Part 3: Jesse and the Stem, Rod, Branch and Root

1. Jesse

2. Stem of Jesse
3. Branch from Rod's roots (or from Jesse's roots???)
4. Rod

5. Root of Jesse

6. Future King David???

D&C 113:3 What is the rod spoken of in the first verse of the 11th chapter of Isaiah, that should come of the Stem of Jesse?

D&C 113:4 Behold, thus saith the Lord: It is a servant in the hands of Christ, who is partly a descendant of Jesse as well as of Ephraim, or of the house of Joseph, on whom there is laid much power.

"חֹטֶר" is also seen in:

Pro 14:3	In the mouth of the foolish is a rod H2415 of pride: but the lips of the wise shall preserve them.
