Don't need to watch. Nothing is shocking about Jesus. Except He likes to live in my heart. Whatever He does not like I should put at the cross. Freedom from yourself will follow. Shalom.
Messiah ben Joseph: The Peaceful Reign of the Messiah Israel certainly had her share of disappointing kings. The books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles attest to this history. But in Zechariah 9:9-10, the prophet points to a coming king who is unique. Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; He is just and endowed with salvation, Humble, and mounted on a donkey, Even on a colt, the foal of a donkey. And He will speak peace to the nations; And His dominion will be from sea to sea, And from the River to the ends of the earth. This isn't just any king. The prophet tells the people of Israel to be joyful, to get excited, because the promised one, the one sent from God, the long awaited king, is coming. And so this passage has been interpreted as messianic; that is, it is often supposed that the king in this passage is none other than the Messiah, the savior of Israel. Traditional Judaism teaches that "the messiah is a G-d fearing, pious Jew, who is both a Torah scholar and a great leader. He is to be a direct descendant of King David, anointed as the new Jewish King. (In fact, the Hebrew word for messiah 'Moshiach' means 'anointed one.')"1 The king is not coming to fight a war; he comes in gentleness and meekness. Many Jewish people do not give much thought to the coming of a Messiah anymore, and those who do often picture him as a mighty conqueror, even a superhero-type figure. But here in Zechariah 9, the picture is very different. The king is not coming to fight a war; he comes in gentleness and meekness. He is the king over all the earth, and he has all authority, but he comes in this humble fashion, riding on a baby donkey, as opposed to a chariot or even a great horse. This passage of Scripture provides a picture of a Messiah-king, a deliverer of salvation, gently offering his kingship to Israel and to the world. He is a man of peace for all peoples. He will proclaim peace to all the nations, not just to Israel. In our world today, peaceful people may win prizes, but they don't necessarily command authority. We've come to expect a certain amount of confidence, even arrogance, from our leaders. We expect them to do what they have to do to maintain order. Especially in Israel and the Middle East, it is difficult to fathom that someone could come to such power on peaceful terms. A king who does not fight? Yet in this passage, that is exactly what is promised. Messiah ben David: The Powerful Reign of the Messiah Later, however, Zechariah gives another description of the coming king, a picture quite different from that of chapter 9. Let's take a brief look at the context for his statement: For I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city will be captured. Then the Lord will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle. In that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, which is in front of Jerusalem on the east; and the Mount of Olives will be split in its middle from east to west by a very large valley, so that half of the mountain will move toward the north and the other half toward the south. (Zechariah 14:2-4) This picture is very much like an epic battle scene from a movie full of bloodshed and tragedy and triumph. Then, in verses 8 and 9 we read: And in that day living waters will flow out of Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and the other half toward the western sea; it will be in summer as well as in winter. And the Lord will be king over all the earth; in that day the Lord will be the only one, and His name the only one. (Zechariah 14:8-9) Chapters 9 and 14 are the central passages in Zechariah telling of this king who will reign over all the earth. In chapter 9, the king is humble, but in chapter 14, he is a force to be reckoned with. In the latter picture, the king is a conqueror; he comes in wrath, meting out judgment to the enemies of Israel. This is perhaps a more traditional picture of Messiah, a mighty hero who fights on our behalf.
"Scholars have confirmed that this scroll is nearly identical to the Masoretic Text, the basis of our modern Old Testament, proving that the Scriptures have been carefully preserved for over 2,000 years." This is quite false. That scroll has the most changes from the Masoretic text of any of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
What Christians call the old testament is the undisputed word of God written by my Jewish fathers who most certainly did not prophesy the Christian Jesus without knowing it. on the other hand the origins of the new testament are very unclear but must certainly do not confirm that a Jesus was prophesied in our Bible. For one the job description for our Messiah who is still to come is quite the opposite of the job description for the Christian Messiah, they are simply two different people. Clearly the early Christians attached their short little new testament onto our Bible to fool the unknowing into believing in the authenticity of their newly created religion.
Well dear friend how do you explain the prophecy in Daniel 9:24-26 because according to scripture this event regarding the Jewish Messiah has come to pass already and this event took place before the destruction of the second temple? Or Micah 5:1-8 and the entire chapter of Isaiah 53 plus all these other old testament references Psalm 22:1-22,16:9-10, 69:1-36, Isaiah 9:6 , 7:14-15 ect ect. I pray the Holy Spirit opens your understanding and blindness to what the old testament actually dose teach on this very important issue.
God is the same yesterday, today, and forever! Amen

Israel certainly had her share of disappointing kings. The books of Samuel, Kings, and Chronicles attest to this history. But in Zechariah 9:9-10, the prophet points to a coming king who is unique.
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion!
Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem!
Behold, your king is coming to you;
He is just and endowed with salvation,
Humble, and mounted on a donkey,
Even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
And He will speak peace to the nations;
And His dominion will be from sea to sea,
And from the River to the ends of the earth.

It's such an inspiration I can't help reading it over and over ❤
My heart break for every channel like this who uses Jesus name to make money.
What about the churches? They basically do the same thing. Christian singers, channel, Biblical Societies that make bible translations.
@@crisdoxavier if they do it for money then its wrong, don't you think so?
