Daniel 9:24 says the Messiah will come, die, and then the temple would be destroyed. Isaiah 49 says this Messiah will be rejected by the nation of Israel, but be a Light to the gentiles (non-jews). Isaiah 53 says this Messiah will be bruised, beaten, and killed, buried with the rich, and then have His days prolonged (ressurrection).
Jesus came, was rejected by Israel, killed, buried with the rich (which was a rarity for convincted criminals), and then rose from the dead, then the temple was destroyed. The jews have been without a temple now for around 2000 years! And now, 2000 years later, the Gentile world now worships the God of Israel because of this Jesus of Nazareth, the most influential jew in the history of mankind; the most influential man in the history of mankind.
There are hundreds of prophecies in The Bible, this is just one of them that is so powerful, it's undeniable.
