What does the Bible say about Jesus as the branch?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible refers to Jesus as the branch in Isaiah 11:1, indicating His lineage from Jesse and His divine role.

In Isaiah 11:1-2, the text speaks of Christ as a 'rod out of the stem of Jesse' and as a 'branch that shall grow out of his roots.' This passage underscores Jesus' fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy, denoting His humble beginnings as a descendant of David while simultaneously affirming His divine nature. The Apostle Paul in Romans 15:12 explicitly connects this scripture to Christ, declaring that He shall reign over the Gentiles.
