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.
Ver. 5. I will raise to David a righteous branch.] Who shall raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof, Amo 9:11 who shall also sit upon the throne of his father David, and of his kingdom there shall be no end. Luk 1:32-33 Annon hoc probe sarcitur, &c. Is not this a good amends for that which is to befall Coniah and his posterity, put beside the kingdom? Of Christ the "righteous branch," see Isaiah 11:1; Isa 4:2 Zechariah 3:8 See Trapp on " Isa 11:1 " See Trapp on " Isa 4:2 " See Trapp on " Zec 3:8 "
