| Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM+
Dear Leslie: The "holy vine of David" is the family line of David. The "Son of David" is Jesus. Jesus was the son of David by blood through his mother Mary who was of the line of David, and he was in the line of David legally through his foster father, Joseph who was also in the line of David. The "David" referred to is King David. God Bless, Footer Notes: This forum is for general questions on the faith.
