The title Messiah (Hebrew mashiach, 'anointed') literally applies to anyone annointed by God. It was used to refer to the kings of Israel as well as the High Priest. The references to The Messiah (The Anointed) talk of a single figure who will establish God's kingdom for all time. This term in Greek as The Christ in the Greek translation of the Old Testament that was in common use by the time of Jesus became the term used to describe Jesus himself, revealed as the Messiah in the New Testament.
