| | Messiah (WebBible Encyclopedia) - ChristianAnswers.Net |
 | | The Greek form "Messias" is only twice used in the New Testament, in John 1:41 and 4:25 (R.V., "Messiah"), and in the Old Testament the word Messiah, as the rendering of the Hebrew, occurs only twice (Dan 9:25,26; R.V., "the anointed one"). |
 | | The expectations of the Jews were thus kept alive from generation to generation, till the "fulness of the times," when Messiah came, "made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law." In him all these ancient prophecies have their fulfilment. |
 | | Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah, the great Deliverer who was to come. |
