[Refers to God's Son, Jesus, a
direct descendant of David] Great
deliverance giveth he to his king;
and sheweth mercy to his anointed,
to David, and to his seed for
evermore.
(Psalm 18:50)
[Portrays graphically the
crucifixion of Jesus Christ; see
Matthew 27]
They gaped upon me with their
mouths, as a ravening and a
roaring lion. I am poured out like
water, and all my bones are out of
joint: my heart is like wax; it is
melted in the midst of my bowels.
My strength is dried up like a
potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth
to my jaws; and thou hast brought
me into the dust of death. For
dogs have compassed me: the
assembly of the wicked have
inclosed me: they pierced my hands
and my feet. I may tell all my
bones: they look and stare upon
me. They part my garments among
them, and cast lots upon my
vesture.
(Psalm 22:13-18)
[Refers to the Resurrection of
Jesus Christ; see John 20:17]
I will declare thy name unto my
brethren: in the midst of the
congregation will I praise thee.
For he hath not despised nor
abhorred the affliction of the
afflicted; neither hath he hid his
face from him; but when he cried
unto him, he heard.
(Psalm 22:22,24)
[Refers to the restoration of
God's Kingdom in the end times;
see 1 Corinthians 15:23,24] A seed
shall serve him; it shall be
accounted to the Lord for a
generation. They shall come, and
shall declare his righteousness
unto a people that shall be born,
that he hath done this.
(Psalm 22:30,31)
[Refers to the resurrection of
Jesus Christ, who was raised from
the dead three days after being
crucified, and event witnessed by
many] I waited patiently for the
LORD; and he inclined unto me, and
heard my cry. He brought me up
also out of an horrible pit, out
of the miry clay, and set my feet
upon a rock, and established my
goings. And he hath put a new song
in my mouth, even praise unto our
God: many shall see it, and fear,
and shall trust in the LORD.
(Psalm 40:1-3)
[Refers to the advent of Jesus
Christ; see Luke 2:30,31]
The LORD hath made known his
salvation: his righteousness hath
he openly shewed in the sight of
the heathen. He hath remembered
his mercy and his truth toward the
house of Israel: all the ends of
the earth have seen the salvation
of our God.
(Psalm 98:2,3)
[Refers to the end times when
Jesus Christ will rule the world;
Jesus is a priest like Melchizedek
since He has no beginning and
promises peace; see 1 Corinthians
15:25; Hebrews 5:6] The LORD said unto my
Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
until I make thine enemies thy
footstool. The LORD shall send the
rod of thy strength out of Zion:
rule thou in the midst of thine
enemies. The LORD hath sworn, and
will not repent, Thou art a priest
for ever after the order of
Melchizedek. The Lord at thy right
hand shall strike through kings in
the day of his wrath. He shall judge among the
heathen, he shall fill the places
with the dead bodies; he shall
wound the heads over many
countries. He shall drink of the
brook in the way: therefore shall
he lift up the head.
(Psalm 110:1,2,4-7)
[Jerusalem will be the site of the
eternal kingdom of Jesus Christ;
see Revelation 21]
The LORD doth build up Jerusalem:
he gathereth together the outcasts
of Israel.
(Psalm 147:2)
But
with righteousness shall he judge
the poor, and reprove with equity
for the meek of the earth: and he
shall smite the earth: with the
rod of his mouth, and with the
breath of his lips shall he slay
the wicked.
(Isaiah 11:4)
Behold, the former things are come
to pass, and new things do I
declare: before they spring forth
I tell you of them.
(Isaiah 42:9)
The
wolf and the lamb shall feed
together, and the lion shall eat
straw like the bullock: and dust
shall be the serpent's meat. They
shall not hurt nor destroy in all
my holy mountain, saith the LORD.
(Isaiah 65:25)
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to
the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be
increased.
(Daniel 12:4)
For, behold, the LORD will come
with fire, and with his chariots
like a whirlwind, to render his
anger with fury, and his rebuke
with flames of fire.
For by fire and by his sword
will the LORD plead with all
flesh: and the slain of the LORD
shall be many.
(Isaiah 66:15,16)
If any man worship the beast and
his image, and receive his mark in
his forehead, or in his hand, the
same shall drink of the wine of
the wrath of God, which is poured
out without mixture into the cup
of his indignation.
(Revelation 14:9,10)
And I
saw as it were a sea of glass
mingled with fire: and them that
had gotten the victory over the
beast, and over his image, and
over his mark, and over the number
of his name, stand on the sea of
glass, having the harps of God.
(Revelation 15:2)
And
the seventh angel poured out his
vial into the air; and there came
a great voice out of the temple of
heaven, from the throne, saying,
It is done.
And there were voices,
and thunders, and lightnings; and
there was a great earthquake, such
as was not since men were upon the
earth, so mighty an earthquake,
and so great.
And the great city was divided
into three parts, and the cities
of the nations fell: and great
Babylon came in remembrance before
God, to give unto her the cup of
the wine of the fierceness of his
wrath.
(Revelation 16:17-19)
