Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root verb מָשַׁח (mashach), meaning "to anoint."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G3323 (Μεσσίας, Messias): This Greek term is a transliteration of the Hebrew מָשִׁיחַ and is used in the New Testament to refer to the Messiah. In John 1:41 (BSB), Andrew tells his brother Simon Peter, "We have found the Messiah" (which is translated as Christ). The Greek term Χριστός (Christos, Strong's G5547) is also used interchangeably with Μεσσίας to denote the anointed one, the Christ. Usage: The term מָשִׁיחַ is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe individuals who have been anointed for a special purpose, such as kings (e.g., Saul, David), priests, and prophets. It is also used in a prophetic sense to refer to the future Messiah, who is expected to bring salvation and restoration to Israel. Context: • Anointed Kings and Priests: In the Hebrew Scriptures, the anointing of kings and priests was a significant ritual, symbolizing their divine appointment and empowerment for their roles. For example, Saul is referred to as "the LORD's anointed" (1 Samuel 24:6, BSB), and David is anointed by Samuel as king over Israel (1 Samuel 16:13, BSB).
