''Expanded topic - [[The Kingship of the King Messiah]]''

From the verses of the Torah and the prophecies of the prophets, we learn that the Messiah will be a king. His kingship is the essence of his existence (to the point that the very existence of Messiah is the exaltation of his kingship and not merely a quality or title that he bears) because according to halacha, the meaning of the coming of Messiah is not only a good destiny, but a time when the eternity of the Torah and its complete fulfillment will be actualized through the restoration of kingship to Israel. His kingship will be at the height of perfection in all areas.

His influence on the divine service of the people will also be beyond measure according to his great stature, therefore the nullification of the people before him will be of the greatest degree and he will also affect even the highest souls with nullification and fear of Heaven.

The Messiah will serve as king already during the time of exile, even before the actual redemption, during the time defined as "presumed Messiah". This kingship will not be established by a court nor by a prophet and also will not be through anointing with oil. Rather, it will be through Israel accepting his kingship upon themselves and becoming his servants.
