The messianic king, as it is written: “The spirit of the Lord will rest upon him, a spirit of wisdom and understanding,” (Isaiah 11:2); these are two; “a spirit of counsel and valor” (Isaiah 11:2); that is four; “a spirit of knowledge and fear of the Lord” (Isaiah 11:2); that is six.

“Youths in whom there was no blemish, [and handsome] and skillful in all wisdom, [knowledgeable and perceptive and had the strength to stand in the king's palace…]” (Daniel 1:4).
