blessing for the human race. In
the perpetual (i(ht between man
kind and evil, both would be
wounded, but the final victory
would be in favor of the woman,
who would bruise the serpent's
head.
God renewed his covenant
with Abraham, who was selected
to be the father of a chosen
people, the Jews. Through them
God would bless the whole world
and this has been literally true.
The Jews have been the teachers
of religion and morality to the
world all through the eons of
time.
Throughout the history of the
Jews, as recorded in the Old
Testament, the guiding hand of
God can be seen. They prosper
ed when they kept close to Mm
and were punished when they
forgot him. All through the years,
the hope for a deliverer runs
like a bright thread. In our
Scripture lesson for this week,
we are given some of the mes
sianic propheci from the people
who suffered exile from their
homeland.
F.rekiel, a priest, was one of
those carried away with King
Jehoiahcin. He continued his
prophecies while living among
the captives in lower Babylon.
His messages before the fall of
Jerusalem were full of denun
ciation of sin and warnings of the
coming destruction of the city.
After the final fall of Jerusalem,
his messages became messages of
promise of deliverance.
Ezekiel portrayed the coming
Messiah as a shepherd of God's
flock, Israel. The former kings
he described as evil keepers who
were selfish and not interested in
what happened to their sheep.
The flock had been attacked by
wild beasts ? heathen nations ?
but God would judge the evil
shepherd and would eventually
claim the flock for his very own,
giving them a new Shepherd of
the House of David. The new
Shepherd would feed thein in
peaceful and rich pastures where
they would be unmolested by the
beasts of prey. In John 10, Jesus
stated: "I am the good shepherd:
the good shepherd giveth his life
for his sheep ... I am the good
shepherd, and know my sheep,
and am known of mine."
Daniel, about whom we studied
several weeks ago, also prophe
sied of the coming of the Mes
siah. He spoke of the promised
one as a ruler, whose kingdom
was so great that people of all
nations and of all languages
should serve him. Christ's dom
inion was everlasting for the
kingdom would never be destroy
ed.
The next prophecy comes from
Zechariah, a young man who had
returned to Jerusalem from
captivity. He foretold several
things concerning the Messiah.
He pictured the coming of the
king ? he would be just, have
salvation, be lowly, and ride on
an ass. He would speak peace to
the heathen and his dominion

would be from tea to aea and
from the river to the ends of the
earth. He also pictured what
would happen at the time of the
Saviour's death. He would be
pierced and the people would
mourn, like one mourning for Urn
only son. He also declared that
"there shall be a fountain opened
to the house of David and to the
inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin
and for uncleanness." Purification
by the use of water was familiar
to the Jews. It was easy for them
to understand that the Messiah of
the house of David would be a
Saviour who would cleanse from
?in.
While we cannot mention all
of the prophecies in the Old Tes
tament concerning the Messiah,
probably none is more familiar
to the Bible student than the
prophecies of Isaiah and his pic
ture of the suffering Saviour.
The prophecies of the Old Testa
ment are fulfilled in Christ, the
promised Messiah. The Messiah
was to be the Son of man and
Jesus described himself to others
with' that phrase. His mighty
acts, his miracles and his teach
ings showed him to be the Son
of man and the Son of God.
Christ is the Prince of . Peace,
for those who have accepted him
find peace of heart and spirit.
The crucifixion of Christ reveal
ed him as the Suffering Servant
of Jehovah, the Lamb of God
which takes away the sin of the
world. He suffered at the hands
of sinful men that man might be
saved from his sins. Surely,
Christ is the fulfilment of all the
messianic hopes of the Jewish
people ? and of the whole world.
