Ms America has a spectacular aura about
Are there some generations missing with Jesus' "genealogy"?

Matthew 1:17
"Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Christ."

I counted:
Abraham to David = 14 generations
David to exile = 13 generations
exile to Christ = 12 generations
