The people of Israel believed that God would send them a Redeemer. For centuries they waited for him in constant prayer and ardent expectation, basing their hopes on the Old Testament prophecies. However, opinions differed as to the nature and activity of this awaited Redeemer. Many believed that a king from the descendants of David would come and establish an empire with Jerusalem as its capital. This king was called the Christ, meaning the one who received the royal anointing. Others waited for a prophet like Moses to come and liberate them from foreign domination. Still, others expected that the great prophet Elijah himself would come to call the people to repentance, after which God I would come to judge the world with fire.
