Question

Basic divinity school stuff.

Answer 1

Layla did an EXCELLENT job!!

My research found 18, Layla listed quite a few of the same I found. But my scripture references are just a bit different. Maybe together we may be able to give you information that will take your project to another level.

I'm not sure if the translation is part of the difference we have found different scripture - I used NIV.

Messiah was to be born in Bethlehem:
OT Micah 5:2 - NT Matthew 2:1-6 & Luke 2:1-20

Layla: Isaiah 7:14 - Born of a virgin - Matthew 1:18-23
NT also is Luke 1:26-38

Messiah was to be a prophet like Moses:
OT Deut 18:15,18-19 - NT John 7:40

Layla: Zechariah 9:9 - Entry into Jerusalem on colt - Matthew 21:1-9
Messiah was to enter Jerusalem in triumph:
OT Zechariah 9:9 - NT Matt 21:1-9 & John 12:12-16

Layla: Isaiah 53:1 - Not believed in - John 12:37, 38
Messiah was to be rejected by his own people:
OT Isaiah 53:1,3 & Psalm 118:22
NT Matt 26:3-4, John 12:37-43 & Acts 4:1-12

Layla: Psalm 41:9; 109:8 - One apostle unfaithful betrays Jesus & is replaced - Acts 1:15-20
Messiah was to be betrayed by one of his followers:

Messiah was to be tried and condemned
OT Isaiah 53:8 - NT Luke 23:1-25 & Matt 27:1-2

Messiah was to be silent before his accusers:
OT Isaiah 53:7 - NT Matt 27:12-14, Mark 15:3-4 & Luke 23:8-10

Messiah was to be mocked and insulted

Messiah was to die by crucifixion:
OT Psalm 22:14,16-17 - NT Matt 27:31 & Mark 15:20,25

Layla: Isaiah 53:12 - Numbered with sinners - Matthew 27:38
Messiah was to suffer with criminals and pray for his enemies:
OT Isaiah 53:12 - NT Matt 27:38, Mark 15:27-28 & Luke 23:32-34

Psalm 69:21 - Given vinegar - Mark 15:23, 36
(and gall) NT also is Matt 27:34 & John 19:28-30

Layla: Psalm 22:18- Lots cast for his garments- John 19:23, 24
NT also is Matt 27:35

Messiahs bones were not to be broken:
OT Exodus 12:46 - NT John 19:31-36

Messiah was to die as a sacrifice for sin:
OT Isaiah 53:5,6,8,10,12 & NT John 1:29,11:49-52 & Acts 10:43, 13:38,39

Messiah was to be raised from the dead
OT Psalm 16:10 - Acts 2:22-32 & Matt 28:1-10

Messiah is now at God's right hand:
OT Psalm 110:1 - NT Mark 16:19 & Luke 24:50,51
