Jesus In Old Testament

[Mendieta]

Can you please show me specific references in the old testament which shows the coming of Jesus Christ.

Read the first two or three chapters of Matthew’s Gospel - make sure the Bible you use has good footnotes - there are numerous Old Testament prophecies listed there that are fulfiled in Jesus and the circumstances surrounding his birth, and the footnotes will refer you to the appropriate Old Testament chapters.

Then read Psalm 22 (21 in some numberings), which Jesus himself quoted from the Cross (the one that begins ‘my God, my God, why have you forsaken me’) and verses 17-19 (16-18 in some numberings) which read as follows:

’They have pierced my hands and feet – I can count all my bones – they stare and gloat over me; they divide my garments among them, and for my raiment they cast lots.’

And see if that doesn’t tally with Gospel accounts of the crucifixion (hands and feet pierced with nails, crowds jeering at Jesus, soldiers gambling over his clothes?)

It starts in the beginning, but it is very apperant after man’s fall that God apportioned a savior.
Genesis 3:

14 Then the LORD God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, you shall be banned from all the animals and from all the wild creatures; On your belly shall you crawl, and dirt shall you eat all the days of your life. 15 %between%I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; He will strike at your head, while you strike at his heel.”

MESSIANIC PROPHECIES FULFILLED BY JESUS CHRIST That list is both accurate and extensive. Scripture Catholic is a really good resource.
Pax tecum,

See also Isaiah 53:

1 Who would believe what we have heard? To whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?

2 He grew up like a sapling before him, like a shoot from the parched earth; There was in him no stately bearing to make us look at him, nor appearance that would attract us to him.

3 He was spurned and avoided by men, a man of suffering, accustomed to infirmity, One of those from whom men hide their faces, spurned, and we held him in no esteem.

4 Yet it was our infirmities that he bore, our sufferings that he endured, While we thought of him as stricken, as one smitten by God and afflicted.

5 But he was pierced for our offenses, crushed for our sins, Upon him was the chastisement that makes us whole, by his stripes we were healed.

6 We had all gone astray like sheep, each following his own way; But the LORD laid upon him the guilt of us all.

7 Though he was harshly treated, he submitted and opened not his mouth; Like a lamb led to the slaughter or a sheep before the shearers, he was silent and opened not his mouth.

8 Oppressed and condemned, he was taken away, and who would have thought any more of his destiny? When he was cut off from the land of the living, and smitten for the sin of his people,

9 A grave was assigned him among the wicked and a burial place with evildoers, Though he had done no wrong nor spoken any falsehood.

10 (But the LORD was pleased to crush him in infirmity.) If he gives his life as an offering for sin, he shall see his descendants in a long life, and the will of the LORD shall be accomplished through him.

11 Because of his affliction he shall see the light in fullness of days; Through his suffering, my servant shall justify many, and their guilt he shall bear.

12 Therefore I will give him his portion among the great, and he shall divide the spoils with the mighty, Because he surrendered himself to death and was counted among the wicked; And he shall take away the sins of many, and win pardon for their offenses.
