The Moshiach Messiah From King David's Line

Nadene Goldfoot                                     

David, King of Israel was born in about 1030 BCE. in Bethlehem to Jesse and the daughter of Ithra.  Jesse's ancestors were:  

                  King David:  Youngest son  of Jesse.  At age 25 he became the armor-bearer for King Saul.  His son was friend of King Saul's son, Jonathan.  David fought against the Philistines. 

 He married Saul's daughter, Michal.  Saul became very jealous of David, and it was so serious that it drove David to seek refuge with King of Gath-Achish.  David returned to Israel when Saul and his sons were killed in battle.  David was such a favored son of Israel that people still sing songs about him today;  Dah-vid-Melech Yisrael, khie, Khie, Vik ......

Judah, 4th  of the 12 sons of  Jacob.  From Judah came: Perez and Zerah (twins), Hezron, Ram or Arom, Amminadab, Nahshon, Boaz and Elimelach and Salma or Salmon, and Obed (father of Jesse).  I figure that they are all carrying the J1 haplotype of the Cohen line of Jews which came from Aaron, brother of Moses.  

From Jesse, who was the grandson of Ruth and Boaz and lived in Bethleham,  came Abigail, Zeruiah, Eliab born about 1010 BCE, Shimea, Nethanel, Raddai, Ozem, and David-our King of Israel (1010-970 BCE) .  He moved to Moab for a time out of fear of Saul.                                               

  Israel's first king, King Saul, selected and blessed by the prophet, Samuel.  Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin and was the son of Kish.  Kish's father was Bela- Abiel of tribe of Benjamin.  

• 1 Samuel 9:1-3 Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power. 2 And he had a son, whose name was Saul, a choice young man, and a goodly: and there was not among the children of Israel a goodlier person than he: from his shoulders and upward he was higher than any of the people. 3 And the asses of Kish Saul's father were lost. And Kish said to Saul his son, Take now one of the servants with thee, and arise, go seek the asses.

David's 1st wife was Michal Eglah born about 1040 BCE.  .  Michal was Saul's youngest daughter.  She helped David escape Saul's jealousy.  Saul then married her to another man when he returned to Judah.  She died childless. Saul’s sons were Jonathan, Ishvi and Malki-Shua. The name of his older daughter was Merab, and that of the younger was Michal.  His wife’s name was Ahinoam daughter of Ahimaaz. 

 He later married Abigail-his 2nd wife who had Daniel Chileab 2nd son and Adonijah;   Bathsheba (Solomon's mother) and also mother of Shammua and Shobab, Maachah from Geshur who had 3rd child, Absalom,  Merab, and  Haggith (mother of Adonijah the Fourth Son).  Adonijah claimed the throne and had support from Joab and Abiathur, but didn't get it as Solomon did.  He later wanted to marry Abishag, David's concubine, and Solomon saw this as a political move to take the throne, so had him killed.  (1King 1-2).  Solomon took the throne before David had died.  

Solomon's children were  Rehoboam, 1st king of Judah after Solomon died  It's said that Solomon had 1,000 wives in his harem and many more concubines.  Most of the people carrying DNA from Solomon must come come from his many wives.  One main wife was Naamah the Ammonite--mother of Rehoboam, the next king.  After he became king, the kingdom split into 2 with only Judah, Simeon and most of Benjamin remaining loyal to the Solomon line because of the tax business and working conditions of being forced labor.  Shishak of Egypt invaded at this weak time, seeing his opportunity.  

The kings of Judah were first guided by Rehoboam (933-917 BCE) who carried out his father's tax wishes to finish the Temple. 

Abijam (917-915 BCE)  2 years

Asa (915-875 BCE)  40 years

Jehoshaphat (875-851 BCE)  24 years

Jehoram (851-844 BCE)  7 years

Ahaziah (844-843 BCE)  1 year

Athalia, Queen (843-837 BCE)  6 years

Joash (837-798 BCE  39 years

Amaziah  (798-780 BCE)  2 years

Azariah [Uzziah] 780-740 BCE  40 years

Jotham (740-735 BCE  5 years

Ahaz (735-720 BCE  15 years

Hezekiah (720-692 BCE  28 years

Manasseh (692-638 BCE  54 years; took the throne at age 12, worst king they ever had;  had cancelled his fathers' reforms,  brought back pagan practices, put many to death that were monotheists;  paid tribute to Assyrian rulers, was a captive in Babylon; said that Assyrian pressure caused his pagan practices

Jehoiakim (608-598 BCE  10 years

Jehoiachin (598-597 BCE  1 year

Zedekiah (597-586 BCE  11 years

Including Rehoboam, there are 347 years of rule over Judah by Solomon's descendants.  All these kings should be carrying the J1 haplogroup as their male descendants should also be carrying.  

I must have left out many names of a king's children, but this gives us the idea.  

Anyone declaring to be the Moshiach Messiah today should have J1, the Cohen gene.  

The Messiah in Judaism (Hebrew: מָשִׁיחַ, romanized: māšīaḥ) is a savior and liberator figure in Jewish eschatology, who is believed to be the future redeemer of the Jewish people. The concept of messianism originated in Judaism, and in the Hebrew Bible a messiah is a king or High Priest of Israel traditionally anointed with holy anointing oil. However, messiahs were not exclusively Jewish, as the Hebrew Bible refers to Cyrus the Great, king of the first Persian empire, as a messiah for his decree to rebuild the Jerusalem Temple.

Cyrus II 529 BCE-was the king of Persia, ironically today's Iran. In 538 BCE he granted permission to the Jews in his country to return to Jerusalem and rebuild their Temple.  These Jewish exiles regarded him as a Divine agent.  It's also said that he is the son of Queen Esther, the Jewish Queen married to king Ahashueros of Persia.  

In Jewish eschatology, the Messiah is a future Jewish king from the Davidic line, who is expected to be anointed with holy anointing oil and rule the Jewish people during the Messianic Age and world to come. The Messiah is often referred to as "King Messiah" (Hebrew: מלך משיח, romanized: melekh mashiach) or malka meshiḥa in Aramaic.

Jewish messianism gave birth to Christianity, which started as a Second Temple period messianic Jewish sect or religious movement.
