Best Answer

No, although there are several prophecies that Christians refer to as mentioning him indirectly.

- Jesus Christ is not mentioned specificaly but one title has 'the suffering servent' (At the end of Jesus' life he suffered on a cross). Its well worth reading Isiah in The Bible, If you dont want to read it all just look at Isiah chapter 52 verse 13 to Chapter 53 verse 12 (this is really not that big and can be read in 30 seconds!)

A list of some verses (sentences) in the bible which mentions a savior (Messiah) AKA J.C.

Isiah 9:1-2, 52:13-53:12

Psalm 16:10, 110:4, 132:11

There are other verses but its best you check somewhere which has the whole list.

ANSWER

The word Christ in the English Bible is the same as Messiah in the Hebrew Bible.

The O.T. predicted a Messiah (or a Christ) would come into the world to save sinners. No human knew who that messiah would be. From the bible (N.T.) we can compare Jesus' life with what was predicted in the O.T. about the messiah and conclude that Jesus is the messiah or the Christ, hence the name He is known by, Jesus Christ or Jesus the Christ.

No. The Old Testament scriptures had been written before the time of Jesus. However, some who hope to find evidence to support the New Testament claim to find obscure references to Jesus in the Book of Isaiah and elsewhere.

What is the Old Testament saying about Christ being God?

In the Old Testament, there are prophecies that point to the coming of a divine Messiah who would be God in human form. For example, in Isaiah 9:6 it says, "For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." This verse suggests that the Messiah would be seen as God himself.
