97. What Is Meant that No Man Would Prosper Upon the Throne of David and Rule Any More in Judah?

As it says, 'no man of his seed (meaning of the seed of Jehoiachin) shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah. In one very real sense, no king of the house of David regained the Kingdom of Judah, not even Jesus Christ was raised to the throne of David, though he was its rightful heir in his day. So while Jehoiachin had children and through his house was the Messiah to come, the heirship of the throne of David would not rise again in Judah by one of his seed, not even Jesus Christ. But we know that Christ will come and rule at his second coming from the New Jerusalem built by the seed of Joseph upon the Americas, the promised land of Joseph according to Ether and Moroni in Ether 13. So how is the 'sceptre departed from Judah'? And the lawgiver from between his feet? (Genesis 49:9) It is that when Shiloh come, Jesus Christ should come that the 'seed' or fatherhood of Judah was removed in that the 'Father, the God of Heaven' became the father of Christ from 'between his feet'. Jesus Christ was NOT a male descendant of the house of David in that his 'natural father' was a Jew. Only in that his 'adoptive father' was Joseph of the House of David. Further, the seed of the House of David never was Legally of Judah, only of the blood line of Judah through Boaz. Boaz himself but acted as the surrogate vicarious father of Obed; Obed being according to the Law of God, the Law of Moses, the seed and heir of the dead; Obed was the legal and rightful seed and heir of the house of Mahlon and of Elimelech and Naomi according to the Levirate Marriage of the Law of Moses as explained in Deuteronomy 25:5-10 and accepted by Boaz as per his own statments in Ruth 4:5 & 10. Even the people of Ruth's and Obed's day did but recognized Obed to be the son of the house of Naomi, Elimelech and Mahlon by their statements recorded in Ruth 4:13-17. Thus when Christ comes again, it will be as the rightful heir of the Firstborn, the Firstborn of Israel, who is Ephraim (Jeremiah 31:9). For Elimelech and his house were Ephrathites, meaning Ephraimites. And as far as the earthly right to inheritance of the covenant and priesthood of God, it is by that lineage that Christ will rule and reign upon the land of Joseph. Thus NEVER will there again be considered again the 'seed of Judah' sitting upon the throne of David, and ruling any more in Judah, for Christ will rule in the land of Joseph, as the seed of Joseph by the adoption of God's Law. And from thence will he rule all of Israel, which was the right of the 'Firstborn', even Ephriam in Israel which was usurped by the cunning of the Jews.
