Shiloh (Genesis 49:10): This is a remarkable prophecy about the coming of the Messiah, who will descend from the tribe of Judah, and rule over Israel and the nations. While there have been many suggested translations for Shiloh, the one I like best is "to be quiet, to enjoy rest and security." I like the way one rabbi translated Shiloh as "final tranquility." He is the One who can give rest to the weary and heavy-laden. Ultimately, He will bring tranquility to the entire world.

Ruler (Micah 5:2), Prince (Daniel 9:25), King (Jeremiah 23:5): From His throne in Jerusalem, Messiah is destined to rule over Israel, which will be the head of the nations. He will be a good and fair ruler, an exceedingly capable ruler, a firm, righteous and enlightened ruler. There have been thousands of rulers over humanity, but Yeshua will be the best ruler that humanity has ever experienced! His enlightened administration will end all war and injustice, heal the world's wounds, extend peace and righteousness to the farthest reaches of the Earth, and bring the knowledge of God and salvation to all of humanity.

Arm Of The Lord (Isaiah 53:1): Just as a man's arm does his work for Him, so the Son of God is the Father's Executor. The Father plans and commands, and the Son obeys and carries out His Father's will, counsel and purposes. It is through Messiah that the universe came into being. It is through the Messiah, that the great work of atonement and salvation was accomplished.

Son Of God: In both Psalm 2:12 and Proverbs 30:4, God tells us that He has a Son. That does not mean that God created Him, or that He is younger than God - exactly the opposite! Just as a son shares the same nature as his father, so Yeshua shares the very same nature as His Father. The Son of God is fully divine, complete deity, eternal, uncreated, with life and being within Himself, sharing all the attributes of God!

Names For The Spirit of God That Are Found In The Tenach (Old Testament)

Holy Spirit (Psalm 51:11): God has a Spirit - His non-corporeal, immaterial essence, who pervades the entire universe, but indwells certain places and things more than others. His Spirit is holy - infinitely pure, separate from evil, and unique.

Spirit Of God (Genesis 1:2): The Spirit of God has the attributes of a Person; He has consciousness, mind, emotion and will.

The Spirit of the Lord God (Isaiah 61:1): the immaterial essence and mind of the One who is Master of all things, and the Source of being.

In Isaiah 11:2, the Spirit of God, who given a sevenfold description, is predicted to rest on the Messiah. From the Spirit of the Lord spreads six branches, which corresponds to the seven branched menorah in the Temple, the seven lamps of fire burning before the throne of God in heaven (see Revelation 4:5), and the seven eyes on the Lamb (see Revelation 5:6). These sevenfold things tell us that Messiah Yeshua has the fulness of God's Spirit abiding on Him. The Messiah, who is a descendant of David, will be empowered for His task of ruling and reigning over Israel by more than merely human abilities. Everything about His leadership will testify to a supernatural empowerment. He will be anointed by more than oil, but by the reality which oil pictures, the fullness of the Spirit of God.

The Spirit Of The LORD: He is anointed by God Himself. The whole creative Spirit of God rests on Him. He fullness of God rests on Him in bodily form. This is the center of this description. From it flow six other aspects:

The Spirit Of Wisdom: Wisdom is more than just knowledge, but how to wisely apply knowledge to accomplish the desired goals. There are many knowledgeable fools.

The Spirit Of Understanding: The Messiah will be full of understanding, intelligence and skill in any art or learning. He is quick to understand.

The Spirit Of Counsel: gives the best advice and counsel. He can always and in every situation discern what is best and give good counsel and advice. He will be able to perceive things correctly and will be able to carry out correct decisions. He always forms the right conclusions. He has no need to surround Himself with advisors and counselors. He counsels all that come to Him for wisdom. This term "counsel" is used to execute a plan or purpose, and it is used of the counsel or purpose of God. King Messiah helps form and then puts into action the counsels, plans and purposes of God.

He is a Wonderful Counselor. He gives wonderful, miraculous advice, unfailing in the depths of it wisdom. He is the supreme source of counsel for the Jewish nation. We ought to listen very carefully to everything that He says. It is more important, more beneficial, than what anyone else has said. You can listen to the foolishness of human wisdom, or the supernatural wisdom of the Messiah.

The Spirit of Strength: He has the ability to carry out all His counsels with power. He will have God's true might and power about Him, power so great that it can absorb all the evil which can be hurled at it. He will be empowered to reign justly and righteously over Israel and all the nations of the world. This one individual is more powerful than all the armies of the world put together.

The Spirit of Knowledge: intelligence, understanding, wisdom. He is more knowledgeable than Solomon, who knew about all manner of earthly things, animals, creatures, they way things worked. Someone wiser than Solomon will be with us. Especially the knowledge of God, personal intimate knowledge that comes from experiencing God. He helps us to know God personally and intimately.

The Spirit of the fear of the Lord. He is dominated by the respect and awe of God. He takes everything connected with God seriously and with the utmost respect. The Lord is at the very center of His life. Everything that He does centers around God.
