Messianic Prophecies

"Messiah" means "Anointed One"

Biblical prophecy specialists Peter and Paul LaLonde have noted that:

The Old Testament includes about sixty different prophecies, with more than 300 references, of the coming of the Messiah. It was through the fulfillment of these prophecies that Israel was told she would be able to recognize the true Messiah when He came. The four gospels record several times when Jesus said that He was fulfilling a prophecy of the Old Testament. Luke 24:27 records, for example,

"And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself." And verse 44 notes, "And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and the prophets and the psalms, concerning me." [Peter and Paul LaLonde, 301 Startling Proofs & Prophecies (Niagra Falls, Ontario, Canada: Prophecy Partners, Inc., 1996).]

Jesus Christ himself said, "For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me" (John 5:46, NKJV). Likewise, Christ's disciples taught that He fulfilled Old Testament prophecy (e.g., Acts 3:18; 17:2-3; 1 Corinthians 15:3-4).

Partial list of prophecies about the Messiah....

"...
10. He will be born of a virgin (Isaiah 7:14). Fulfilled: Matthew 1; Luke 1.

11. The Messiah would be the “seed of of a woman” come to destroy the work of the Devil. Not long after Creation, God prophecied to the serpent Satan, "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" (Genesis 3:15).
The implication was that Eve's descendant would undo the damage that Satan had caused.

The “seed of the woman” can only be an allusion to a future descendant of Eve who would have no human father. Biologically, a woman produces no seed, and except in this case Biblical usage always speaks only of the seed of men. This promised Seed would, therefore, have to be miraculously implanted in the womb. In this way, He would not inherit the sin nature which would disqualify every son of Adam from becoming a Savior from sin. This prophecy thus clearly anticipates the future virgin birth of Christ.

Satan will inflict a painful wound on the woman's Seed, but Christ in turn will inflict a mortal wound on the Serpent, crushing his head. This prophecy was fulfilled in the first instance at the cross, but will culminate when the triumphant Christ casts Satan into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:10)...."

Old Testament Prophecies And Fulfillment...

Because of the prophecies regarding the Messiah's lineage, anyone claiming to be the Messiah will have to prove that he is from the tribe of Judah and from the house of David. Since the only way that was possible was through the geneological records that were kept in the Temple, and since those records were destroyed with the Temple by the Roman Legions under Titus in A.D. 70, then the Messiah would naturally need to have come before then in order to be able to prove His Messiahship. Anyone coming after the destruction of the Temple claiming to be the Messiah, would obviously have to be rejected on the grounds that he could not prove his claim.

There was only one who claimed to be the Messiah and was able to prove His lineage through the Temple records and that was Jesus.

Although it is not so clear from the O.T. prophecies, it is nonetheless prophesied that the Messiah will come twice - the first time as the suffering servant (Yesha`yahu / Isaiah 53:1-12) to 'Galilee of the nations' (Yesha`yahu / Isaiah 9:1-2); the second time as a conquering king to stand on the Mount of Olives (Zekharyah / Zechariah 14:3-4).
