The Messiah The Tanakh Actually Promises by sonmvayina(op): 12:38pm On Nov 06
Mashiach is not a figure who comes, dies, rises, and leaves the world waiting for the rest of the promises to happen.

In Tanakh it describes a future of restoration, justice, peace, the reunification of Israel, and the universal recognition of HaShem.

Lets look at what the prophets actually say......

1. MASHIACH IS CONNECTED TO THE RESTORATION OF ISRAEL

Jeremiah 23:5–8
A righteous Branch from David who will reign as king, administer justice, and bring Judah AND Israel to dwell securely. It even describes the gathering of Israel from the lands where they were scattered.

Ezekiel 37:21–28
The gathering of the children of Israel from the nations, our reunification as one nation, and David as our king. HaShem establishes an everlasting covenant of peace with us not a new testament.

This is not merely a promise of an invisible spiritual kingdom. The prophecy speaks about Israel, its people, its restoration, and its future under HaShem's appointed ruler.

2. MASHIACHS REIGN BRINGS WORLDWIDE PEACE

Isaiah 2:2–4 describes the nations coming to learn HaShems ways. Not mashiachs ways

They will turn their weapons into agricultural tools, and nation will no longer lift up sword against nation.

Micah 4:1–4 repeats this vision, describing people living securely, each under their own vine and fig tree, without fear.

Isaiah 11:6–9
A world in which violence and destruction cease.

These are extraordinary promises. The prophets describe a transformed world, not simply a religious movement spreading while warfare, oppression, and injustice continue.

3. THE NATIONS WILL RECOGNIZE HASHEM NO OTHER NAME.

Zechariah 14:9 HaShem will be King over all the earth.

Isaiah 45:23 declares that every knee will bow and every tongue will swear allegiance to Him (HaShem)

Jeremiah 16:19–21 nations coming from the ends of the earth and recognizing that their former gods were false.

The destination of the nations is the worship and recognition of HaShem. The prophets repeatedly direct humanity toward the G-D of Israel.

4. THE TORAH REMAINS CENTRAL TO THE FUTURE

Isaiah 2:3 says that Torah will go forth from Zion and the word of HaShem from Jerusalem.

Micah 4:2 gives the same vision.

Ezekiel 36:26–27 describes HaShem giving Israel a new heart and putting His spirit within them so they will walk in His statutes and observe His commandments.

Jeremiah 31:31–34 Arenewed covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, with TORAH written upon their hearts.

Notice what the prophets envision people living in obedience to HaShem, not the disappearance of His Torah or worship of another.

5. THE DAVIDIC MESSIAH SERVES HASHEM

Jeremiah 33:14–17 HaShem fulfilling His promise to David through a righteous Branch who will execute justice and righteousness.

Ezekiel 34:23–24 describes David as a shepherd over Israel, while HaShem Himself remains our G-D.

Ezekiel 37:24–25 again identifies David as HaShem's servant and king.

The picture is consistent HaShem appoints His ruler, establishes His kingdom, restores His people, and brings justice to the earth.

THE POINT

Christianity has its interpretation of these passages, but an interpretation is not the same as the plain promises written in the Hebrew.

The prophets describe Israel restored, Jerusalem elevated, the nations learning Torah, worldwide peace, justice, and the universal recognition of HaShem.

These promises should not be dismissed, spiritualized away, or treated as unimportant.

I stand with the words of the prophets. I believe HaShem's promises. I believe His covenant remains meaningful, His Torah remains holy, and His word will accomplish everything He has declared.

The future belongs to HaShem.

All nations will recognize His sovereignty. All creation will witness His greatness. And His Name will be exalted throughout the earth.

All glory belongs to HaShem alone.

it has not happened.....there is still wars and oppression.....

Isaiah says " men will hammer their swords into ploughshares......and learn of war no more...


that has not happened, so it is safe to say that the time spoken about has not come and by extension, the God's chosen messiah.

Is it you who is to tell whether the Messiah is to die or not Muslim?

Plus, Revelations shows peace and goodness comes in the new world and not in this world where things are getting worse as Jesus and the new testament prophecises. So, you miss.

God created the earth to be inhabitanted by humans. We out of ignorance has created different religions to mislead people like Christianity. But in the beginning God only gave us divine laws to follow so that we live in peace. But people have created religion to control people.
God, through his prophets said a time is coming were everybody will know him and follow his laws. There will be no more wars and oppression of any kind. The person that will lead us into that era is the Messiah. He will also gather all Jews back to the promised land and bring peace with their neighbors......
The Messiah is not coming to die for sins. God has already given a solution to the problem of sin...see 2nd chronicles 7:14

He is called the "Lord" , Heavenly armies bow to His commands , the Spirit of the Lord is in Him yet you say He is not Divine ?

Only a Divine Being can do all that have been shown to the Prophets that He would do . His emergence is so grand that the Heavenly bodies would shake! Water bodies would rise, earth would quake, Babylon would crumble before His power etc this cannot be for a mere mortal .

Yes, He is in flesh , identity undisclosed and His power shielded, but when His time has come, He would come on the scene after a great levelling tribulation has taken place...and it is not far any longer .

Africa is the prophetic Israel and Nigeria is the Prophetic Jerusalem. Many souls who were Jewish in the time of Jesus are now amongst the blacks.

Those who went into the Transatlantic Slavery are of Judah for West Africa is the prophetic Judah.

When the Lion of Judah rises, He would surely gather His people all over the world to the motherland. He would end evil governments on His Land and as the Son of God, He would reign. He would provide abundance to the people. Everyone shall own a home and enjoy the good things of life for free in exchange for kingdom duties and obedience to the Will of God which He would teach and entrench all over the world.

I could go into details about this but let me stop here for now.

Shalom.

The Messiah will not come to be nailed to a cross, then sit beside God for two thousand years.

are you suggesting that the Jewish messiah will also rule Nigeria or Ghana?

the concept of a messiah is a Jewish concept
While the Messiah will be an absolute king over the Jewish people in the Land of Israel, he will not dissolve the identity of other nations. Non-Jewish nations will retain their distinct cultures and governments, but they will look to Jerusalem for moral direction. The world will be united under a shared commitment to universal morality, specifically formalized through the Seven Laws of Noah, which include prohibitions against murder, theft, and idolatry.
