A King from the People
Commentators overwhelmingly identify the ruler who comes "from themselves" as a prophecy of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. This promise assured the people of Israel that their ultimate King would not be a foreign ruler but one of their own, born from their lineage. For Christians, this points directly to the incarnation, where Jesus, being fully human, became one of us to save us.
