The Promised One

Yeshayahu 53

Prophecies of the Mashiach across the Tanakh

Yeshayahu 53“Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by Elohim, and afflicted. But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed.”

Before the exile from Eden was complete, Elohim embedded a promise in the curse: the seed of the woman will crush the serpent's head. Redemption was planned from the beginning.

Jacob prophesied that the ruler would come from Judah. Centuries later, Matthew opens his Good News with a genealogy proving Yeshua's royal line — from Abraham through David through Judah.

But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah — out of you will come a ruler. Seven hundred years before Yeshua's birth, the address was given.

The virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. Not just a prophet, not just a king — Elohim Himself, dwelling with His people.

Written 700 years before Yeshua, Yeshayahu 53 describes a servant who bears the sins of many. The Tanakh itself points to what is coming.

Tehillim 22 opens with the very words Yeshua cried from the cross. It describes pierced hands, divided garments, and public mockery — written centuries before crucifixion existed as a practice.

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Your king comes to you, humble, riding on a donkey. Not in conquest but in peace. This king is unlike any other.

Immersion and Temptation

Mattityahu 3:13-17

Anointed and tested before ministry begins

Yeshua didn't need cleansing. He entered the water to fulfil all righteousness. And heaven opened: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Led by the Ruach into the wilderness. Forty days — echoing Israel's forty years. But where Israel failed, Yeshua stood. Every temptation answered with Scripture.

In His hometown synagogue, Yeshua unrolled the scroll to Yeshayahu 61. Good news to the poor, freedom for the captive. Today this is fulfilled in your hearing. Then they tried to kill Him.

Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Immediately they left their nets. No deliberation, no planning committee. The call demands a response.

The people were amazed — He taught as one having authority, not as the scribes. And even the unclean spirits obeyed. This was someone entirely new.

Chapter 3 of 8

The Teacher

Yochanan 3:1-21

Parables and wisdom that overturned the world

A Pharisee, a teacher of Israel, came to Yeshua with questions. The answer he received changed everything: the kingdom requires a new birth, a transformation from the inside out.

Yeshua's greatest sermon turns the world's values upside down: the meek inherit the earth, the peacemakers are Elohim's children, and love extends even to enemies.

The same seed falls on different soil. The Word is constant — the variable is the heart that receives it. What kind of ground are you giving Elohim to work with?

The most famous parable ever told. The younger son who wasted everything. The older son who resented grace. And a father who ran. The story is about the Father.

A priest passed by. A Levi passed by. But a despised Samaritan stopped. Love your neighbour means everyone — especially the one you'd rather avoid.

Abide in me. Not try harder, not perform better — abide. Stay connected. The fruit comes from the connection, not the effort.

They came because He fed them. He told them: I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never hunger. He wasn't offering food — He was offering Himself.

Chapter 4 of 8The Kingdom Preacher
Chapter 4 of 8

The Kingdom Preacher

Mattityahu 5:1-12

The upside-down values of Elohim's reign

The constitution of the kingdom. Everything the world values is reversed. The last are first. The humble are exalted. The hungry are filled.

Not you should be salt — you ARE salt. Identity, not assignment. If the salt loses its saltiness, it is worthless. Be who you are.

Love your enemies. Pray for those who persecute you. This is not natural — it is supernatural. Only the Ruach can produce this kind of love.

Not long prayers. Not public displays. Go into your room. Pray like this. Adonai's Prayer is a template for intimacy, not a formula for performance.

Seek first the Kingdom of Elohim and His righteousness, and all these things will be added. Worry assumes you are alone. Faith knows the Father sees.

Everyone who hears these words and does them is like a wise man who built his house on rock. The storm came — and it stood. Obedience is the foundation.

Chapter 5 of 8The Last Supper
Chapter 5 of 8

The Last Supper

Yochanan 13:1-17

The final night before the cross

Knowing that He had come from Elohim and was going to Elohim, He got up from supper, laid aside His garments, and began to wash their feet. Power expressed as service.

This is my body, given for you. This cup is the new covenant in my blood. At the Pesach seder — the meal of deliverance — Yeshua revealed that He is the true Lamb.

A new mitzvah: love one another as I have loved you. Not as the law commands — as I have loved you. Sacrificially, unconditionally, to the end.

I will ask the Father and He will give you another Helper. Peace I leave with you. On His last night, Yeshua's greatest concern was that they would not be alone.

My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. He sweated blood. He asked for the cup to pass. And then: Not my will, but yours be done. Obedience at the highest cost.

Chapter 6 of 8

The Cross

Mattityahu 26:47-56

Everything converges here

Friend, do what you came to do. Yeshua called Judah 'friend' even in the act of betrayal. He was not surprised. He was not bitter. He was resolute.

Like a lamb before its shearers is silent, so He did not open His mouth. The trial was unjust. The verdict was predetermined. And Yeshua — the judge of all the earth — submitted to human judgement.

My kingdom is not of this world. Pilate found no fault in Him — and delivered Him to be crucified anyway. Political convenience defeated justice. It often does.

The Pesach Lamb of Elohim. Everything the Tanakh pointed to — the sacrificial system, the suffering servant, the smitten shepherd — converges at the cross.

Seven statements from the cross — forgiveness, promise, care, anguish, thirst, completion, surrender. In His dying, Yeshua revealed the full range of Elohim's heart.

At the moment of His death, the temple curtain tore — from top to bottom. Not by human hands. Elohim Himself opened the way into His presence. No more barriers.

Joseph of Arimathea asked for the body. Nicodemus brought spices. Secret followers stepped forward at the worst moment. Sometimes faith shows up in the silence.

Chapter 7 of 8

The Resurrection

Mattityahu 28

Death defeated — everything changes

The story doesn't end at the cross. On the third day — on Yom HaBikkurim, the Feast of Firstfruits — the stone was rolled away. Death was defeated. The kingdom is here.

She thought He was the gardener. Then He said her name: Mary. She turned. Rabboni! The risen Yeshua's first appearance was to a woman — the first witness of the greatest event in history.

Unless I see the nail marks, I will not believe. Yeshua didn't rebuke Thomas — He showed him. My Adonai and my Elohim! Doubt is not the opposite of faith — it is the doorway.

Two disciples walking away from Jerusalem in despair. A stranger joined them and opened all the Scriptures — Moses and the Prophets — showing how they all point to Mashiach. Then He broke bread.

Three denials. Three questions. Do you love me? Feed my sheep. Peter who failed was Peter who was restored. The risen Yeshua doesn't discard failures — He recommissions them.

"Mashiach has been raised from the dead. His resurrection is not a one-time miracle — it is a guarantee: "Because I live, you will live also" (Yochanan 14:19).

Chapter 8 of 8

The Ascension and Reign

Mattityahu 28:16-20

Seated at the right hand — still active

All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go. The mission flows from His authority, not human ability. And He promises: I am with you always.

He was lifted up, and a cloud received Him. Two malakim said: This same Yeshua will come back in the same way. The ascension is not an ending — it is an intermission.

"We don't have a high priest who can't be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin" (Ivrim 4:15). Approach the throne of grace with boldness (Ivrim 4:16).

"Who is he who condemns? Right now. Not past tense. Present and active.

He did not consider equality with Elohim something to be grasped. He emptied Himself. He humbled Himself. And therefore — every knee will bow and every tongue confess: Yeshua is Adonai.
