[QUOTE]Originally posted by Clyde Winters: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Nice Vidadavida *sigh*: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [qb] For the Hebrews anyone annointed with a certain oil by the right personel was called messiah. The Hebrew word מְשִׁיח only means "annointed." Who among the Hebrews were annointed to their positions? Those holding the title of king and those titled high priest. By calling Cyrus the annointed of the Eternal One, the idea is he holds his office with Israel's deity's explicit approval. Nothing associated with the concept of a savior attaches to the Hebrew word [i]mashiyahh[/i]. Hebrew has an entirely different word for "to save." [QUOTE]Originally posted by Nice Vidadavida *sigh*: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannosaurus: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Nice Vidadavida *sigh*: [qb]But yet the Jews considered Cyrus as a lord and christ[/qb][/QUOTE]Incorrect, but the Hebrews did respect him as a savior, because he gave them permission to return home to Israel from their exile in Babylonia. [/qb][/QUOTE]What is the difference between a savior and a christ? [/qb][/QUOTE][QUOTE]Originally posted by Djehuti: [qb] ^ A savior is someone who saves, or a hero. 'Christ' is derived from the Greek word [i]christos[/i] which means annointed. Cyrus was a savior to the Hebrews in that he preserved them and allowed them to return to their homes, but he was NOT considered to be their messiah of prophecy! And he definitely was not considered a "christ" figure for the reasons stated above! :o Thus, sorry to say but your religious explanations are a load of crock to say the least. [/qb][/QUOTE][/qb][/QUOTE]Maybe not but Cyrus was seen as a savior to the Jews. [/qb][/QUOTE]The al-Quran also mentions Cyrus as a savior for many people. Cyrus is recognized as a prophet of God. He is especially noted in the al-Quran as building a strong wall which kept Gog and Magog from invanding the region. . [/QB][/QUOTE]
