a common phrase of the gospels is "one taken and the other left".  I was thinking how this applies to taken away in judgement, contrary to how rapture enthusiasts have missaplied this verse supposedly.

One scape goat got taken away (in death?) and the other left to run into the wilderness.

One bird for the cleasesing of leprosy is killed over a clay bowl and cedar and a scarlet thread and hysop were diped in the blood and water.

So, if there were two messiahs, Jesus and David the prince, one would be like the killed goat and bird, (Jesus the Messiah) and the other would be the messiah, small "m" a fully human non divine but the vice regent or understudy of Jesus, mabye with his same initials but a Levite?

Actually there were several "Christs" or anointed men in the Old Testament, and one of them, Cyrus, was a gentile.  These men were foreshadowings of the real man from heaven, the Lord Yeshua.

None of them were Yeshua -- God come in the flesh.  The clay bowl represents his body, the cedar the cross, the scarlet thread his blood, and the hyssop was used for cleansing.  Only the blood of God that was shed on the cross in his Son can wash away our sins.
