Through Israel’s prophets, God announced the coming of his Messiah, his special anointed one, Yeshua. After Yeshua’s crucifixion and resurrection, when he was walking with the disciples on the Emmaus Road, he explained everything to them through “the things that can be found throughout the Tanakh concerning himself” (Luke 24:27). Although there are literally hundreds of texts from the Tanakh that point to the messiah, the articles in the Bible focusses on messianic prophecies that provide the foundation of God’s program to bring blessing to his world through the Messiah (CJB).
Deuteronomy 18:18 (CJB)
18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their kinsmen. I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I order him.
Isaiah 7:14 (CJB)
14 Therefore Adonai himself
will give you people a sign:
the young woman will become pregnant,
bear a son and name him ‘Immanu El [God is with us].
