King of the Jews

ISAIAH 53:8 “For he was cut off from the land of the living; from the trespass [the murderous conspiracy] of my people the stroke (was) to him. And he [by way of crucifixion] put his grave with the wicked [for according to the Jewish law anyone crucified was accounted as accursed by God]…”


NOTE: Provervs 21:18 “The [demand for righteous legal action against the] wicked [shall be] a ransom [a means of release for] the righteous; and in the place of the upright (shall be) the treacherous.”

ISAIAH 53:9 “And he [by way of crucifixion] put his grave with the wicked [as though one having met the legal demands for the law], and with a rich (man) [King David- through the fulfilling the prophecies] in his death though he [Jesus] had not done violence, and deceit (was) not in his mouth.”

(Out of Context Quote, via “Study Notes”): “There is more than one Messianic prophecy in the Old Testament that predicted that the line of kings that began with King David, about 3000 years ago, would be everlasting or eternal. History shows that most dynasties throughout history, throughout the world, were lucky if they lasted more than a few generations. Jesus is unique in his ability to fulfill this promise that God had made to David that his throne would endure forever.”
