Meekness, as demonstrated by Christ, is not to be confused with weakness or passivity. Instead, it is a strength under control, a gentle and humble disposition that reflects a deep trust in God. Biblical Foundation The concept of meekness is deeply rooted in Scripture, and Christ Himself is the ultimate exemplar of this virtue. In the Beatitudes, Jesus declares, "Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth" (<a href="/matthew/5-5.htm">Matthew 5:5</a>). This statement underscores the value and reward of meekness in the kingdom of God. It is a quality that is both commended and promised a future inheritance. Christ's Example of Meekness Throughout the Gospels, Jesus exemplifies meekness in His interactions with others. In <a href="/matthew/11-29.htm">Matthew 11:29</a>, He invites His followers to "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls" . Here, Jesus identifies Himself as gentle and humble, offering rest to those who come to Him. His meekness is not only a personal attribute but also a source of comfort and peace for His followers. In His earthly ministry, Jesus consistently demonstrated meekness in His dealings with both friends and adversaries. When confronted with hostility, He often responded with calmness and restraint. For instance, during His arrest, Jesus admonished Peter, saying, "Put your sword back in its place. For all who draw the sword will die by the sword" (<a href="/matthew/26-52.htm">Matthew 26:52</a>). Despite having the power to call upon legions of angels, Jesus chose the path of submission to the Father's will, embodying meekness even in the face of suffering. Meekness in Prophecy The Old Testament prophesied the meekness of the Messiah. In <a href="/zechariah/9-9.htm">Zechariah 9:9</a>, it is written, "Rejoice greatly, O Daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O Daughter of Jerusalem! See, your King comes to you, righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey" . This prophecy was fulfilled in the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem, where He chose to enter the city not as a conquering king on a warhorse, but as a humble servant on a donkey. Theological Implications The meekness of Christ has profound theological implications. It reveals the nature of God's kingdom, which is characterized by humility and service rather than power and domination. Christ's meekness is a model for believers, calling them to emulate His gentle and humble spirit in their own lives. The Apostle Paul exhorts Christians to "Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near" (<a href="/philippians/4-5.htm">Philippians 4:5</a>), encouraging them to reflect the character of Christ in their interactions with others. Practical Application For believers, the meekness of Christ serves as both an example and a challenge. It calls for a life of humility, patience, and trust in God's sovereignty. Meekness involves a willingness to submit to God's will, even in difficult circumstances, and to respond to others with grace and gentleness. It is a fruit of the Spirit, as outlined in <a href="/galatians/5-23.htm">Galatians 5:23</a>, and a mark of true discipleship. In summary, the meekness of Christ is a defining characteristic of His earthly ministry and a vital aspect of His divine nature. It is a quality that believers are called to cultivate, reflecting the heart of Christ in a world that often values power and assertiveness.<a name="ttt" id="ttt"></a><div class="vheading2">Torrey's Topical Textbook</div><a href="/isaiah/53-7.htm">Isaiah 53:7</a> He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he opens not his mouth.
