The Bible contains some of the earliest written genealogical records, particularly in the Old Testament. For instance, Genesis 5 traces the lineage from Adam to Noah, listing ages and descendants with meticulous detail, while Matthew 1 outlines Jesus' ancestry through Joseph. These genealogies served theological purposes, linking individuals to divine promises or covenants, and cultural purposes, reinforcing tribal identities in ancient Israel. For modern genealogists, they offer a window into how ancient societies prioritized family lineage.
