Question:
A teen wants to know where did Jesus DNA come from? Since we get our DNA from male and female parent, this teen is doubting the humanity of Jesus.
Answer:
Mary is the Mother of God, the Incarnate Word, Jesus Christ. Consequently, Jesus received his DNA from the Blessed Mother, Mary and, by extension, her direct ancestors.
For more on the humanity and divinity of Jesus, please read the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC), 456ff.
