Bible Prophecies of Messiah written through the ancient Jewish Prophets hundreds and hundreds of years before Jesus Christ was born in Bethlehem, as found in the Old Testament (Tanakh) ..

He would be Crucified …
a torturous and agonizing death

“All My bones are out of joint …
My tongue clings to My jaws;
They pierced My hands and My feet,
They look and stare at Me.”
(Psalm 22:14, 15, 16, 17)

He would have stakes (nails) driven through His hands

“And someone will say to Him,
‘What are these wounds in your hands?’
Then He will answer,
‘Those with which I was wounded
in the house of my friends.’”
(Zechariah 13:6)

He would be mocked during His time of suffering and death

“A reproach of men and
despised of the people,
They shoot out the lip,
they shake the head, saying
‘He trusted in the Lord,
let Him rescue Him;’”
(Psalm 22:7-8)

They would cast lots for His clothes

“They divide my garments among them,
and for My garments they cast lots.”
(Psalm 22:18)

He would SUFFER terribly on the Cross

“My God, My God, why have You forsaken me?”
(Psalm 22:1 … Matthew 27:46)

With these words from the Cross, Jesus was pointing the Jewish leaders to Psalm 22 …

The Jewish leaders who were gathered around the Cross knew the Scriptures well. Psalm 22 is a detailed prophecy foretelling the death of Jesus, the Messiah, on the Cross, written a thousand years before the Cross and written centuries before this form of execution was even invented – written when the Jewish form of execution was stoning.

His side would be pierced

“Then they will look upon Me
whom they have pierced;
they will mourn for Him
as one mourns for his only son,
and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn.”
(Zechariah 12:10 – a prophecy of His Return)

The Sun would go down at noon
and darken the Earth in broad daylight

“And on that Day,” declares the Lord God,
“I will make the Sun go down at noon
and darken the Earth in broad daylight …
I will make it like the mourning for an only Son
and the end of it like a bitter day.”
(Amos 8:9,10)

He would be buried in a rich man’s grave

“He was buried like a criminal
in a rich man’s grave;” (Joseph of Arimathea)
(Isaiah 53:9)

He was innocent … without sin

“But He had done no wrong,
and He had never spoken an evil word.”
(Isaiah 53:9)

HE WOULD BE RESURRECTED WITHIN 4 DAYS
before His body would start to decompose

“For You will not leave
my soul in Sheol (Hell),
NOR will You allow
Your Holy One (Messiah)
to see corruption (decompose).”
(Psalm 16:10)  (The body starts to decompose on the 4th day)

He would be a Savior to ALL Mankind …
Thus fulfilling the Abrahamic Covenant

“I will also give You
as a light to the Gentiles,
That You should be My Salvation
to the ends of the Earth.”
(Isaiah 49:6)

He would be The Sacrifice
for all of our sins

“And He bore the sin of many …”
(Isaiah 53:12)

The Cross was part of God’s Plan …
so we might be “saved” from our sins

“Yet it was the Lord’s good plan
to bruise Him; put Him to grief,
make His soul an offering for sin …”
(Isaiah 53:10, KJV paraphrased)

He would then return to His place in Heaven, until …

“I (the LORD) will return again to My place
until they (Israel) acknowledge their offense.
Then they will seek My face;
in their affliction (the Tribulation)
they will diligently seek Me”…
(Hosea 5:15)

For the LORD to return to His place means that He had to have left His place. One requirement that must be met before He can return to Earth is for the people of Israel to “acknowledge their offense.” (Notice that the word offense is singular, not plural, and it is specific.) This means that Israel must acknowledge their rejection of the Messiah and pray, as a nation, for His return. We are told this will be fulfilled at the very end of the Tribulation.

When the Word and prophecies became flesh …

“Now when they had fulfilled
all that was written concerning Him,
they took Him down from the tree
and laid Him in a tomb.
But God raised Him from the dead.
He was seen for many days
by those who came up with Him
from Galilee to Jerusalem,
who are His witnesses to the people.”
(Acts 13:29-31)

Then He (Jesus) said to them,
“These are the words which I spoke to you
while I was still with you,
that all things must be fulfilled
which were written in the Law of Moses
and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.”
And He opened their understanding,
that they might comprehend the Scriptures.
Then He said to them,
“Thus it is written,
and thus it was necessary
for the Christ (Messiah) to suffer
and to rise from the dead the third day,
and that repentance and remission of sins
should be preached in His Name
to all nations,
beginning at Jerusalem.”  
(Luke 24:44-47)
