43. 6. THE LORD IS CALLED DAVID. This is evident from the following passages:
In that day they shall serve Jehovah their God, and David their King, whom I will raise up unto them. Jer. xxx 8, 9.
Afterward shall the Children of Israel return, and seek Jehovah their God, and David their King; and shall fear Jehovah and His goodness in the latter days. Hosea iii 5.
And I will set up one Shepherd over them, and He shall feed them, even my servant David; He shall feed them and He shall be their Shepherd. And I Jehovah will be their God, and David a Prince among them. Ezek. xxxiv 23, 24.
So shall they be my people, and I will be their God. And David my servant shall be King over them and they shall have one Shepherd ... Then they shall dwell in the land ... they and their children, and their children's children, for ever ... and David shall be their Prince for ever. Moreover I will make a covenant of peace, and it shall be an everlasting covenant with them. Ezek. xxxvii 23-26.
I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. Behold, I have given Him for a witness to the peoples, a Leader and Lawgiver to the nations. Isa. lv 3, 4.
In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his rains, and I will build it as in the days of old. Amos ix 11.
The house of David shall be as God, as the angel of Jehovah before them. Zech. xii 8.
In that day shall there be a fountain opened to the house of David. Zech. xiii 1.
