International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [5]
lin´ḗ - ā́j ( πατριά , patriā ): Found only once in Luke 2:4 (the King James Version, the Revised Version (British and American) "family"), and signifying the line of paternal family descent. A word pregnant in meaning among the Jews, who kept all family records with religious care, as may be seen from the long genealogical records found everywhere in the Old Testament.
Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [6]
(πατριά , paternal descent, "kindred," Acts 3:25; "family," Ephesians 3:15), a family or race (Luke 2:4). (See Genealogy).
