Who is the Genealogy of Jesus Christ?

1) What is the generation of mother Mary to now and who is the person?There are no known descendants of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Some sects (Roman Catholics and others) believe that Mary had no children other than Jesus. Others believe that she did. The bible does *not* firmly support either belief. In other words, we don't know for certain if Mary had other children, and even if the relatives of Jesus mentioned in the bible are Mary's children, we do not know of their descendants.2) What is the generation of Elizabeth to now and who is the person?Elizabeth had a son "in her old age". She was, presumably, past child-bearing age when she miraculously conceived John the Baptist. John is not recorded as having a wife or children, and was executed at about the age of 30. It is almost certain that Elizabeth had no other children.3) The bible say about mother Mary have another sonThe bible does *not* make this claim.4) What is after the last book of the Bible "Revelations" written?This is a matter of sectarian belief. Most sects believe that the bible is "closed" and that no new inspired scriptures have been written since the writing of Revelation. Others accept additional documents as inspired. Mormons consider the "Book of Mormon" to be the "last testament" of Jesus. Roman Catholics consider their "canon law" and, to a large extent, the decisions of their "ecumenical councils" to be the result of Godly inspiration. There are many other examples, but nearly all Christian sects do not consider any historical account (such as the gospels or Acts) written after Revelation to be "inspired". Many consider certain prophetic writings to have been inspired, but since agreement is by no means common among Christians, such writings have never been included in bibles.6) Other "saints" writings can be found online. The acceptance of such as authentically "inspired" is left up to the individual by most Christian sects.Jim, http://www.jimpettis.com/bibles/
