Week 21: This week, we will read about the promise of the new King, the Messiah. However, the plot takes an unexpected turn as the character of the Anointed One is revealed. Through the Servant Songs in the Book of Isaiah, we see a suffering servant king, perhaps not what we imagine when we first think of royalty. We will also meet Malchizedek, a priest king who mirrors the coming Messiah. While these passages display the hope of the Hebrew people for an earthly king, the prophecies foreshadow a revolutionary reign to come.
About this Plan
In part two of the Love This Book plan, we look at the rise of prophets following the fall of David and Solomon. Beginning with Elijah, we'll explore what it looked like to be called for the work of God and how the prophets responded to society's betrayal of Him. We will then look forward to the hope of a new King and how the prophecies foreshadowed the revolutionary reign to come.
