Concise Bible Dictionary
:
A title of
the
Lord
Jesus
, which He will
bear
in connection with
Israel
in the future (
Isa. 4:2
2
In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth shall be excellent and comely for them that are escaped of Israel. (Isaiah 4:2)
;
Jer. 23:5; 33:15
5
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. (Jeremiah 23:5)
15
In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. (Jeremiah 33:15)
;
Zech. 3:8
8
Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH. (Zechariah 3:8)
;
Zech. 6:12-13
12
And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the Lord:
13
Even he shall build the temple of the Lord; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both. (Zechariah 6:12‑13)
). In two of the passages the words “unto
David
” are added, which coincides with the Lord Jesus being the “offspring” (which is a similar word to “branch”) as well as the “root” of David. He will be a “righteous Branch and a King.” He will “build [or advance in honor]
the temple
of
Jehovah
; and he shall bear the
glory
, and shall sit and rule upon his
throne
; and he shall be a
priest
upon his throne: and the counsel of
peace
shall be between them both” (Compare Psa. 85 and 87). It is a description of the Lord Jesus in the
millennium
.
