The Crucified Messiah

Jesús es el Hijo de David y heredero del Trono Mesiánico, el Hijo amado de Dios y el Siervo Sufriente de Yahvé . El Evangelio de Mateo  declara que Jesús es el prometido “ Hijo de David .” Este mismo Jesús demostró lo que significa ser el Rey de Israel, especialmente a través de su muerte sacrificial. Tradicional y bíblicamente, el rey ideal esperado estaba vinculado a la Casa de David. Con la llegada del Nazareno, ese entendimiento se alteró para siempre.

Jesus is the Son of David and heir to the Messianic Throne, the beloved Son of God, and the Suffering Servant of Yahweh . The  Gospel of Matthew  declares Jesus to be the promised “ Son of David .” This same Jesus demonstrated what it means to be the King of Israel, especially through his sacrificial death. Traditionally and scripturally, the hoped-for ideal king was linked to the House of David. With the arrival of the Nazarene, that understanding was forever altered.

The name ‘Jesus’ means “Yahweh saves.” In the man of Nazareth, the salvation promised by the God of Abraham has arrived . The child carried by Mary was “ begotten of the Holy Spirit .” The angel instructed Joseph to name this child ‘Jesus’: “ Call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins .” His name pointed to the saving act of God that was about to unfold in History.
