Dear Cousin Judy:
The question of whether one could trace ancestorial link to biblical figures; one in particular: I offer the following. When, long ago, I was vetted for the priesthood, I was asked to respond to the following question: "What is your answer to the statement "He had issue?" My response which eventually led me to wearing a Bishop's Mitre, was, So What. Divinity does not go with DNA. I could go much further; however, I would need to have a collection plate handy. A good sermon should have a good collection.
