A name in the middle of the night... And now a song... and an identity...

But one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals." - Revelation 5:5

Lion of the tribe of Judah: Revelation 5:5 identifies Jesus as the "Lion of the tribe of Judah," fulfilling Genesis 49:9-10, symbolizing kingship, power, and victory.

Root of David: Jesus is called the "Root of David," linking Him to David's lineage and fulfilling Isaiah 11:10, confirming His messianic role.

Opening the Scroll: Jesus is the only one worthy to open the scroll with seven seals, representing God's divine plan for judgment and redemption.

Authority over all Nations: Romans 15:12 emphasizes that Jesus' reign extends to all nations, not just Israel.

Lion and Lamb: Jesus is both the powerful, conquering King (Lion) and the sacrificial Savior (Lamb), achieving victory through humility and sacrifice.


David ben Judah

Amen
