Comments on: “My Son” as Midrash http://yeshuaincontext.com/2012/02/my-son-as-midrash/ The Life and Times of Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah Tue, 04 Mar 2014 16:51:07 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: John Bernall http://yeshuaincontext.com/2012/02/my-son-as-midrash/#comment-19299 John Bernall Wed, 27 Mar 2013 05:18:38 +0000 http://yeshuaincontext.com/?p=695#comment-19299 Shalom! Another connection to the Yeshua-Son-Yis'rael thing are the servant songs of Y'sha'yahu (42.1-4; 49.1-6; 50.4-9; 52.13-53.12; 61.1-4), where it is said of the Servant, who is the Prophesied Messiah: "Thou art My Servant, O Yis'rael, in whom I will be glorified." Yis'rael, meaning: "He shall reign as God". This also lends itself to an understanding of the Prophesied Messiah being called David, "the Beloved", as reflected in Matthew 3.17, where the Greek literally reads, "This is my Son, the Beloved ... etc." Shalom!
