Below from the King James        version of the Holy Bible.
Look at the below in totality! The odds against the        below being fulfilled by the only person who claimed to        be the Son of God, and who died on a "tree" on        Calvary, and who rose the 3rd day are astronomical! In        totality--these are no longer "vague"!         Now remember, that all these were written hundreds of        years before the birth of Christ and were        documented.  Isaiah & Micah wrote their prophecies below about        700 years before Christ... Zechariah wrote about 500 years before Christ. The Psalms were written over 1000 years before Christ.

It is still under        construction....Many more will be added.

 

Zechariah 13:6                written: 487 BC (Before Christ)

"And one shall                say unto him, What are these wounds in thine                hands?  Then he shall answer, Those with                which I was wounded in the house of my                friends."

(Proverbs 30:4)

"Who hath ascended up into heaven or        descended?  Who hath gathered the wind in His        fists?  Who hath bound the waters in a garment? Who        hath established all the ends of the Earth? What is His        name, and what is His son's name, if thou canst        tell?"

Luke 3:34 "The son of                        Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of                        Abraham, the son of Terah, the son of                        Nahor."

the virgin birth, and his name...         Isaiah 7:14 written: 758 BC (Before Christ) Isaiah 7:14 "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.  Word "Immanuel" means: God with us. In the Old Testament it occurs only in Isaiah. 7:14 and 8:8.

Isaiah 8:8 written: 758 BC (Before Christ) "And he shall pass through Judah; he shall overflow and go over, he shall reach even to the neck; and the stretching out of his wings shall fill the breadth of thy land, O Immanuel."

         his place of birth...         Micah 5:2 written: 710 BC (Before Christ)         "But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out        of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have        been from of old, from everlasting."  

What year this occurred                        remains uncertain.  Astronomers do                        know, however, that in June, 2 B.C. a                        very rare event occurred in the western                        skies (in relation to the Magi).                         Two of the brightest stars emerged in the                        sky.  Venus came in front of                        Jupiter.  A June birth would also                        fit with the Gospels, as shepherds would                        be in the fields in June, but not in the                        late fall or winter months.

 

Jeremiah 31:15 "This is what the Lord says:                'A voice is heard in Ramah, mourning and great weeping,                Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be                comforted, because her children are no more.'"

Matthew 2:16 "When                        Herod realized that he had been outwitted                        by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave                        orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem                        and its vicinity who were two years old                        and under, in accordance with the time he                        had learned from the Magi."

                Hoseah 11:1 "When Israel was a child, I                loved him,

and out of Egypt I                called my son."

Speaking                                about Jesus/Yeshua: Luke                                3:33 "The son of Amminadab,                                the son of Ram, the son of                                Hezron, the son of Perez, the son                                of Judah."

Jesus is born of the House of David (Jesse is                the                 father of David)...                 Isaiah 11:1 & 11:10 written: 713 BC (Before Christ)                 "And there shall come forth a rod out of the                stem                 of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his                 roots:"

                "And in that day there shall stand for an                ensign of                 the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and                his                 rest shall be glorious."
                Isaiah 28:16 written: 712 BC (Before Christ) Therefore thus saith the LORD GOD,

Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a

tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure

foundation: he that believeth shall not make

haste.
                Isaiah 53:2 written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "For he shall grow up before him as a tender                plant,                 and as a root out of dry ground: he hath no form                nor                 comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is                no                 beauty that we should desire him."
John the Baptist prepares the way...                 Isaiah 40:3 written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "The voice of him that crieth in the                wilderness,                 Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in                 the desert a highway for our God."

 

Isaiah 11:2 written:                712 BC (Before                Christ)"The                Spirit of the Lord will

rest on him--the                Spirit of wisdom and of understanding,

the Spirit of counsel                and of power, the Spirit of knowledge

and of the fear of                the Lord."  

Jesus Comes from Galilee and teaches in Caparnum Isaiah 9:1-2 written: 712 BC (Before Christ) "Nevertheless, the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations.  The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined." Matthew 4:12-16 "Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee; And leaving Nazareth he came and dwelt in  to Galilee. Leaving Nazareth, he went and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zebulon and Nephthalim: That it might be fuslfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, The land of Zabulon and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles; The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up."

Luke 2:52 "And Jesus                        grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor                        with God and men."

                 

Jesus                        Teaching in Capurnum:                                        

¹²                         When Jesus heard that John had been put                        in prison, he went to Galilee. ¹³                         But instead of staying in Nazareth, Jesus                        moved to Capernaum. This town was beside                        Lake Galilee in the territory of Zebulun                        and Naphtali. ¹⁴                         So God's promise came true, just as the                        prophet Isaiah had said,

 

¹⁵                         "Listen, lands of Zebulun  and                        Naphtali,                         lands along the road to the sea and east                         of the Jordan! Listen Galilee,                         land of the Gentiles!                         ¹⁶ Although your people                         live in darkness,  they will                        see a bright light. Although they live                         in the shadow of death, a light                        will shine   on them." ¹⁷                         Then Jesus started preaching, "Turn                        back to God! The kingdom of heaven will                        soon be here."
Jesus Fulfills the Prophecy of the Tzit-Tzit "But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings," Malachi 4:2
According to Jewish sages and tradition, this Sun of Righteousness referred to in Malachi's prophecy was understood to be the Messiah, who would have the power to heal who ever touched the tzit-tzit (fringes) on his garment.  One of the best known miracles of healing that Jesus performed was the occasion when a woman who had suffered from a hemorrhage for twelve years came up behind him and touched the hem of his garment. Both Matthew and Mark tell us about this incident below. Mark further tells us, that wherever the Lord went whomever merely touched the border of his garment "were made whole".  

Matthew 9:20-22 20 And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: 21 For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. 22 But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

In Jesus' day, Jewish men wore a simple tunic both at home and at work. When appearing in public, they would cover their tunic with a large rectangular cloth which draped over the shoulder and fell to the ankles. This cloth was called a tallit and served as protection from cold and rain. Hanging from the end of each of its four corners (wings) was a tzitzit in obedience to the biblical command. The hem of this garment is actually made with fringes, or tassels (called tzitziyot, in Hebrew). These were required to be on the four corners of all clothing of Jewish men, in accordance with God's instruction. These tassels were to remind each Jewish man of his responsibility to fulfill God's commandments in Deuteronomy 22 :12 and Num.15:37-40. In fact, these tassels are tied into 613 knots to constantly remind Jewish men of the 613 laws of Moses, of which there are 365 prohibitions (The "thou shalt not" laws), and 248 affirmations (the "thou shall" laws). The knots also correspond with the ineffable name of God, the unspoken yod-hey-vav-hey, Yahweh.  

Matthew 4:12-16                        "Jesus...returned to Galilee.                        Leaving Nazareth, he went and lived in                        Capernaum, which was by the lake in the                        area of Zebulun and Naphtali--to fulfill                        what was said through the prophet Isaiah:                        Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the                        way to the sea, along the Jordan, Galilee                        of the Gentiles--The people living in                        darkness have seen a great light; on                        those living in the land of the shadow of                        death a light has dawned."

Daniel predicts below the                        exact timetable that pinpoints the very                        day (69 weeks) that Jesus rode into                        Jerusalem (Psalm Sunday) on a colt. He                        said it would be exactly 69 sabbatical                        years from the edict permitting the                        Israelites to return from their Babylon                        exile to rebuild Jerusalem and the temple                        until the Messiah would appear as their                        Prince.  

Zechariah 9:9 - written: 520 BC (Before Christ)                 "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout,                O                 daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh                 unto thee: he is just, and having salvation;                 lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt                 the foal of an ass."

 

John 12:13-15 [they] Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord. And jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written, Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.

 

This edict to                                                     rebuild Jerusalem was issued in 444                        BC by Artaxerxes Longimanus of Persia.                        Exactly 173,880 days later Jesus rode                        into Jerusalem on a donkey. This was the                        first time Jesus allowed Himself to be                        publicly proclaimed as the Messiah and                        King.

Daniel 9:25:                         Know, therefore and understand, that from                        the going forth of the                        commandment to restore and to build                        Jerusalem unto the                        Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks,                        and threescore and two                        weeks: the street shall be built again,                        and the wall, even in troublous                        times.  

Matthew 21:2-3 2 saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Loose them and bring them to Me. 3 "And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, `The Lord has need of them,' and immediately he will send them."

Daniel                also says below that two startling historical                things would follow Messiah's appearance. First,                Messiah would be cut off. Second, the city of                Jerusalem and the temple would be destroyed                shortly thereafter.

Daniel                9:26                 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah                be cut off, but not for himself: and the people                of the prince that shall come shall destroy the                city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall                be with a flood, and unto the end of the war                desolations are determined. 

 

Here                         Daniel talks of the Messiah being killed.  He also                         says the same thing that Jesus said - that Jerusalem                         would be shortly destroyed.  It happened in 70                         A.D. and Josephus and others spoke of the "flood"                         of Jewish blood in the streets of Jerusalem...

What                about the 70th Week Daniel Spoke of? Many Evangelicals and other Christians and Christian book writers are also deluded to think the 70th week of Daniel went on hold for 2000 years.  When it fact it happened just like clockwork and ended when Stephen was stoned by the Jews at the end of the 70th week (3.5 yrs after Christ's crucifixion).  Immediately the 70th week ended, and the Gospel then went to the Gentiles. You will recall also, that Paul was "recruited" at the end of this 7 years to minister to the Gentiles. His name was changed from the Jewish Saul to the Gentile Paul (Romans 11:13) which signified the new focus. Also, at this time God gave Peter a vision indicating it was now time to preach to the Gentiles (Acts 10:1-28)

This prophesy refers to                        weeks of years, or 483 biblical years.                        Beginning with the exact day on which                        Persian King Artaxerxes gave the decree                        to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem (March 14, 445), exactly 173,880 days                        later--Palm Sunday, April 6, 32 A.D. --Christ rode into Jerusalem the week                        before he was 'cut off' (crucified). This                        is the precise number of days spanning                        483 biblical years, which were then                        measured as 12 months of 30 days each.

Judas gives up Jesus to Temple authorities                after                 eating bread with Jesus                 Psalm 41:9 written: 1023 BC (Before Christ)                 "Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I                trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his                heel                 against me."
Judas gives up Jesus to Temple authorities for                30                 pieces of silver...                 Zechariah 11:12 written: 487 BC (Before Christ)                 "And I said unto them, If ye think good,                give me my price; and if not, forbear. So they weighed for                 my price thirty pieces of silver."

Matthew 26:15 "And                        asked, 'What are you willing to give me                        if I hand him over to you?' So they                        counted out for him thirty pieces of                        silver."

Judas gives up Jesus to Temple authorities for                30                 pieces of silver....                 Zechariah 11:13 written: 487 BC (Before Christ)                 "And the Lord said unto me, Cast it unto the potter: a goodly price that I was prized at of                 them. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them to the potter in the house of the                 Lord."

Matthew 27:6-7 "The                        chief priests picked up the coins and                        said, 'It is against the law to put this                        into the treasury, since it is blood                        money.' So they decided to use the money                        to buy the potter's field as a burial                        place for foreigners."

The false accusation....                 Psalm 35:11 written: 1042 BC (Before Christ)                 "False witnesses did rise up; they laid to                my charge things that I knew not."

 

The Jewish Messiah was to come first as a Suffering Servant

 

His Own Disciples Forsake Him the                forsaking of the disciples through being offended                 at him.....Psalm 31:11 written: 1042 BC (Before Christ) Zecheriah 13:7  - "Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, against the Man who is My Companion," says the LORD of hosts. "Strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered; then I will turn My hand against the little ones. Matthew 26:31 - Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night, for it is written: `I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'

"I was a reproach among all mine enemies,                but especially among my neighbors, and a fear to                 mine acquaintance: they that did see me without fled from me".

FIRST HE WAS BEATEN

Isaiah 50:6 - I gave My back to those who struck Me, and My cheeks to those who plucked out the beard; I did not hide My face from shame and spitting. Matt 26:67 - Then they spat in His face and beat Him; and others struck Him with the palms of their hands,

the mockery of the spectators...                 Psalm 109:25 written: 1023 BC (Before Christ)                 "I became a reproach unto them: when they                looked upon me they shaked their heads."

being crucified....                 Psalm 22:16 written: 1018 BC (Before Christ)                 "For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of                the                 wicked have enclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet."

John 20:27 "Then he                        said to Thomas, 'Put your finger here;                        see my hands. Reach out your hand and put                        it into my side. Stop doubting and                        believe.'

Jesus                bears our sins at Calvary...                 Isaiah 53:4 written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "Surely he hath borne our griefs, and                carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten                 of God, and afflicted."
                Isaiah 53:5 (Suffering Servant Passage) written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "But he was wounded for our transgressions,                he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of                our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."

Matthew 8:16-17 "When                        evening came, many who were                        demon-possessed were brought to him, and                        he drove out the spirits with a word and                        healed all the sick. This was to fulfill                        what was spoken through the prophet                        Isaiah: 'He took up our infirmities and                        carried our diseases."

Isaiah                50:6 written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "I gave my back to the smiters, and my                cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my                 face from shame and spitting."

Being crucified between two thieves was a fulfillment of prophecy (numbered with the transgressors) also.  

Mark:15:27-28: And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left. And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

Isaiah 53:12: Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

Luke 23:34: Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

Messiah will be Rejected in Israel:

Isaiah 8:14 written: 742 BC (Before Christ)                 "And he shall be a sanctuary; but for a                stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both                the houses of Israel, for a gin and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem."
                Isaiah 53:3 written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "He is despised and rejected of men; a man                of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were                our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Psalm 22: 14-19, written 1000 BC - I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. 15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. 16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. 17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. 18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. 19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.

Psalm 118:22-23 - The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes.

Isaiah 28:16 - Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; whoever believes will not act hastily.

John 1:11 "He came to                        that which was his own, but his own did                        not receive him."

 

Jesus bears our sins at Calvary...                 Isaiah 53:4 written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "Surely he hath borne our griefs, and                carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten                 of God, and afflicted."
                Isaiah 53:6 written: 712 BC (Before Christ)                 "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have                turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid                on him the iniquity of us all."

Psalm 22:6-8:                written: 1018 BC (Before Christ)

But I am a worm, and                no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the                people.  All they that see me                laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake                the head saying, He trusted on the                Lord that he would deliver him: let him deliver him,                seeing he delighted in him.
