Finding Jesus in the Old Testament (the Jewish Scriptures)

Jesus in the Old Testament? You Bet!

When Jesus the Jewish Messiah, was on this earth, the respected rabbi taught about Himself from the Old Testament (there was no New Testament at the time). After His resurrection, He said to His disciples, "O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: Ought not Messiah to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? And beginning at Moses and the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures (the Jewish Scriptures) the things concerning himself" (Luke 24:25-27 KJV). Your Christian faith is built upon the Jewish Tanakh (the Old Testament). Therefore we should be able to go through the Jewish Scriptures and find Jesus virtually everywhere. That is exactly what we do in "Finding Jesus in the Old Testament."
