Does the Bible tell one ‘Story’?

Did Jesus live from a ‘Story’? JESUS IS THE HENGE ON WHICH THE BIBLICAL STORY TURNS 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. 18 This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. 19 Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. 1 A record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ the son of David, the son of Abraham:”

Did Jesus live from a ‘Story’? THE PURPOSE OF MATTHEW’S GENEAOLOGY “Far from being an archive of Jesus’ ancestors, the genealogy reviews what has happened in the story of God’s people before Jesus’ birth and tells the reader how to evaluate Jesus... [The genealogy] reveals that his roots go deep into Israel’s sacred history, which God has been guiding, even in the blackest of moments, to its culmination. All biblical history has been leading up to the birth of the messiah.” - David E. Garland, Reading Matthew
