Isaiah 53's Prophecies
In the Old Testament there are forty-forty prophecies that Jesus fulfilled during his time on earth. Many of them state who the Messiah would be a descendant of or details about where he would be born. These prophecies also describe certain actions that would take place around the life of Christ. All of the fulfillments of these prophecies are important to the life of Jesus because they solidify the truth that Jesus was the son of God sent to earth, just as God had promised his people in the Old Testament. In the book of Isaiah there are many prophecies that talk about the life of Jesus. Isaiah 53 tells many specific details about the life that the Messiah would live. Verse 3 says that the Messiah would be

    Bibl450 Paper #1 Daniel's 70 Weeks of Prophecy

    The Christian era began soon after 457 years and nine months of this time. At around the time of 26 AD, John the Baptist starts his assigned ministry and he baptizes Jesus, who later the same year, began his ministry too. The prophecy dictates that the Messiah, or the Anointed One’s, killing would be on the seventieth week, or after three and a half years. During this time, the city and the temple of Jerusalem would face destruction. Daniel was a captive of Babylon since 606. As Daniel was praying for the restoration and redeeming of his people, the Angel of the Lord came to him and made it clear the exact time of the long- awaited Messianic Kingdom. The following…

    The Four Gospels Chapter Summary

    When one is reading the Old Testament, it feels as though a piece of a puzzle is missing. The Gospel accounts of the life of Christ complete the puzzle begun in the Old Testament and bring the Old Testament narrative to its culmination. In this way, Jesus fulfills the Old Testament promises and expectations. What we see in the Gospels, is that the end-time promises reach their fulfillment in the eternal Son of God incarnate: Jesus of Nazareth.…

    The Gospel In N. T. Wright's Simply Good News

    The text begins with a description of the term ‘news’. “For something to qualify as news, there has to be (1) an announcement of an event that has happened; (2) a larger context, a backstory, within which this makes sense; (3) a sudden unveiling of the new future that lies ahead; and (4) a transformation the present moment, sitting between the event that has happened and the further event that therefore will happen” (Wright 23). All four of these components are present in the Gospel account. The Hebrew scriptures announce that there is a coming messiah who will be put to death but will ultimately end the reign of sin through his resurrection. Furthermore, the Gospel set within the larger context of ancient Roman society and God’s longstanding relationship with the people of Israel. Finally, there is a glimpse of the new future when people…

    Empirical Fullfillment of Prophecy

    The lineage of Jesus is a compelling prophecy because many of these were fulfilled in the Old Testament prior to Jesus birth. His birth is unique because of the prerequisite requirements to fulfill the prophecy which included being born of the lineage of David, His date of birth, He was delivered in Bethlehem and born to a virgin mother. Daniel 9:25 scripture speaks to the coming of the Messiah “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One,[a] the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble" (Holy Bible). The scripture refers to the Anointed One, followed by the ruler; this is a direct foreshadowing of Jesus.…

    Prophecy In Oedipus

    “Show me the man whose happiness was anything more than illusion.” (59) In the ancient Greek drama of Oedipus the King, prophecy plays a major role in the play. Prophecy is considered to be something that comes from the gods, something divine that is the truth and cannot be changed. Prophecy doesn’t seem to permit concept of free-will, a highly popular and controversial topic in today’s modern world. Free-will, as defined by Merriam-Webster, is “freedom of humans to make choices that are not determined by prior causes or by divine intervention” [1]. Prophecy, as defined by Merriam-Webster, is “the inspired declaration of divine will and purpose” [2]. The two oppose each other quite clearly and in Oedipus the King, it is prophecy that takes…

    A Commentary on Isaiah 6

    A Commentary on Isaiah 6

    Isaiah 6 is written with a mixture of prose and verse, detailing the calling, or commission, of Isaiah by the Lord God. Much of the verse is written in the style of a vision, detailing message to the people of Judea. The main theme running through Isaiah is the message of salvation, even the name of the prophet means ‘salvation of Yahweh’. The book is first of the ‘major prophets’, so called due to its greater length than the shorter ‘minor prophets’ or ‘twelve prophets’. In the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible and in all other English Bibles, the book follows on from the Song of Solomon or Song of Songs. However in the Hebrew Bible, it is seen after 2 Kings, which A.S. Herbert states is ‘a more natural order since this prophet [Isaiah] was deeply involved in the historical events of his day’ and gave a ‘distinctive interpretation of these events’ (1973:1). The genre of the book is mainly of a prophetic nature, with a mixture of oracles, prophesies and reports of the situation in Judah; however it does deviate from this, most notably in chapter 13, where it takes the form of a supposed psalm. This book is written at a time of great strife for the region of Israel. The region has split into two kingdoms, the Assyrian empire is closing in around them and the death of Jeroboam II of Israel (745 BC) and the death Uzziah of Judah (742) ended a time of peace, security and prosperity for both states. Soon after Jeroboams death, civil war broke out in Israel and in 721 BC the Assyrian armies completely subjugated the kingdom. So, we can see that Isaiah is writing in a time of great conflict and insecurity, which increased throughout his prophetic life, ending in the unavoidable conquering of the small Judean kingdom by the Assyrian empire.…

    Why Read The Old Testament

    But one of the most importance prophecies recorded in the Old Testament was the prophecies of the coming of the Messiah. Without the Old Testament, we as Christian would not understand why the Messiah was coming (Isaiah 53). The Old Testament also, prophesied on the Messiah’s birth place “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall come forth to Me, The One to be Ruler in Israel, whose goings forth are from of old, from everlasting” (Micah 5:2), his death and his resurrection “For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption” (Psalm 16:10). Also, on Jesus Christ ministry and what he did in his…

    The Visions of Ezekiel

    God choses whomever He wants to give His messages to His people. In the Old Testament, God chose very specific people to give His message to Israel. Ezekiel, was a great man of God and very faithful to Him. The messages he received from God were intense and different than other prophets of Israel. The Lord allowed Ezekiel to have visions of which he traveled through, and heard the voice of the Lord. Ezekiel was obedient to the visions and listened to God’s voice and what He instructed him to do, no matter what the consequence was or how strange, terrifying, weird the message may have been for Israel. These visions can even be applied today in the modern day church and show how much God loves His people despite repetitive sin.…

    'Romanticism In A Rose For Emily'

    Edgar Allen Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Emily Dickinson are just some of the few authors who wrote gothic literature stories. American Romanticism was used to show the reactions to the restrictions of the puritans during the 1800’s. The purpose of Gothic literature was and still is to entertain, to present a moral, and to inspire improvement of oneself through imagination. Desolate location, ghost or spirit, use of symbols, an attempt to escape for a moment are some characteristics that dark romanticism uses. Of course not all gothic stories have to have every single element listed to be considered gothic literature. “A rose for Emily” is a Gothic story.…
