There is nothing in Holy Scripture which allows us to "quote" the name of Joseph. The word "Ben" was used at the time to designate thelineage of the child, there for at Mt 1:16 "Jacob was the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary" One could conjecture that "ben Jacob" or any derivative could be used. However the purpose of the genealogy of Matthew is to trace the lineage of Jesus, Mt:1:1 "Son of David"... In numerology, David (in Hebrew without the vowels DVD adds up to the number 14 "D"[4] "V" [6]. The genealogy is broken up to three groups of 14 generations each... to emphasize that Jesus is the "Divine" [3 - being the 'sacred' number] Son of David [14].
