The title 'son of David' also links Jesus with humanity.


Why is it important for a christian today to remember that Jesus was a Jew?

It's always important to remember that Jesus was a Jew. There are many deceivers and heretics who twist history and God's Word and use both to lay a perverted foundation for anti-Semitism. By remembering Jesus was a Jew, we are reminded that the Jews are God's Chosen People, and that among the Jews, Jesus is God's Chosen Person, the Anointed One, the Messiah. When we recall that Jesus was a product of His heritage, the question then becomes, How can you pick and enjoy the fruit (Jesus) and then disdain and cut down the tree from which it came (the Jews)? Remembering that Jesus was a Jew is a major step in fighting the scourge of anti-Semitism.
