Mar 30, 2024 · The title “Son of David” is more than a mere genealogical reference; it is a testament to Jesus’ fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. According to the scriptures, the Messiah was prophesied to emerge from the lineage of David, the second king of Israel, symbolizing a perpetuation of David’s royal lineage and divine covenant.

The dispute of some arose over the curse on the royal ...
Once again we meet the Book of Zerubbabel (previous discussion here). It’s a late work, but we’ll be patient with Johnson and continue to follow his argument. As we saw earlier, the book claims that the messiah was born at the time of David but remains hidden (disguised as a destitute vagabond) until the time comes for him to be revealed to the wor...
Adonijah, the fourth son of King David from Haggith (2 Samuel 3:4). He attempted to usurp the throne during the life of David (1 Kings 1:11ff). Solomon had him executed after being warned to remember his place in the line of succession per King David’s instruction regarding the crown. 1 Kings 1:32–35; 1:50–53; 2:13–25.
Jan 26, 2023 · Jesus’ point in asking the question of Mark 12:35 was that the Messiah is more than the physical son of David. If He is David’s Lord, He must be greater than David. As Jesus says in Revelation 22:16, “I am the Root and the Offspring of David.” That is, He is both the Creator of David and the Descendant of David.
