What about the prophecies of old testament?

Of course some of them are not clear.but there's others that points to jesus. By example in isaiah 53 we can see that: 1-the messiah would be rejected by his own people(isaiah 53:3) .2-the messiah would be silent before his accusers(isaiah 53:7) 3-the messiah would be crucified with criminals(isaiah 53:12) 4-the messiah would be a sacrifice for sin(isaiah 53:5-12).

Thanks for your reply.

I don't see anywhere in Isaiah 53 where the word messiah is used. Can you please show me where you see that?

I don't see where it says the messiah would be a sacrifice for sin.

Verse 5 actually says the servant spoken of was wounded/pained from the sins of others, nothing about dying for the sins of others.

Verse 3 actually says the servant spoken of was despised and rejected by men, I don't see where it says by his own people.

Verse 9 actually uses the word "deaths". That is in the plural. Obviously it is speaking of "people" not a person. And the translations say he made his grave with the wicked and with the rich in his death. That's the opposite of what the Christian bible says where Jesus died with the criminals and and was buried with the rich.


In addition, verse 10 says the servant spoken of will be as a guilt offering. So the servant was guilty of sin. From what I understand, Christian theology teaches Jesus was sinless.

And verse 11 says the servant will justify the many with knowledge. If I'm not mistaken, Christian theology teaches Jesus justifies people who believe in him by his blood and death, nothing about knowledge.

So to sum things up, I don't see anything in this chapter that relates to Jesus or a messiah.

All of this is clear if one understands the Hebrew language that it is written in. Using translations of translations does not give you a true accurate translation.
