QUOTE (dennis mann @ May 22 2008, 08:20 AM)

why didn't the OT put a Name (Jesus of Nazereth) on the Prophecied Messiah?
Isaiah named Cyrus,,,,,,,,150 years before Cyrus was born!
will Jesus give me a whipping for this post?
His name was deliberately kept a secret, or defined, as used here, 'something which appears supernatural';
'wonderful'.
Yet, the Angel of the Lord (Jesus before being born in the flesh) identified Himself as
'wonderful' ...
"And Manoah said unto the Angel of the Lord, What [is] thy name, that when thy sayings come to pass we may do thee honour?
And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, seeing it [is] secret?" -Judges 13:17-18
Strong's H6381 - pil'iy -
secret,
wonderful , incomprehensible, extraordinary
Yet, the Angel of the Lord did identify Himself as '
wonderful' ...
"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and
his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." -Isaiah 9:6
