Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his
feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be."

727. During the life of the Messiah. Aenigmatis. Ezek. l7.

His forerunner. Malachi 3.

He will be born an infant. Is. 9.

He will be born in the village of Bethlehem. Micah 5. He will appear chiefly
in Jerusalem and will be a descendant of the family of Judah and of David.

He is to blind the learned and the wise, Is. 6, 8, 29. etc.; and to preach
the Gospel to the lowly, Is. 29; to open the eyes of the blind, give health
to the sick, and bring light to those that languish in darkness. Is. 61.

He is to show the perfect way, and be the teacher of the Gentiles. Is. 55;
43:1-7.

The prophecies are to be unintelligible to the wicked, Dan. 12; Hosea 14:10;
but they are to be intelligible to those who are well informed.

The prophecies, which represent Him as poor, represent Him as master of the
nations. Is. 52:14, etc.; 53; Zech. 9:9.

The prophecies, which foretell the time, foretell Him only as master of the
nations and suffering, and not as in the clouds nor as judge. And those,
which represent Him thus as judge and in glory, do not mention the time.
When the Messiah is spoken of as great and glorious, it is as the judge of
the world, and not its Redeemer.

He is to be the victim for the sins of the world. Is. 39:53. etc.

He is to be the precious corner-stone. Is. 28:16.

He is to be a stone of stumbling and offence. Is. viii. Jerusalem is to dash
against this stone.

The builders are to reject this stone. Ps. 117:22.

God is to make this stone the chief corner-stone.

And this stone is to grow into a huge mountain and fill the whole earth.
Dan. 2.

So He is to be rejected, despised, betrayed (Ps. 108:8), sold (Zech. 11:12),
spit upon, buffeted, mocked, afflicted in innumerable ways, given gall to
drink (Ps. 68), pierced (Zech. 12
