How do we know Christ fulfills the role of the blessed man?
Answered in 1 source
Christ embodies the blessed man by perfectly fearing the Lord and delighting in His commandments.
Christ is the ultimate fulfillment of the blessed man described in Psalm 112. He exemplifies perfect obedience to God's commands and embodies the fear of the Lord without sin. As the Holy One, He perfectly represents His people before God. Through His atoning sacrifice and righteous works, He makes it possible for believers to be deemed righteous and blessed. Christ’s preeminence over all creation shows that in Him, believers can truly reflect the traits of the blessed man. His work not only affirms the blessings spoken of in the psalm but also provides the basis for our own righteousness and standing before God.
