"The LORD said unto my Lord." Revelation 22:16: "I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star." Jesus said he is the root and the offspring of David. Jesus was both the root and the offspring, he was both the LORD , capital L, capital O, capital R, capital D, who created Adam from whom David descended, and he was Daivd's Lord, the man who was born at Bethlehem, that descended from David.

Jesus was before David, Jesus also comes from the genealogy of David. Jesus is God.

Think about it.

It means that David came from His covenant with the Israeli people (the root of David), and he was born into the lineage of David, as a man (offspring of David).

Jesus, being one manifestation of the triune God, was active in the creation of the world as we know it. In this sense, He is the root of all things, including king David.
He can also be considered the offspring of David, as both his earthly mother and her husband were physically decended from the ancestry of king David.

David is an ancient ancestor of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ came from the same family line (genealogical line)
that David did.

By root, He meant that He is the center of all life. It's like saying that He is the root of the tree of life, and we are all the branches and leaves that grow from Him. Without Him, we die. If you cut off a branch or a leaf, it falls to the ground and dies. Therefore, you must stay connected and firmly rooted in Jesus and you will have life.
