Every now and then someone goes and constructs a really unique family tree, and this is what’s happened over at soulliberty.com.
Robert Rouse, from the site, has published a family tree for God, showing a bloodline from Adam and Eve through to Noah, King David, and right through to Jesus.
Whether you’re religious or not, this tree – based on the biblical record – is an impressive achievement. The tree shows only father-son and father-daughter relationships (except in the case of Mary), and ends up taking on a very interesting shape indeed.
It’s definitely worth checking out. You can view the whole thing here.
