Admin
Genealogical link between Hezron and Amminadab in Jesus's lineage
Admin, also known by the name form Arni, appears in Luke's genealogy as the son of Hezron and father of Amminadab. He is part of the messianic lineage from Judah through King David and onward to Jesus Christ. In the Old Testament genealogies in Ruth and 1 Chronicles, the name Ram is given in the same genealogical position, and the relationship between the names Admin, Arni, and Ram remains a subject of ongoing textual criticism. Some manuscripts distinguish between Arni and Admin as two separate generations, which further complicates the issue. Although much about this figure remains uncertain, his place in the genealogy illustrates God's faithful preservation of the promised lineage from the patriarchs to the Messiah.
