Mashiach: Throne – Heavenlies

Hora’ah – הוראה – Teaching

“He will be loftier than Solomon, who dignity was so lofty that he is said to, ‘sit on the throne of the Lord.’ (1 Chronicles 29:23). But the King Messiah, in his all-comprehending intelligence, will be loftier than Solomon. (He will be) exceedingly above the ministering angels, because that same comprehensive intelligence will approach (God) more nearly than theirs.”
Moshe Kohen ibn Crispin, Vol. 1, pp. 97,98, cited in Driver and Neubaauer, pp. 101-103

“The fifth interpretation makes it refer to the Messiah. come hither, approach to a royal state, and eat of the bread: refers to the bread of royalty; and dip thy morsel in vinegar, refers to his sufferings; as it is said, But he was wounded because of our transgressions (Isaiah 53:5) and she sat beside the reaper, for he will be deprived of his sovereignty for a time, as it is said, For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken (Zechariah 14:2) and they reached her parched corn, means that he will be restored to his throne, as it is said, and he shall smite the land with the rod of his mouth (Isaiah 11:4).”
Midrash Rabbah Ruth, Vol 6, Freedman & Simon, pp. 61,64

“And the Holy One Blessed be He will fight for Israel and say to the Messiah, (Psalm 110:1).”
T’fillat Rabbi Shimon ben Yohai, Patai, p. 159

“As a sign of humility, the Messiah will come riding on a donkey (Zechariah 9:9). He will however, be accompanied by the clouds of heaven, (Daniel 7:13) i.e., the angels of heaven.”
Rav Saadi Gaon, Mikraoth Gedolot: Daniel Ezra, Nehemiah; A New English Translation, Rosenberg, p. 67
