Contrary to the original Jewish teaching regarding Yeshua's patrilineal line, most Christians today claim that "Jesus" was the literal, biological son of God rather than the metaphorical spiritual faithfully obedient son of God. Moreover, they claim that "Jesus" was Joseph's adopted son rather than the literal patrilineal son of Joseph, who was a biological descendant of David. However, since HaShem promised King David that He would raise up David's seed after him who will issue from his male loins, it is clear that the later-virgin born "Jesus" could not possibly be the one foretold. [cf. 2 Shmuel 7.11-17; 1 Kings 8.19; Ps. 89.3-4] An alleged "Messiah" who does not descend from the patrilineal line of David, "according to the flesh" (Romans 1.3-4) would never be considered to be the real Messiah.
