What are some of the credentials of the Messiah?

The Hebrew Bible and the Jewish sages describe the Messiah in more detail than many realize.

From these writings we can know his genealogical background, place of birth, the timeframe of his arrival, and other identifying characteristics.

These credentials enable us to identify the Messiah and to recognize imposters. Only a few can be listed below; there are many others.

Early rabbis and sages recognized all of these passages as referring to the Messiah.

  • Messiah would be from the tribe of Judah: Genesis 49:10 ( Hebrew)
  • Messiah would be a descendant of King David: 2 Samuel 7:12-16 ( Hebrew)
  • Messiah was to be born at Bethlehem: Micah 5:2 ( Hebrew – Micah 5:1)
  • Messiah would arrive before the destruction of the Second Temple: Daniel 9:24-27 ( Hebrew)
  • Messiah would present himself by riding on a donkey: Zechariah 9:9 ( Hebrew)
  • Messiah would be tortured to death: Psalm 22:1-31 ( Hebrew)
  • Messiah’s life would match a particular description, including suffering, silence at his arrest and trial, death and burial in a rich man’s tomb, and resurrection: Isaiah 52:13-53:12 ( Hebrew – Is. 52; Hebrew – Is. 53)
In regard to lineage, birthplace, time, and lifestyle, Jesus matched the Messianic expectations of the Hebrew Scriptures.

The record of this fulfillment is to be found in the pages of the New Testament. But several other factors combine to further substantiate the Messiahship of Jesus.
