“David08271977: In order to be from the Davidic line, a Jew must have Jewish paternity directly back to Dovid HaMelech. That would exclude any Jews with non-Jewish grandfathers.”
A son or a great grandson or “offspring” of King David cannot defined through modern genealogy. Documents and letters, which is the only real proof of lineage can only be traced back several hundred years. Everything else is obscured by time. For this reason, just carrying a name will not be suffice with oral tradition because adoption other ancestral issues. That is why I believe certain miracles will be proof enough that someone is the son of David.
Since the early Roman occupation of Northern Israel, countless Jewish women were taken and forced into marriage with Roman soldiers. It is impossible to quantify how many descendants of David have no recollection or record of the lineage that they hold. Human record-keeping and genealogist will not be able to qualify who can or cannot be a descendant of David. Certain miracles will prove ancestral relation to David without the need of human logic or research. Certain things must be done to make way for the Moshiac…
First of all, and most important, all secular and non practicing Jews must return to Hashem with a full and complete heart towards repentance and Tshova. Without committing to repent with a truthful return back to Hashem, Moshiach will not come.
