The Branch is Jesus Christ
All commentators unanimously identify the 'Branch of righteousness' as a direct prophecy of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Scholars like John Gill and John Calvin point out that even ancient Jewish interpreters understood this figure to be the Messiah. This promise, echoing Jeremiah 23, points to the true King emerging from the seemingly dead royal line of David.
