An alert student came forward with evidence to the contrary, which proves the usage of the word Mashiach ‘hidden’ in Psalms 2. While the intent of this ‘evidence’ was to prove us wrong, quite the opposite emerged. When taking the content of this passage in its full context, it actually irretrievably proves our controversial and somewhat astounding conclusions which we have been building up over the last few weeks and months. If anyone still wants to refute or discredit these conclusions, please note that it all was derived from Rabbinic commentaries on the weekly Parashiyot – HaShem’s great teaching medium.
While certainly at great risk, this all simply proves that there is great merit in “dare to think.” The Word of HaShem, in the end, rules supreme – and the unveiling of Truth is progressive – no greater proof of this than discovering the Biblical Truth surrounding “the true Identity of the Mystical Mashiach,” which has for so long eluded even staunch Biblical commentators. And what has been accepted for such an elusive Personage throughout the ages has only aided great division and bloodshed.
So, let us delve into Ps. 2. It would be preferential that you first read the entire Psalm for yourself in your selected Bible version. We will then scrutinize it together here below. Again: YOUR comments are welcomed. PLEASE participate. The intensive discussions which resulted this week, have proven this great merit. You decide for yourself from what follows from this enlightening Psalm.
Psalm 2 (World English Bible version).
1 Why do the nations rage,
and the peoples plot a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth take a stand,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against HaShem, and against his Anointed [Mashiach, Hebr.}, saying,
3 “Let’s break their bonds apart,
and cast their cords from us.”
4 He who sits in the heavens will laugh.
The Lord will have them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his anger,
and terrify them in his wrath:
6 “Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”
7 I will tell of the decree:
HaShem said to me, “You are My son.
Today I have become your father.
8 Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance,
the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.
9 You shall rule them with a rod of iron.
You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
10 Now therefore be wise, you kings.
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve HaShem with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
12 Give sincere homage to the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish on the way,
for his wrath will soon be kindled.
Blessed are all those who take refuge in him.”
“The Son” in this passage does not refer to “the Son of HaShem” as Christians render their Messiah, but, indeed, to that Body which HaShem is raising up in the End Times, ‘His Servant,’ who will rule over the Nations (as HaShem). (Click to open). We have seen how Daniel in ch. 7 refers to this ruling ‘Body’ of righteous declared Kedushim (Saints) as “ One like the Son of Man.” It is this ‘Servant,’ the Son, who shall be that “Mashiach, the ruling One.”
Daniel 7:13, “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a Son of Man, coming with the clouds of heaven.”
Daniel 7:23, “He gave me this explanation … v. 27 Then the sovereignty, power, and greatness of all the kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the holy people (‘Kedushim’) of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey him.” This refers to “One like the Son of Man coming on the Cloud,” the Kedushim (saints, elected by God in the Final Judgment at His Coming and perfected in His Image (by His granting them the New Covenant– Jer. 31 v. 1 – 33). Refer to 50 various translations of Daniel 7:27 re, the use of the word “worship” translated from the original Aramaic in which the Book of Daniel appears in the Hebrew Bible: https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Daniel%207:27
This Psalm projects it all for the Future – when HaShem shall set His ruling King on the Throne In Jerusalem (v.6), declaring him ‘His Son’ (v. 7), to whom He shall award the Eternal Rule ‘with a rod of iron’ (v. 9) over the Nations. And He reprimands these nations to worship His Son! (v. 12). Note this verse’s translation into some 50 English versions.
And note the punch line, about which HaShem laughs at the opposing kings of the nations who challenge “His and His Mashiach’s Rule.” (v. 2).

Dare to consider alternative views.

lm, a 75-year-old Aussie lady who saw all these many years ago, l tried to tell my X witness friends who by the way put me through hell for many years that (Yeshua Jesus) was not the Messiah and there are many reasons why he was not the Messiah and that the true servant was Israel.
l did not understand why my heart loved the Israel anthem and why l love Jewish music, and why I’m the only one in my family that even loves Yehovah who has taken my hand all these years. It’s so hard all alone to keep going but Elohim my Dear Father keeps me in his bosom of protection even when my life has been close to peril so many times because the devil fights me all the way to destroy me.
Shalom Patricia ! My name is Eliav I am 50 years old and l completely sympathize with your story ! I was a christian for about 10 years , very zealous l might add as well . However l began seeing what you have seen and lost all of my old friends except one ( Baruch HaShem) . I converted to Judaism , l now read Hebrew although my friend has not been able to find a Shul and a Rabbi to work with so she believes in One God , studies Torah law and Jewish halachah and we both believe very much in an Eventual re-unification of Yehudah and Ephraim ! Just know that one day we will ALL be together forever in HaShem’s kingdom ! You are a brave woman and God will certainly reward you in His perfect timing ! Shalom !
