    Ah! But Joseph was an heir to David! He wasn’t just some schmuck! He had an incredibly necessary role of explaining how Jesus could be David’s heir.

    Too bad he wasn’t Jesus’s daddy.

      I can see the family resemblance with David, another historical figure with limited archeological evidence for their existence. Doesn’t mean they didn’t exist, just that the past is poorly preserved.
