Answer 1
The birth of Jesus was according to the prophecies in the Old Testament mainly Issiah . So it was very true indeed.
Answer 2
If one reads the prophecies of Isaiah as they pertain to the Messiah, one should read Isaiah's book as written in the Tanakh. The Messiah is born unto a young woman, Hebrew word is l'almah. If Isaiah's writer wanted to say virgin, he would have used the Hebrew word for virgin, bethula. The Messiah is to also end war and strife, and usher in a utopian government with world peace. None of this happened in Jesus' time. Along with other Messianic prophesies, Jesus did not fulfill any.
No. It is false.
The assumption that the Christian ascription of Jesus' redemptive qualities (i.e. He is the Christ, the truth, and the way) accords with Jewish principles or understandings of the Messiah is false. It is on account of this major issue that Jews opposed what Jesus was saying and doing, even assuming that the Gospels are accurate or historical materials.
The Jewish Messiah is to be an Earthly King, not an incarnation or union with God. As a result, a person claiming to be God himself is instantly recognized as not being the Messiah. John 5:16-18 asserts that Jews clearly believed that Jesus was articulating that he was the physical progeny of God. Additionally, John 3:16 is at fundamental odds with the Torah's prohibition on Human Sacrifice, its prohibition of blood consumption, its prohibition on cannibalism, and its prohibition on expiation for another's sins. There is no verse in the Old Testament that explains that one of the purposes of the Messiah is to die for sin at all (never mind for the sins of other people).
Jesus failed to perform requirements to be the Messiah and additionally performed actions contrary to the established Commandments. The Bible makes clear that one of the defining marks between a True Prophet and a False Prophet is that no True Prophet will ever deviate from the Law as it was established (Deuteronomy 13:1). A Messiah must also comport to this standard, since he is to be a Holy King. Lists of several of these actions continue below.
Functions of the Jewish Messiah that Jesus failed to fulfill (this list is not exhaustive):
Isaihah
JESUS was the messiah that was promised in the old testament. He was the fulfillment of old testament prophecy.
Christ is an Anglicized version of the Greek "Christos", which is the same as "Messiah" in Hebrew. The first part of the Gospels of Matthew and Luke are dedicated to proving the fulfillment of the prophecies regarding the Messiah in the OT.
The word "messiah" is used four times in the standard Christian Bible, two times in the Old Testament prophecies of Daniel and two times in the New Testament. It is the two incidences in the New Testament that identify Jesus as the Messiah. John 1:41-42 says that Christ is the Messiah. In John 4: 25-26, Jesus declares Himself to be the Messiah.
ANSWER: Yes, Christ is the Messiah who was prophesied of in the Old Testament. Scores of prophecies in the Old Testament books of prophecy were fulfilled with the arrival of Christ. Scores of other prophecies about Christ are about to be fulfilled in a few years from now when he returns. The days of Unleavened Bread commemorate the fact that Christ, our Passover, is sacrificed for us (1 Corinthians 5:7).
Really, that is an unanswerable question, because it is an innumerable amount of times that prophecies were made about the Messiah. Some were obvious and some were hidden. There is even the thought, by some, that the entirety of the "Old Testament", as some call it, was a prophecy of Messiah altogether.
There are 27 books in the Greek Scriptures (New Testament), and they continued what was started in the Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) by:**Recording fulfillment of many prophecies from the Old Testament,**Showing how to recognize Messiah when he came, and how Jesus filled this roleThey also:**Recorded Jesus' life and activities while on earth**Set up guidelines for Christian congregations to follow**Recorded the organizing of the preaching work**Explained who Jesus was and what he will do in the future.**Outlined God's purpose for the future of humanity
Jesus is the name of Our Blessed Lord. In standard usage the name "Jesus" is applied to the Son of Mary, who is also the Son of God; as distinct from "Christ," which refers to His Messianic role as the fulfillment of the ancient prophecies. A maniac is a person who exhibits extreme symptoms of wild behavior. There are at least 324 prophecies in the Old Testament concerning the Messiah. Jesus Christ fulfilled everyone of them exactly, even though which appeared contradictory. He was most definitely the Messiah, and He was most definitely not a maniac.
The Old Testament laid the foundation for the coming of Jesus Christ in the New Testament. The New Testament fulfills the prophecies and promises made in the Old Testament, showing how they are interconnected and part of the overarching narrative of God's plan for humanity. Jesus himself often referenced the Old Testament scriptures to demonstrate how they foretold his arrival and mission.
No book of the Old Testament contains any real prophecy of Jesus, and arguably none contains any unfulfilled predictions of the messiah whom some Jews still wait for. It is only when the Old Testament books are read with the intention of finding a certain message, whether that be a prediction of Jesus, or even of Muhammad, that some say they find just the right message.AnswerThere are 19 books of the Old Testament that do not contain any Messianic prophecies.LeviticusJoshuaJudgesRuth1 Samuel1 Kings2 KingsEzraNehemiahEstherEcclesiastesSong of SolomonLamentationsObadiahJonahNahumZephaniahHaggaiPredictive prophecies can be understood in several ways. Some prophecies seem to have a direct, literal fulfillment: the Messiah was to be born in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2). Not all predictions were fulfilled literally. Elijah's return was fulfilled by John the Baptist and not a literal Elijah (Matthew 11:13-15, Malachi 3:1-4). Typological interpretation shows how Old Testament events, persons, or things foreshadowed the later Christian story. Typology helps us see the New Testament person, event, or situation as the fulfillment of that which was only hinted at in the Old Testament.
Magi's visit to Jesus in Matthew's Gospel showcases the universal significance of Jesus' birth as they were non-Jewish, representing the inclusion of all nations in God's plan. This aligns with Matthew's message that Jesus is the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies and the promised Messiah for all people, not just the Jews.
From the very beginning - they only had the Old Testament at first and frequently consulted it, especially in regard to the many fulfilled prophecies concerning Jesus Christ the Messiah of Israel.
