God recognizes the Lord Christ as David because He is of the lineage of David according to the flesh, yet He is not a servant in essence; although, in taking human form, He became like a servant (Phil. 2:6, 7). Thus, to signify the nature He embraced, He is called a servant, born from humble beginnings according to the flesh. The eternal Son, Lord of all, is not a servant; rather, He is referred to as David due to His descent from David, perceived as a servant in human likeness. However, when God, the Word made flesh, took on this servant nature, He did not abandon His divine identity but instead elevated our humanity through His divine union. Consequently, the prophetic message reveals that unrighteousness and idolatry will cease, the fragmentation of kingdoms will be resolved, and all will be governed under one authority, guided by one shepherd, coming to know their God and Lord. They will walk in My commands, observe My laws, and they will dwell in the land I will grant to My servant Jacob. Their ancestors will inhabit it, alongside their descendants, and their children’s children for generations to come; and David, My servant, shall be their prince eternally. Let the Jews ponder who this eternal king named David is. They will likely agree that such a title does not rightly belong to Zerubbabel since he was not a reigning monarch but merely a leader and his influence terminated upon his death. If they claim this everlasting David pertains to the lineage of David, they should clarify the reigning line of David. However, if the royal heritage of David is obscure apart from this reign, one of two conclusions must be drawn: either the prophecy is false, or they must honor the reign of the Lord Christ, who is David in the flesh. The validity of the prophecy is something the Jews themselves would acknowledge, and since it indeed holds true while we see no other kingdom among the Jews, the very lineage of David remains obscure. Nonetheless, the Son of God in His divine essence, who descended from David according to the flesh, reigns as a descendant of David, holding everlasting sovereignty. Consequently, the limited perception and disbelief of the Jews stand in contrast to our knowledge of God. This is further affirmed by the subsequent declaration. God states:
