The son of the devil is the messiah.
The title '''Messiah''' ([[Hebrew]] ''[[Moshiach|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 [[Septuagint|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]].
