Eve and all of their descendants, he would have to become one of us.
Why? What do loins have to do with spsiritual
redemption and what it takes to redeem
mankind? His salvation unlike the covering
of bulls and goats is eternal because his
blood is the blood of the eternal Spirit. (Hebrews 9:14)

Such does not bother the thesis of the humanity of Jesus one bit.
Only if you argue
that Jesus did not inherit genetic material from Mary would it be a
problem. The Bible
gives every indication that Jesus was related to Mary, related to David,
related to
Abraham, and related to Adam.
Yes I understand the genealogies are important and
relevant or they wouldn't be there...
but I see their value as more spiritual than biolgical
ie: Ishmael was a biolgical son
but Isaac the child of Promise. I understand
blessings and curses to come down
through families generationally in the spiritual sense
even though there is a
biolgical dimension also.
