Messianic Psalms - The Coming of the Lord

The Messianic Psalms are a number of psalms that foretell some aspect of the coming of the Messiah. Some only contain a verse or two that prophesy the Messiah. Others are entirely dedicated to foretelling the coming Messiah.

Although the three psalms in this lesson may have had some meaning to the writer (not all prophets understood the message the Spirit inspired them to proclaim), they are completely messianic in nature. One scholar wrote that these three psalms comprised the core of the Church's apologetic to the Jews.
