| Summary: | In his Letter to Aristides, Julius Africanus (c. 170 - c. 250) relates a tradition about the Desposynoi, members of Jesus' family in Galilee, and their use of a family genealogy in the context of missionary work. Since this tradition was mistakenly assimilated with later material, which Africanus used in order to reconcile Matthew's and Lukes' genealogies of Jesus, its significance has not always been fully appreciated. In this essay, both these tradition and information that Africanus had about the Desposynoi are placed under close scrutiny. This analysis leads to the conclusion that the tradition preserved in the Letter to Aristides is a precious witness to this group's activity in the second half of the first century, probably before 70. The study also explores the possibility of a connection between the Desposynoi's genealogy and that of the canonical Gospels. The evidence suggests that the former could be the source of the genealogy of Luke 3:23-38. |
