About this listen

Around this time of year, we sing songs about the Messiah and celebrate the baby born to save us all. But do we truly understand the depth of what "Messiah" means? In Hebrew, "Messiah" translates to Mashiach (מָשִׁיחַ), meaning "anointed one." It signifies someone consecrated with holy oil, chosen by God for a unique purpose. In Jewish tradition, the Messiah refers to a future king from the lineage of David who will deliver Israel and restore its glory.

As part of our Christmas Theology Three-Part Deep Dive, we are having a conversation with Israel Lambert. The meaning of Messiah reflects a hope that points to the richness of God’s redemptive plan for humanity. This plan began long before the manger in Bethlehem and stretches into eternity, reminding us of the profound story woven throughout Scripture.
