I have a question about this - 
 
"He will be descended from King David (Isaiah 11:1) via Solomon (1 Chronicles 22:8-10, 2 Chronicles 7:18)"
 
1 Chronicles 22:8-10 doesn't say Messiah has to be descended from Solomon, as I read it; it says "his name shall be Solomon". Do I not understand that? Maybe it's written differently in Hebrew?
 
As to 2 Chronicles 7:18 - in the next verses there is a "But if" -
 
"2Ch 7:19-22 But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments, which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them; (20) Then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have sanctified for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a byword among all nations. (21) And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and unto this house? (22) And it shall be answered, Because they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them."
Solomon's wives did turn his heart away. Wasn't the promise stated in 2Chron. 7:18 conditional?
 
Are there more verses that show that Messiah has to be descended from Solomon?
