Was the birth of a messianic King revealed through the prophets?
"For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgment and justice from that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this" (Isaiah 9:6-7).
The writings of the Hebrew prophets contain many references to the coming of this divinely anointed King, specifically identified in Daniel 9:25-26 as the Messiah. The Hebrew word for Messiah means "Anointed One." In ancient Israel kings and high priests were anointed with oil when they were selected for office. The Messiah is the divinely anointed King of kings (Revelation 17:14).
