The Davidic line (also referred to as the House of David) (known in Hebrew as ''Malkhut Beit David'' (מלכות בית דוד) – "Kingdom of the House of David") refers to the tracing of lineage to the King David referred to in the Hebrew Bible and in the New Testament. The term "House of David" referring to the Davidic dynasty appears many times in the Bible.〔 Examples can be found in: , ,,,, , ,,,,, , ,, , , etc.〕 ==History== Upon being chosen and becoming king, the custom in the times of the Tanakh was to be anointed with Holy Oil poured on the head. In David's case, this was done by the prophet Samuel: In Hebrew, the anointing is called ''meshicha'' (meaning "pouring") and a king (''melekh'' or ''melech'' in Hebrew) is referred to as a ''Moshiach'' or Messiah or a ''Melech HaMashiach'' meaning "the anointed king". The procedure of anointment, in David's case, is said to symbolize the descent of God's holiness (''kedusha'') upon the king and as a sign of a bond never to be broken. The monarchy was vouchsafed to the House of David by God in the Book of Samuel: Initially, David was king over the Tribe of Judah only and ruled from Hebron, but after seven years the other Israelite tribes chose him to be their king as well: As well as in the Book of Chronicles: All subsequent kings in both the ancient first united Kingdom of Israel and the later Kingdom of Judah claimed direct descent from King David to validate their claim to the throne in order to rule over the Israelite tribes. After the death of King Solomon son of David, the ten northern tribes of the Kingdom of Israel rejected the Davidic line, refusing to accept Rehoboam son of Solomon, and instead chose as king Jeroboam and formed the northern Kingdom of Israel. This kingdom was eventually conquered by Assyria who exiled them, to disappear from history as The Ten Lost Tribes. center 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Davidic line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
