Christ's birth was the fulfullment of a prophecy. Despite having completely opposite intentions, the 3wise men and the Romans sought Christ because of prophetic Jewish teachings. I would direct this question to a Bible analysis site.

See Isaiah 9:6,7 and Isaiah 53 for a few. He actually full filled over 300 prophecies and 29 in one day.

Psalms 22:1 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?
Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
Psalms 22:7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying, 8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.
Matthew 27:41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said, 42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him. 43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.
Psalms 22:18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.
Luke 23:34 Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.

Isaiah 53:5 said that he would be pierced for our transgressions, and the fulfillment can be read at John 19:34 where Jesus was jabbed in the side, causing blood and what looked like water to come out. (Jesus' blood was literally poured out for us.)

PROPHECY AND THE 4TH COMMANDMENT ( Exodus 20 : 8 - 11 ) ..REMEMBER the Sabbath Day to keep it holy ...Remember is the emphasis God gave to the Jews and to You and Me ..Remember in that God made the world in six days and Rested on the SEVENTH DAY SABBATH ...However , satan hardened people's hearts to obey God's Commandments...JESUS said : THINK NOT THAT I COME TO DESTROY THE LAW , OR THE PROPHETS : I AM NOT COME TO DESTROY , BUT TO FULFIL...FOR VERILY I SAY UNTO YOU , TILL HEAVEN AND EARTH PASS , ONE JOT OR ONE TITLE SHALL IN NO WISE PASS FROM THE LAW , TILL ALL BE FULFILLED. WHOSOEVER THEREFORE SHALL BREAK ONE OF THESE LEAST COMMANDMENTS , AND SHALL TEACH MEN SO , HE SHALL BE CALLED THE LEAST IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN: BUT WHOSOEVER SHALL DO AND TEACH THEM , THE SAME SHALL BE CALLED GREAT IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN....i.e. Jesus came to show the world the WAY , THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE...FULFILLED THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS ,BUT THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT...That is WHY in REVELATION 22 : 14 ...BLESSED IS HE THAT DO HIS COMMANDMENTS THAT HE SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO THE TREE OF LIFE ( restored after taken from EDEN ) AND SHALL ENTER THROUGH THE GATE INTO THE CITY ....God Bless

His bones were not to be broken.
He died before the Roman soldiers could break His legs.
They did this so the person could die quicker

Isaiah 53
1Who hath believed our report? And to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant and as a root out of a dry ground: He hath no form nor comeliess, and when we shall see Him there is no beauty that we should desire Him.
3He 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.
4Surely He hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows, yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5But 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.
6All 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.
7He was oppressed, and He was afflicted, yet He opened not his mouth; He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb so He openeth not His mouth.
8He was taken from prison and from judgment, and who shall declare His generation? for He was cut off out of the land of the living; for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9And He made His grave with the wicked and with the rich in his death because He had done no violence, neither was any deceit in His mouth.
10Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; He hath put Him to grief: when thou shalt make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see his seed, He shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand.
11He shall see of the travail of His soul and shall be satisfied; by His knowledge shall My righteous servant justify many; for He shall bear their iniquities.
12Therefore 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.
