'CHRIST' originally comes from the ancient Greek language ('CHRISTOS') and means 'The Anointed'. It is the translation of the Hebrew Word 'Messiah'. In the Old Testament the kings were called 'The Anointed of the Lord', because they had been initiated by priests who had anointed them with the holy ointment (a mixture of several oils containing certain essential oils considered holy). The followers of Jesus during His preaching days called Him by that name, because He was a descendent of King David - like the long awaited Messiah was said to be - and so He was considered to be the man anointed by God as King over the Kingdom of the Messiah. So 'Messiah' and 'CHRIST', The Anointed of the Lord, meaning 'the King that God had chosen', is the name of a position, a characterization ('The Christ', 'the king'). As Jesus (lat. IESUS, heb. JESHUAH) revealed Himself to be this Messiah, and as He was verified as such by GOD, and as He was being acknowledged as such by more and more people, the name Jesus was connected with this characterization 'CHRIST', meaning 'Jesus, the CHRIST': Jesus CHRIST (from the Conversational Dictionary, Brockhaus 1852). |
