What does it mean that Christ is the key of the house of David?

Answered in 1 source

Christ as the key of the house of David signifies His authority to grant access to God's blessings and the kingdom.

The key of the house of David, mentioned in Isaiah 22:22, symbolizes Christ’s sovereign authority over the eternal kingdom and His ability to admit or deny access to it. This concept emphasizes that what Christ opens in terms of salvation and grace cannot be shut by any human effort or circumstance, just as what He shuts is irrevocable. It points to His role as the mediator between God and man, where He alone determines who enters His kingdom. Trusting in Christ as the key assures believers that their acceptance before God is secure and based solely on His grace and work.
