Shealtiel Salathiel

From BiblePortal Wikipedia

Shealtiel Salathiel [1]

Son or grandson of Jehoiachin or Jeconiah, king of Judah.  1 Chronicles 3:17;  Ezra 3:2,8;  Ezra 5:2;  Nehemiah 12:1;  Haggai 1:1,12,14;  Haggai 2:2,23;  Matthew 1:12 .

In  Luke 3:27 , Salathiel is called the son of Neri, and this is supposed to be the true descent, and that Salathiel was the heir of Jehoiachin. The royal line would thus revert from the descendants of Solomon ( Jeremiah 22:30 ), to those of David through Nathan.
