Best Answer

Christians believe that Jesus is the Messiah. Matthew says that Jesus is descended from David's son Solomon. Luke says that Jesus is descended from David's son Nathan.

Jewish AnswerThe word 'messiah' is the anglicisation of the Hebrew 'moshiach'. The word moshiach translates to 'anointed'. The title of moshiach was given to any person who was appropriately anointed with oil as part of their initiation to their service of HaShem. We have had many moshiachim (pl) in the form of kings, priests, prophets, and judges.

This being said, there is a prophecy of a future moshiach. According to the Tanach (Jewish Bible), hamoshiach has to be a descendant of King Solomon. All of King David's other sons were disqualified from being kings. To date, hamoshiach has not been born.
