Although the Jews had long hoped for a messiah ("anointed one") to free them from foreign rule, this is not really stated in the Old Testament.

The first mention of Jesus as the Messiah (Greek: 'Christ') is in the New Testament. As Paul's epistles were written before the four gospels, the first mention of Jesus as the Messiah is in those epistles.

What is the first mention of the messiah coming in scripture?

The first mention of the coming of the Messiah is found in Genesis 3:14-15 "And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel."The seed of the woman is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ. Some believe seed means the whole of the human race, but it will not be the human race that destroys Satan. It will be the Lord Jesus Christ; the Messiah of Israel.
