. Matthew 1:11 makes him a son of Josiah, passing over Jehoiakim; 1 Chronicles 3:16 names Jehoiakim as his father, and that is the edge recorded here.
1 Chronicles 3:161 Chronicles 3:172 Kings 24:6Matthew 1:12
“The sons of Jehoiakim: Jeconiah his son, and Zedekiah his son.” 1 Chronicles 3:16

“After the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel became the father of Zerubbabel.” Matthew 1:12
Shealtieldavidic
Named first among the sons of Jeconiah the captive. Luke 3:27 names a different Shealtiel, son of Neri, in the line through Nathan; the two are recorded separately. Ezra 3:2, Haggai 1:1 and Matthew 1:12 all call Zerubbabel his son; 1 Chronicles 3:19 calls Zerubbabel the son of Pedaiah.
1 Chronicles 3:17Ezra 3:2Haggai 1:1Matthew 1:12
“The sons of Jeconiah, the captive: Shealtiel his son,” 1 Chronicles 3:17
“Then Jeshua the son of Jozadak stood up with his brothers the priests and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel and his relatives, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer burnt offerings on it, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God.” Ezra 3:2
“In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, Yahweh’s word came by Haggai the prophet, to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, saying,” Haggai 1:1
“After the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel became the father of Zerubbabel.” Matthew 1:12
Zerubbabeldavidiclegal
Luke 3:27 names a different Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel son of Neri, whose son is Rhesa; the two are recorded separately. Called the son of Shealtiel in Ezra 3:2, Haggai 1:1 and Matthew 1:12; 1 Chronicles 3:19 names him among the sons of Pedaiah, Shealtiel's brother. The edge recorded here is legal — father of record — which both readings can hold at once if Pedaiah begot him to his brother's name. Neither is asserted over the other.
1 Chronicles 3:19Ezra 3:2Haggai 1:1Matthew 1:12
“The sons of Pedaiah: Zerubbabel and Shimei. The sons of Zerubbabel: Meshullam and Hananiah; and Shelomith was their sister;” 1 Chronicles 3:19

Named as the sister of Meshullam and Hananiah, and so a daughter of Zerubbabel. One of the few women the post-exilic list names.

Abiuddavidic
Matthew 1:13 makes him the son of Zerubbabel. He is not among the sons Chronicles lists at 1 Chronicles 3:19-20, and Luke’s line runs through Rhesa instead; neither list is complete.
Matthew 1:13
“Zerubbabel became the father of Abiud. Abiud became the father of Eliakim. Eliakim became the father of Azor.” Matthew 1:13
Eliakimdavidic
Matthew’s Eliakim. Luke 3:30 names a different Eliakim in the line through Nathan.

Distinct from Eleazar son of Aaron (Exodus 6:23).
Matthew 1:15
“Eliud became the father of Eleazar. Eleazar became the father of Matthan. Matthan became the father of Jacob.” Matthew 1:15
Matthandavidic
Matthew 1:15
“Eliud became the father of Eleazar. Eleazar became the father of Matthan. Matthan became the father of Jacob.” Matthew 1:15
Jacobdavidic
Matthew 1:16 makes him the father of Joseph the husband of Mary; Luke 3:23 makes that Joseph the son of Heli. Distinct from Jacob the patriarch. Which father Joseph is recorded under is an open scope question, so no edge from him to Joseph is written here.
Matthew 1:15
“Eliud became the father of Eleazar. Eleazar became the father of Matthan. Matthan became the father of Jacob.” Matthew 1:15
Josephnativityalso under Jacob and Heli — descent drawn oncetwo fathers named: Jacob Matthew 1:16 · Heli Luke 3:23 — with Maryno parent named
The husband of Mary. Matthew 1:16 names his father Jacob, son of Matthan, in the line through Solomon; Luke 3:23 names his father Heli, in the line through Nathan. Both edges are recorded, each anchored to the book that states it. Neither is preferred: the two lists say different things, and the data says both. Distinct from Joseph son of Jacob, and from the three men named Joseph in Luke’s list.

“The sons of Pedaiah: Zerubbabel and Shimei. The sons of Zerubbabel: Meshullam and Hananiah; and Shelomith was their sister;” 1 Chronicles 3:19
Shimeidavidic
Named with Zerubbabel as a son of Pedaiah. Unlike Zerubbabel no other book reassigns him, so his father stands as Chronicles gives it.

Zedekiahdavidic
Listed at 3:16 as Jehoiakim's son, alongside Jeconiah. A Zedekiah is also listed at 3:15 as Josiah's son; the text names both and this dataset does not merge them.
1 Chronicles 3:16
“The sons of Jehoiakim: Jeconiah his son, and Zedekiah his son.” 1 Chronicles 3:16
Zedekiahdavidic
The third son of Josiah at 3:15. 2 Kings 24:17 records that Mattaniah, Jehoiachin's father's brother, was made king and renamed Zedekiah — which fits a son of Josiah. A second Zedekiah is listed at 3:16 as Jehoiakim's son; both are kept.
1 Chronicles 3:152 Kings 24:17
“The sons of Josiah: the firstborn Johanan, the second Jehoiakim, the third Zedekiah, and the fourth Shallum.” 1 Chronicles 3:15
“The king of Babylon made Mattaniah, Jehoiachin’s father’s brother, king in his place, and changed his name to Zedekiah.” 2 Kings 24:17

The fourth son. Jeremiah 22:11 speaks of Shallum son of Josiah, who reigned in place of his father.
1 Chronicles 3:15Jeremiah 22:11
“The sons of Josiah: the firstborn Johanan, the second Jehoiakim, the third Zedekiah, and the fourth Shallum.” 1 Chronicles 3:15

Cainanlukan
Luke 3:36 places him between Arphaxad and Shelah. Genesis 10:24 and 11:12 have Shelah directly under Arpachshad and say nothing of him.

Not joined to the tree
87 of the 497 records cannot be reached from Adam by any parent the text supplies. That is not an omission — it is what those verses say. Genesis 36:40-43 lists eleven chiefs of Edom by family, place and name, with no “sons of” and no “bore” anywhere in the passage; several of the kings of Edom reign “in his place” after the last one dies, with no father named; 1 Chronicles 3:21 gives four men in a series of headings and a parent to none of them. Drawing an edge in any of those places would mean supplying a word the text withholds, so the names are kept and the gap is left standing.
Elimelechjudahno parent named — with Naomino parent named
A man of Bethlehem Judah who went to live in Moab. No parents are named for him, so none are recorded.
Ruth 1:2Ruth 1:3

Named as Bathshua's father in the genealogy. 2 Samuel 11:3 names Bathsheba's father as Eliam; the two are not merged here.

“and these were born to him in Jerusalem: Shimea, Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon, four, by Bathshua the daughter of Ammiel;” 1 Chronicles 3:5
Bathshua (Bathsheba)davidic — with David and Uriahno parent named
Named Bathshua daughter of Ammiel in the genealogy (1 Chronicles 3:5) and Bathsheba daughter of Eliam in 2 Samuel 11:3. Both renderings are recorded; whether the two fathers are one man is not something this record settles.
1 Chronicles 3:52 Samuel 11:32 Samuel 12:24
“and these were born to him in Jerusalem: Shimea, Shobab, Nathan, and Solomon, four, by Bathshua the daughter of Ammiel;” 1 Chronicles 3:5
“David sent and inquired after the woman. One said, “Isn’t this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, Uriah the Hittite’s wife?”” 2 Samuel 11:3
“David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her, and lay with her. She bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. Yahweh loved him;” 2 Samuel 12:24
Shuajudahno parent named
A Canaanite of Adullam. Genesis 38:2 names him solely as the father of the woman Judah married, and does not name her — so his daughter, Judah's wife and the mother of Er, Onan and Shelah, has no record here. The gap is hers, not his.
Genesis 38:2
“There, Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite man named Shua. He took her, and went in to her.” Genesis 38:2
Rephaiahdavidicno parent named
1 Chronicles 3:21 names him in a series of parallel headings — the sons of Rephaiah, the sons of Arnan, the sons of Obadiah, the sons of Shecaniah — following the sons of Hananiah. The verse states no father for him. Reading the series as a vertical descent requires emending the sons of to his son, so this dataset leaves the gap the grammar leaves. His sons are referred to and never named, so no record hangs beneath him.

“The sons of Hananiah: Pelatiah and Jeshaiah; the sons of Rephaiah, the sons of Arnan, the sons of Obadiah, the sons of Shecaniah.” 1 Chronicles 3:21

1 Chronicles 3:21 names him in a series of parallel headings — the sons of Rephaiah, the sons of Arnan, the sons of Obadiah, the sons of Shecaniah — following the sons of Hananiah. The verse states no father for him. Reading the series as a vertical descent requires emending the sons of to his son, so this dataset leaves the gap the grammar leaves. 1 Chronicles 3:22 then names Shemaiah as his son, and the list turns vertical again from there.

Seirhoriteno parent named
Seir the Horite, whose sons are the inhabitants of the land. The text gives him no father, and does not descend him from Esau — Esau settled in his hill country. This branch is Horite, not Edomite by descent.

Anahhorite
Genesis 36:20 lists him among the sons of Seir, and 36:24 among the children of Zibeon. Both statements are transcribed; the parent edge follows 36:24, which is the narrower claim, and 36:20 is cited beside it.

Hemdanhorite
Genesis 36:26 gives the children of Dishon without saying which Dishon. The edge follows the Dishon of the chiefs list at 36:21 and 36:30, and the ambiguity is recorded here rather than resolved silently.
