What does Luke 3:27 mean?

Jesus is a descendant of David (2 Samuel 7:12–16). Matthew (Matthew 1:1) and Luke (Luke 3:23) both establish this, apparently using different lines. Most of the names in Luke's genealogy are obscure, unless the men are namesakes of more famous people like Levi, Joseph, and Amos. At this point, Luke's list touches on a name well-known from the Old Testament: Zerubbabel.

Zerubbabel was born in Babylon during Israel's exile (2 Kings 25:2–12). He returned as a governor during the rebuilding period and was a key figure in repairing the destroyed temple (Ezra 3:8–10). Though not thought of often in modern Christian teaching, Zerubbabel was one of Israel's heroic figures in the period between the exile and the appearance of Jesus.
