Who is the King over all the earth in this prophecy?
The prophecy identifies Jehovah the Christ as King over all the earth. The Old Testament Lord is Jehovah, and the New Testament reveals Jehovah as Christ, the I AM who said before Abraham was, I AM. He shall reign as King over all the earth.
Les explains that the Lord in the Old Testament is Jehovah, and Jehovah in the New Testament is Christ. He points to John's Gospel where Christ said, 'Before Abraham was, I AM,' identifying Himself as the Old Testament Jehovah. Therefore, the prophecy declares that Jehovah the Christ shall be King over all the earth. Les notes this is prophecy that hasn't happened yet, but it's going to happen. He also connects this to Christ's return to stand on the Mount of Olives.
And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.
