### For you reward every man according to his work.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: A prophetic declaration that God will ultimately judge all individuals and provide a reward or recompense based on their earthly deeds.
*Historical context*: Theologians and historians identify this as a foundational prophecy regarding the Final Judgment. In Jewish and Christian eschatology, this principle underpins the belief in a future reckoning where divine justice is perfectly administered.
*Related to*:
### N/A
*Type*: fulfillment
*Summary*: Jesus Christ identifies himself as the fulfillment of this divine role, stating that the Son of Man will come to repay everyone according to their conduct.
*Historical context*: Recorded in [[Matt-16#v27|Matthew 16:27]] and [[Rev-22#v12|Revelation 22:12]], where Jesus explicitly adopts the phrasing of [[Ps-62#v12|Psalm 62:12]] to describe his future return and the act of universal judgment. This transitioned the concept from a general divine attribute to a specific Messianic event.
*Related to*: For you reward every man according to his work.
### They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly.
*Type*: prophecy
*Summary*: A prediction that the anointed or 'lofty' individual will be the target of a conspiracy characterized by deceit, hypocrisy, and a calculated attempt at subversion.
*Historical context*: Typologically viewed in Messianic studies as a prediction of the religious and political opposition to the Messiah, specifically the use of flattery and false testimony to secure a death sentence.
*Related to*:
### N/A
*Type*: fulfillment
*Summary*: The conspiracy against Jesus by the Sanhedrin, involving the use of false witnesses and external shows of religious piety while secretly plotting his execution.
*Historical context*: Historically realized during the Passion of Christ ([[Matt-26#v3|Matthew 26:3]]-4, 59-60). The 'blessing with the mouth' and 'cursing inwardly' is specifically exemplified by the kiss of Judas ([[Luke-22#v47|Luke 22:47]]-48) and the trial before Caiaphas, where legal processes were manipulated through 'delight in lies' (false testimony).
