Spoke 9
Establishment of the Kingdom
Isaiah 9  Psalm 9 1 Samuel
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall
be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting
Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall
be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom,
to order it, and to establish it with
judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever.
The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
Isaiah 9 (vs. 5f)
And the LORD hath done to him, as he spake by me: for the LORD hath rent
the kingdom out of thine hand, and given it to thy neighbour, even
to David:
Book 9 (I Samuel 28.17)
The Ninth Book (I Samuel), contains the first occurrence of the set
(David, Kingdom) [Verify]. It corresponds to the verse from Isaiah 9 above which is the
only verse in all Isaiah to contain these words. The strong thematic correlation between Isaiah 9 and I Samuel
follows the pattern established in Psalm 9, The
Throne of Judgment:
| Thematic Link: The Throne of Judgment | | Isaiah 9I Samuel |
There also is a KeyLink between Isaiah 9 and I Samuel, based on the fundamental theme of the establishment
of God's Kingdom. Searching the entire KJV for all verses containing the set
(Establish*, Kingdom, Lord, Ever*) [Verify] yields exactly two verses:
| Isaiah 9 |
I Samuel 13.13 |
|---|
| Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon
the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish
it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal
of the LORD of hosts will perform this. |
And Samuel said to Saul, Thou hast done foolishly: thou hast not kept the commandment of
the LORD thy God, which he commanded thee: for
now would the LORD have established
thy kingdom upon Israel for ever. |
We have a KeyLink:
| KeyLink: The Establisment of the Lord's Kingdom | | Isaiah 9I Samuel |
This integrates with the course of World History and the coronation of Chalrlemagne by Pope Leo III
at the opening of the Ninth Century. The thematic link between Isaiah 9 and Psalm 9 can be seen by searching for the
set (Throne, Judgment, Lord, Ever) [Verify], which selects only four verses:
| Isaiah 9 |
Psalm 9 |
|---|
| Of the increase of his government and peace there shall
be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it,
and to establish it with
judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever.
The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. |
But the LORD shall endure for ever: he hath prepared
his throne for
judgment. And he shall judge the world in righteousness, he shall minister judgment
to the people in uprightness. |
These links are associated
with the preparation and establishment of the Throne of the Kingdom, and the idea of Judgment.
The Kingdom and Kingship proper are associated with the Number 10 (cf. Psalm 10). This integrates
with the inauguration of the Holy Roman Empire in the Tenth Century.
