Me ia Me ias , Me ias , Mashiach , anointed, māshach , anoint.] A designation of Jesus as the Saviour of the world; the Hebrew equivalent of Christ, the Anointed, but used more frequently as a descriptive title ( the Me iah ) than as a name: from prophetic pa ages in the Hebrew Scriptures (where, except in two instances in Daniel, it is translated Anointed , often as a noun) interpreted by Jesus and by Christians as referring to him and universal in scope, but regarded by the Jews as promising a divinely sent deliverer for their own race. This belief in a coming Me iah is still held as a doctrine by many Jews; and at various periods of the Christian era impostors have a umed the name and character, and have had many adherents. The title is also applied figuratively to historical characters who have been great deliverers. Sometimes written, after the Greek of the New Testament, Me ias. We have found Me ias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ. John i. 41.
