Genesis 3:14, 15 - So the Lord God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust All the days of your life. And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel." (NKJV) The prophet Isaiah.Was the first to prophecy about the birth of Jesus.
The first prophecy was in Genesis chapter 3, verse 15, where it says "And I Will put an Enmity between thee (Satan) & the Woman (Virgin Mary), & your seed & her Seed (Christ). This was where the Messiah was first Promised By the Father.
Here are a few Biblical thoughts:
**There are several verses that prophesy about his birth and death:
Micah 5:2+4 prophecies that the Messiah would be born in Bethlehem and would come to "be great as far as the ends of the earth." (Matthew 2:3-6) (John 7:41+42)
Genesis 49:10 says he would be born into the tribe of Judah (Matthew 1:2-16; Luke 3:23-33; Hebrews 7:14)from the family of David ( Isaiah 9:7/Psalm 132:11) (Matthew 1:1,6-16; 9:27; Acts 13:22+23) through Jesse (Isaiah 11:1/Romans 15:12) to a virgin (Isaiah 7:14 /Matthew 1:18-23; Luke 1:30-35)
Deuteronomy 18:18 tells of this 'prophet' that God would raise up. Jesus fulfilled these prophecies (John 6:14)(Acts 3:22+23)(John 7:31)
Psalm 16:10 and Isaiah 53:12 are two scriptures that tell of the death of Messiah(Matthew 17:23)(Matthew 20:17)(Mark 8:31)(Luke 9:22)(Luke 24:46)
And there were SO many others telling of events surrounding his life and how he would teach, and preach (Jeremiah 31:15/Matthew 2:16-18)(Hosea 11:1/Matthew 2:15)(Isaiah 61:1+2/Luke 4:18-21)(Psalm 78:2 /Matthew 13:11-13, 31-35)(Psalm 69:9/Matthew 21:12+13; John 2:13-17)(Isaiah 53:1/John 12:37+38; Romans 10:11+16)(Zechariah 11:12 /Matthew 26:15; 27:3-10+Mark 14:10+11)(Zechariah 13:7/Mt 26:31+56/John 16:32)...
**And several that tell of his coming 'again', in kingdom power:
Matthew 24:30 says: "And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory."(Mark 13:26)(Luke 21:27)(Revelation 1:7)(Matthew 26:64/Mark 14:62)(Acts 1:11)(1 Thessalonians 4:17)(Revelation 14:14)(1 Thessalonians 4:13-17)and at John 14:3 Jesus tells his anointed followers: "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also..."(Prophesied at Daniel 7:13+14)
Another thought:
This is just an adition to the above taken when John was speaking to the multitude who were being baptized. Matt. 3 v 11 "I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:"
I have carefully read the entire Bible. If there ever was a prophecy of the coming of Jesus, it is never mentioned in the Old Testament. Nevertheless, Burton L. Mack describes a trick that can be used to make any Old Testament book say what you want it to say. By this means, books such as Genesis and Isaiah have been made to refer to Jesus, even though that does not appear to have been the intention of the authors. Mack says in Who Wrote the New Testament that at first the study of a text may not seem to support a traditional Christian conviction, or the answer one hopes to find in The Bible. But with a little ingenuity, one can set up the comparison again with other emphases and make the answer come out right. This trick seems to come naturally when studying the Bible, and Mack sees it happen all the time in the classrooms of the School of Theology at Claremont.
Long before Mack documented this trick, the author of Matthew's Gospel did just this. He made use of an erronious mistranslation of Isaiah 7:14 in the Septuagint (an early and flawed Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures), which says that a virgin would conceive and bear a child. But that is not what Isaiah said in the original Hebrew version of his book, and the correct translation would have been "the young woman", and the young woman in question did have a child a few verses later in Isaiah. Notice that, even if the Septuagint translation had been correct, it still never suggests that Isaiah mentions the name Jesus. Jesus was never mentioned anywhere in the Book of Isaiah.
Most of the the first four books of the New Testament is about Jesus, so many of those verses are about Him. There are many verses in the Old Testament about His coming.
Verses please
He predicted Jesus coming to earth and the Jews crucifying him.
I would say it is the Book of Isaiah. It has many topics and verses about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
They did not. They, as Jews, knew that a Messiah was promised from God. But they did not predict the coming of Christ and in fact most of them did not believe He was who He said He was until after the resurrection and ascention. The Bible tells us that they were very afraid when they saw the resurrected Jesus. If you can even imagine what that was like. They had seen Him die and laid in the tomb so they were really freaked out to see Him up walking around. After the resurrection He was able to walk through solid walls and disappear at will.
Revelation 22: 20-21 states,"He who testifies to these things says, "Yes I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people. Amen." NIV version.
The bible says Jesus was filled with comassion.
his love and what he will do
If you can see the tornado
Jesus is coming = Yeshu ba (ישו בא)
All of the book of Matthew is about the life of Jesus.
The verses at Ephesians 5:21-33 show how Theocracy works - Wives are in subjection to their husbands, husbands to Jesus and Jesus to God. (Jesus Christ is the head of the Christian congregation).
