Davidic

But considerable doubt attaches to the whole group of so-called Davidic compositions in the last book of the psalter (p. 138-144), from their place, and from the fact that there are just seven of them, as well as in some cases from their style and character.

The Life of David As Reflected in His Psalms Alexander Maclaren 1868

Partly, I read Dumuzi as weaker because the image I get of him is not of Inanna returning to find him set up as a ruler in her place; rather he's lazing about, playing his music (like the Davidic/Virgilian shepherd-boy-musician he is) and generally not fulfilling his responsibility of grief as her consort and thereby inferior (unlike the sons she doesn't sic the demons on).

It seems to me that, as diverse as ideas about "the Messiah" seem to have been in the first century, the expectation regarding a Davidic anointed one was essentially about the restoration of the Davidic kingship.

Of course certain imaginative ancient Jews appropriated the imagery that had for centuries been associated with King David and the Davidic line of kings about a messiah to fabricate a special-effects fable about a Jew known as Jesus of Nazareth, featuring such special effects as nature miracles and extraordinary healings and Jesus 'resurrection from the dead.

Hey, what if it can be shown that the destruction of Jerusalem and the end of the Davidic dynasty dominated Jewish thinking for six centuries?
