Answer

The Old Testament Prophets are important because they tell us of the geneology of Jesus Christ, and they reveal His identity as the Messiah. The prophecies of the Old Testament Scriptures were fulfilled with the Coming of Jesus Christ as the Annointed One of God. Some examples of these prophecies are: Daniel 9:25 was fulfilled in Luke 2:1-3. Isaiah 7:14 was fulfilled in Matthew 1:18. Psalms 2:7 was fulfilled in Matthew 17:5. Zechariah 9:9 was fulfilled in Matthew 21:7-11. Psalms 22:18 was fulfilled in Matthew 27:35. And many others.
