THE person God chose above all others — the Messiah, the Christ
lightbulbMessiah in Hebrew, Christ in Greek — both mean 'God's chosen King'
The title 'Anointed One' is the literal meaning of both 'Messiah' (Hebrew) and 'Christ' (Greek). While many people in the OT were anointed for specific roles, this title with a capital A refers to the one God promised would come as the ultimate King, Priest, and Prophet. Daniel prophesied about Him (Daniel 9:25-26). Jesus fulfilled the role — anointed not with oil but with the Holy Spirit at His baptism.
