In \u003ci\u003eThe One Who Is to Come\u003c\/i\u003e Joseph Fitzmyer contradicts that misreading, carefully tracing the emergence of messianism in Judaism to a much later date -- the second century B.C. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe One Who Is to Come\u003c\/i\u003e begins with a linguistic discussion of the term \"messiah,\" then demonstrates the gradual emergence of the idea of a future, dynasty-continuing David, before finally examining the \"anointed one\" language in the latest biblical text, Daniel 9. It also examines the use of the term in the Septuagint and extrabiblical Jewish writings, as well as the New Testament, Targums, and the Mishnah. Fitzmyer's masterful study presents a novel, biblical thesis that will appeal to scholars, students, and all who wish to investigate the complex history of messianism.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoseph A.
