Questa mattina sono arrivate alla base nel Sud della Turchia i primi jet sauditi, nell’ambito della coalizione anti-Isis, come annunciato ieri Ahmed al-Assiri, consigliere e portavoce del ministero della Difesa di Riad, precisando che per il momento sarebbero stati inviati solo velivoli e non “truppe di terra”.

I gruppi di insorti legati alle due potenze sunnite stanno crollando ad Aleppo, ormai circondata, dove la battaglia si concentra nel sobborgo di Haritan, sottoposto fra ieri e questa mattina ad almeno venti raid. [ Obici da 115 millimetri ] Più a nord i guerriglieri crudi hanno sbaragliato i ribelli arabi e turkmeni che tenevano la base di Menagh (o Minnigh). Proprio la base è stata questa mattina sottoposta a un secondo giorno di bombardamenti da parte dell’artiglieria turca, con i potenti obici da 155 millimetri. La base si trova a meno di 20 chilometri dalla frontiera.

QUESTA è DIVENTATA LA EUROPA DI CHI? FUORI DALL'EUROPA E DALLA NATO SUBITO .. Ucraina, nazionalisti bloccano camion da Russia verso Europa: Kiev rischia multa da UE, 14.02.2016 (In precedenza in varie regioni gruppi di nazionalisti ucraini avevano bloccati i camion russi, in viaggio verso l'Europa. Inizialmente ha iniziato il blocco la Transcarpazia, dopodichè l'azione di boicottaggio si è diffusa in una serie di altre regioni. Bloccare i camion provenienti dalla Russia che attraverso l'Ucraina sono diretti in Europa potrebbe costare salate multe a Kiev, ritiene l'analista politico ucraino Konstantin Bondarenko. In precedenza, in alcune regioni dell'Ucraina sono stati bloccati i camion russi che viaggiano in transito attraverso l'Ucraina. Il blocco è iniziato nella Transcarpazia e in seguito hanno aderito all'azione di boicottaggio diverse altre regioni. Il politologo ha spiegato che quasi tutti i prodotti su cui viaggiano i camion sono stati pagati, pertanto sono di proprietà degli europei e non dei russi. "Tutta le merci in viaggio verso i territori della UE non sono sotto sanzioni, pertanto vengono trasportate nel pieno rispetto delle leggi. I clienti europei hanno tutto il diritto di avanzare pretese all'Ucraina e di pretendere dal governo la ripresa delle forniture interrotte e chiedere che vengano consegnate ai consumatori in tempo. In caso contrario, l'Ucraina rischia multe salate," — Bondarenko ha scritto sulla sua pagina di Facebook. A questo proposito, l'analista ha ricordato che il 16 aprile che si svolgerà un referendum sull'accordo di associazione tra l'Ucraina e l'Unione Europea. "Chi soffre? La Russia? Tra l'altro tra meno di 2 mesi in Olanda c'è un referendum. Ricordate?", — Conclude Bondarenko.

ROMA, 14 FEB - La Russia "fallirà nel suo tentativo di salvare Bashar al Assad", così come l'Iran. Lo dice il ministro degli Esteri saudita, Adel al-Jubeir, citato dai media panarabi, in conferenza stampa a Riad. Mosca "deve fermare i suoi raid aerei contro l'opposizione moderata siriana", ha aggiunto l'alto responsabile saudita. La caduta di Assad "è solo questione di tempo, prima o dopo il regime cadrà, aprendo la strada per una nuova Siria senza Assad", ha concluso Jubeir.
14 FEB - La Turchia "ha colpito con la sua artiglieria le postazioni dell'Esercito siriano nel nord della provincia di Aleppo": lo afferma un comunicato del governo di Damasco citato da Russia Today. I bombardamenti "proseguono anche oggi". Ieri Ankara ha colpito postazioni delle forze curdo-siriane del Pyd, nella zona di Azaz. Si tratta, recita il testo, di un "sostegno diretto al terrorismo" da parte della Turchia.
14 FEB - "Non lasceremo che la situazione in Siria vada come vogliono le nazioni ribelli, prenderemo le misure necessario in tempo": lo ha detto il vice capo di Stato maggiore iraniano, Masoud Jazayeri, ammonendo Riad sul prospettato intervento di terra. "L'Arabia Saudita ha utilizzato tutto ciò che aveva a disposizione in Siria e ha fallito, non solo lì ma anche in Yemen", ha aggiunto alla tv iraniana Al-Aalam, definendo l'ipotesi di invio di truppe sul terreno come un "bluff", un atto di "guerra psicologica".

Published time: 12 Feb, 2016 06:10 Russian PM Dmitry Medvedev told German media that sending foreign troops into Syria could unleash “yet another war on Earth.” The warning follows increasingly aggressive statements made by Saudi Arabia and Turkey amid Bashar Assad’s gains in Aleppo.
“All sides must be compelled to sit at the negotiating table, instead of unleashing yet another war on Earth,” Medvedev told Germany’s Handelsblatt newspaper. “Any kinds of land operations, as a rule, lead to a permanent war. Look at what’s happened in Afghanistan and a number of other countries. I am not even going to bring up poor Libya.”
Russo PM Dmitry Medvedev ha detto ai media tedeschi che l'invio di truppe straniere in Siria potrebbe scatenare "un'altra guerra sulla Terra". L'avvertimento segue sempre più aggressive dichiarazioni fatte da Arabia Saudita e la Turchia tra i guadagni di Bashar Assad a Aleppo. "Tutte le parti devono essere costretti a sedersi al tavolo delle trattative, invece di scatenare un'altra guerra sulla Terra", Medvedev ha detto al giornale Handelsblatt tedesco. "Eventuali tipi di operazioni di terra, come regola, portano ad una guerra permanente. Guardate cosa è successo in Afghanistan e un certo numero di altri paesi.

Nell'ultimo giorno le forze di Assad sono riuscite a prendere il controllo di diverse zone al confine tra le province di Raqqa e Hama, precedentemente controllare dai jihadisti. Nella giornata di ieri nei territori controllati dai ribelli in Siria sono stati lasciati cadere dei volantini in cui, tra le altre cose, si chiedeva ai fondamentalisti di deporre le armi e arrendersi alle autorità. La scorsa settimana l'esercito siriano ha ripreso il controllo su gran parte del confine con la Turchia nella provincia di Latakia. Come più volte sottolineato dai rappresentanti delle forze armate siriane, il controllo completo della zona di confine è una delle loro priorità, dal momento che taglierebbe i rifornimenti di armi e uomini degli islamisti provenienti da Ankara.

Cari avaaziani, bombardano scuole, ospedali, perfino matrimoni: quello che sta facendo l’Arabia Saudita in Yemen è disgustoso. E lo sta facendo con armi vendute da Italia, Europa, Stati Uniti e Canada. Ma tra 48 ore possiamo ottenere l’impensabile: una vittoria storica contro la vendita di armi ai sauditi. Martedì il Parlamento europeo può finalmente decidere se votare un embargo totale sulla vendita di armi all’Arabia, ma la pressione delle lobby e dei sauditi per bloccare il voto è enorme. Ora più che mai i politici europei devono sentire che da ogni angolo del mondo chiediamo tutti la stessa cosa: resistere e dire “NO” alle atrocità dell’Arabia Saudita. Firma questa campagna urgente per chiedere l’embargo sulle armi e dare tutto il nostro sostegno a chi sta lottando per ottenerlo:
https://secure.avaaz.org/it/saudi_arms_deal_it/?bXGknib&v=72832&cl=9484350254
Le guerre si fanno finire anche così: smettendo di vendere armi a chi le fa. Fino a pochi anni fa sarebbe stato impensabile, perché i rapporti tra i nostri governi e il regime saudita erano troppo forti. Ma anche per i nostri politici sta diventando sempre più difficile ignorare la totale mancanza di rispetto per i diritti umani da parte del regime. L’Europa è a un passo dal votare un embargo, devono solo capire che tutto il mondo li sta guardando.
Una bomba saudita ha ucciso oltre 200 invitati a un matrimonio. Sparano dagli elicotteri sui civili in fuga. È difficile togliersi dalla testa certe immagini, ma è proprio così che le “nostre” armi vengono usate. Lo Yemen si trova in mezzo a una guerra a distanza tra Arabia e Iran, entrambi colpevoli di violenze terrificanti. Questo voto europeo da solo non farà finire la guerra, ma può mandare un messaggio chiaro: non venderemo più armi a un regime che bombarda indiscriminatamente la popolazione civile. E dopo una vittoria così in Europa, potremo passare anche agli altri governi. Il regime saudita non è l’unico a sfruttare questi traffici: i grandi produttori di armi europei stanno guadagnando miliardi grazie al massacro in Yemen! L'Italia è uno dei più grossi esportatori di armi al mondo e l'Arabia è uno dei nostri maggiori clienti. Se non agiamo subito, l'influenza delle grandi aziende sui politici rischia di far continuare questo orrore ancora a lungo.
Wael* è un membro di Avaaz in Yemen che finora è riuscito a sopravvivere agli attacchi che ogni giorno colpiscono il suo Paese. Il suo messaggio per tutti noi è che “la storia si ricorderà di chi ha contribuito a portare la pace”. Agiamo subito, per Wael, la sua famiglia, e milioni di altre persone. Partecipa e condividi la campagna, abbiamo poche ore per essere determinanti nel fermare la vendita di armi all’Arabia:
https://secure.avaaz.org/it/saudi_arms_deal_it/?bXGknib&v=72832&cl=9484350254
Quello che rende speciale la nostra comunità è proprio questa connessione che riusciamo a creare oltre ogni confine, in tutto il mondo, per ottenere il cambiamento e rompere il silenzio. Ora dobbiamo fare quello che sappiamo fare meglio, agire velocemente e in massa: possiamo salvare milioni di vite in pericolo.
Con speranza,
Ai membri del Parlamento europeo, ai Capi di stato di Italia, Gran Bretagna, Stati Uniti, Canada, Germania, Francia e tutti gli altri Paesi che hanno accordi di vendita di armi con l'Arabia Saudita: Da tutto il mondo vi chiediamo con forza di sospendere immediatamente ogni accordo di vendita di armi all’Arabia Saudita fino a quando il Paese non fermerà i suoi attacchi in Yemen e darà inizio a un vero processo di pace. Una recente inchiesta dell’ONU ha documentato ben 119 violazioni del diritto umanitario internazionale: è inaccettabile far finta di niente e ignorare che l’Arabia Saudita utilizzi le armi vendute dai nostri Governi per bombardare indiscriminatamente la popolazione civile.
Sono fiero dei nostri europarlamentari che sostengono l'embargo sulle armi vendute all'Arabia Saudita. L'inchiesta dell'ONU sulle atrocità saudite in Yemen mi ha sconvolto. Credo nei diritti umani e diritto umanitario internazionale, e non voglio che l'Europa sia in alcun modo coinvolta in questi attacchi. Se continuiamo a vendere armi all'Arabia Saudita, saremo complici anche noi di questi attacchi indiscriminati sui civili. Vi chiedo di sostenere l'urgente mozione per l'embargo sulle armi questo martedì, e di garantire che non venga indebolita o rimandata.

Le 13 figure negli occhi della Madonna di Guadalupe, Rivelano un messaggio della Vergine Maria: davanti a Dio, gli uomini e le donne di tutte le razze sono uguali, Gary Burleigh, Pildorasdefe.net 15 giugno 2015. Gli occhi della Madonna di Guadalupe costituiscono un grande enigma per la scienza, come hanno rilevato gli studi dell'ingegner José Aste Tönsmann del Centro di Studi Guadalupani di Città del Messico.
La storia
Alfonso Marcué, fotografo ufficiale dell'antica Basilica di Guadalupe di Città del Messico, ha scoperto nel 1929 quella che sembrava l'immagine di un uomo barbuto riflessa nell'occhio destro della Madonna. Nel 1951 il disegnatore José Carlos Salinas Chávez ha scoperto la stessa immagine mentre osservava con una lente d'ingrandimento una fotografia della Madonna di Guadalupe. L'ha vista riflessa anche nell'occhio sinistro, nello stesso posto in cui si sarebbe proiettato un occhio vivo.
Parere medico e il segreto dei suoi occhi
Nel 1956 il medico messicano Javier Torroella Bueno ha redatto il primo rapporto medico sugli occhi della cosiddetta Virgen Morena. Il risultato: come in qualsiasi occhio vivo si compivano le leggi Purkinje-Samson, ovvero c'è un triplice riflesso degli oggetti localizzati davanti agli occhi della Madonna e le immagini si distorcono per la forma curva delle sue cornee.
Nello stesso anno, l'oftalmologo Rafael Torija Lavoignet ha esaminato gli occhi della Santa Immagine e ha confermato l'esistenza nei due occhi della Vergine della figura descritta dal disegnatore Salinas Chávez.
Inizia lo studio con processi di digitalizzazione
Dal 1979, il dottore in sistemi computazionali e laureato in Ingegneria Civile José Aste Tönsmann ha scoperto il mistero racchiuso dagli occhi della Guadalupana. Mediante il processo di digitalizzazione di immagini per computer, ha descritto il riflesso di 13 personaggi negli occhi della Virgen Morena, in base alle leggi di Purkinje-Samson.
Il piccolissimo diametro delle cornee (di 7 e 8 millimetri) fa escludere la possibilità di disegnare le figure negli occhi, se si tiene conto del materiale grezzo sul quale è immortalata l'immagine.
I personaggi trovati nelle pupille
Il risultato di 20 anni di attento studio degli occhi della Madonna di Guadalupe è stata la scoperta di 13 figure minuscole, afferma il dottor José Aste Tönsmann. http://it.aleteia.org/2015/06/15/le-13-figure-negli-occhi-della-madonna-di-guadalupe/
Cattolici e ortodossi: l’ABC delle differenze e dei punti in comune. Perché l'incontro tra Papa Francesco e il Patriarca Kirill è storico? Risponde Manuel Nin, nuovo Esarca Apostolico di Grecia per i fedeli di rito bizantino Per la prima volta nella Storia si incontreranno un Papa della Chiesa cattolica e un Patriarca della Chiesa ortodossa russa. Dopo un’antichissima divisone, Papa Francesco e il patriarca di Mosca Cirillo si incontreranno venerdì 12 febbraio a Cuba, durante la visita che il Pontefice farà prima di andare in Messico.
Per analizzare le prime conseguenze di questo evento, Aleteia ha intervistato padre Manuel Nin, benedettino spagnolo cattolico di rito orientale.
“I risultati si vedranno nei prossimi mesi, o forse anni. Ma più che ‘profetizzare’ ciò che potrebbe accadere, è preferibile rimanere nella straordinarietà di questo presente, che mette enfasi sull’importanza di un incontro fraterno“, ha detto.
Il luogo – Entrambi i leader si troveranno in un viaggio in America Latina, non è un incontro improvvisato. E accadrà fuori dell’Europa, epicentro dello scisma del 1054. Lontano dalle sedi ufficiali delle due chiese: Città del Vaticano e Mosca.
“Si è cercata una coincidenza cronologica dei due viaggi in America Latina. Poi si è trovato il punto di incontro, soprattutto per quanto riguarda il ‘campo neutro’ in cui i due possono incontrarsi e parlare”, ha detto padre Nin, che Francesco ha recentemente nominato Esarca Apostolico di Grecia per i fedeli di rito bizantino.
All’aeroporto internazionale José Martí dell’Avana è stata firmata una dichiarazione congiunta tra i primati delle due Chiese cristiane che non sono ancora in piena comunione, aprendo a un possibile nuovo cammino di riconciliazione.
La Chiesa ortodossa russa ha – per numero di fedeli – una notevole influenza nel cristianesimo orientale, contando quasi 165 milioni dei 250 milioni di cristiani ortodossi in tutto il mondo.
Che cosa c’è in gioco? “Vorrei sottolineare l’unità, che è in effetti ciò a cui dovrebbero tendere tutti i cristiani”, ha detto il sacerdote, dal 1999 rettore del Pontificio Collegio Greco di Roma.
Dal punto di vista della fede questo incontro è importante anche per chi è credente (mediante il battesimo): “La cosa importante è che i cristiani – che per mille anni hanno avuto queste divisioni, queste incomprensioni, o a volte ignoranza reciproca – cerchino di ricostruire la piena comunione tramite il Vangelo, tramite la parola di Gesù; è evidente che quando Gesù prega il Padre nel Vangelo di Giovanni, lo fa affinché tutti siano uno”, ha detto.
Sia il sogno di Giovanni Paolo II che gli sforzi silenziosi di Benedetto XVI (che aveva anche conosciuto Kirill, prima che fosse patriarca) sono segmenti della strada che porta alla conquista ecumenica che Papa Bergoglio è riuscito a custodire.
“È un incontro più che positivo, che per molteplici ragioni non era stato possibile realizzare nei decenni precedenti”, ha osservato Nin.
Ma perché è stato più complicato l’incontro con Kirill – Patriarca di Mosca e di tutta la Russia – che con il Patriarca di Costantinopoli, Bartolomeo I?
“Ogni Chiesa ortodossa è una chiesa autocefala, quindi, indipendente. E la via del dialogo, dell’incontro e della relazione con le altre Chiese cristiane ha un suo ritmo”, ha detto il professore di teologie orientali in diverse università pontificie e istituti romani.
È evidente che l’incontro fraterno tra il Papa e il Patriarca di Costantinopoli è stato più veloce rispetto a quello con la Chiesa di Mosca.
Sul volo verso Roma, di ritorno da Ankara, Francesco aveva dichiarato che, a causa della guerra in Ucraina, “il povero (Kirill) ha molti problemi e l’incontro con il Papa è passato in secondo piano. Ma entrambi vogliamo incontrarci e andiamo verso questo obiettivo”.
Nella sua analisi, Nin conferma che si tratta di un “incontro storico in quanto tra due chiese che non sono in piena comunione. Non ci sono stati altri momenti di incontro tra il Papa e il Patriarca di Mosca”.
Quindi, si tratta di una nuova fase nelle relazioni tra cattolici e ortodossi, che inizia a prendere forma dopo anni di conversazioni riservate.
L’esperto ha infatti confermato che nel corso degli ultimi anni vi sono stati incontri personali tra alcuni cardinali e dei metropoliti russi.
“Ma questo evento presente è importante perché sono i due capi delle chiese ad incontrarsi. Questo di per sé è molto positivo, e certamente porterà ad una più profonda comprensione di ciascuna delle due Chiese e alla fratellanza nelle comunità cristiane, che è la cosa più importante”, ha osservato.
Nin mette enfasi sugli aspetti più positivi dell’incontro – nonostante le differenze teologiche, a partire dalle discussioni a causa del “primato del Successore di Pietro“.
“Le Chiese ortodosse riconoscono un primato d’onore come servizio e non come giurisdizione del Papa. La questione del primato è presente anche nelle attuali discussioni delle commissioni teologiche“. http://it.aleteia.org/2016/02/11/cattolici-e-ortodossi-labc-delle-differenze-e-dei-punti-in-comune/

Lo dice il premier russo Dmitry Medvedev in un'intervista a EuroNews. "Noi non abbiamo mai detto che la permanenza di Assad è la questione principale in questo processo, semplicemente crediamo che al momento non c'è nessun'altra autorità legittima", ha aggiunto, ribadendo che la sua uscita di scena porterebbe al "caos, come abbiamo visto diverse altre volte in Medio Oriente quando Paesi sono collassati, come in Libia".

LE 332 Messianic prophecies of L 'Old Testament.
In the Old Testament we find many prophecies That concerning the time of the appearance of Messiah to her life his earthly ministry. to hand to hand That the years went by God by the sacred writers added to special particular until - as an and big beautiful mosaic - the Messiah and to her the work was so well described by be perfectly recognizable to every person sincerely in search of the truth. Here are described in schematically the steps Messianic most important. In the Gospels and especially Matthew (who writes for his fellow Jews) he continually makes reference to the fulfillment of the ancient Messianic prophecies in the life of Jesus Christ:
1 The lineage of Christ]].
in Genesis 3:15 in the first promise of an Salvatore made to Adam and Eve after the sin the Messiah the future is simply defined as "the seed of the woman" (where the woman according to the biblical terminology is understood as "people of God") That will crush the head of the serpent (Satan) and will win coming from him though wounded in the heel (the Devil would have resulted in the death of Salvatore). When God called Abraham to come out of her for earth go in an "That country I will show you" also pointed out: "In thee shall be blessed all the families of the earth" (Genesis 12: 1-3 - L). This step is as has always been understood the messiah; In fact in That and how Abraham the her the offspring would be a source of blessing for the whole world if not to because of That promised Messiah would be born from the line of descendant of the patriarch Shem son of Noah? in Genesis 49:10 we find That while Jacob gives her blessing to the twelve sons of the first die it provides an important clarification: "He That and give the rest to whom obedience of the nations" would be an descendant of the tribe of Judah. in Jeremiah 23: 5-6 / 33: 14-16 it should be noted that of all the families of Judah is that of King David That would have had the privilege of count among his descendants the "Bud right "who" will be called: the LORD our Righteousness "that all Jews identified with the long-awaited Messiah.
2. birth to Bethlehem]].
The text of the prophet Micah (5: 1-2) is very precise as to the place of of birth of the Anointed One the Lord: "But you O Bethlehem Ephrathah... That one will come out to be ruler in Israel whose goings forth are from of old from everlasting... "(L - see. Matthew 2: 3-6).
3 The forerunner John the Baptist]].
Isaiah 40: 3-5 and Malachi 3: 1 heralded the appearance of an "precursor" as described by the prophet Isaiah "a voice crying in the desert prepare the way of Lord Make straight in the desert a highway for our God... "(P - see. Matthew 3: 3). God then define through the prophet Malachi as "my messenger" that "prepares the way to the front me" (cf. Matthew 11: 9-10).
4 Born of a virgin]].
Isaiah 7:14 says That and a young virgin would conceive give birth to n son of name Immanuel. The archangel Gabriel appeared to Mary (cf.. Matthew 1:23) after having commanded of call the child Jesus (which means "Yahweh saves") recalls the prophecy of Isaiah. Obviously the name 'Immanuel' had to be taken for the his etymological meaning (very important for the Semitic peoples) in fact 'Emmanuel' means "God with us we" God in person was for to be born as a man in the world!
5 It would have been the Son of God]].
in Psalm 2: 7 we read: "And the LORD said unto me Thou art my Son today have begotten thee" (L). in Acts 13:33 and Hebrews 1: 5.5: 5 the apostle Paul applies this psalm to Christ. in Matthew 22: 41-46 we find Jesus That raises questions of the Pharisees asked them who had to be descending the promised Messiah. The Pharisees respond without hesitation That would be the "son" of David which is supposed to be of ancestry "royal". This had already predicted Balaam shortly after the exodus of Israel from Egypt: "I see him but not now I look at it but not from near: a star moves from Jacob a scepter rises from Israel... "(Numbers 00:17 - P). Christ replica then the doctors of the law quoting Psalm 110: 1 That he said "The LORD says to my Lord: 'Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet' (ND). Then asks: "If David then call him Lord how is He his son?" (L). Pharisees not knew what to say: that the Master wanted understood the her ancestry "human" by David but also that God from God himself.
6 The Flight into Egypt and the massacre of the innocents]].
Hosea 11: 1 is an step in which speaks of God the chosen people saying: "From out of Egypt I called my son" (L) while Jeremiah 31:15 refers to women of Judea That mourn their sons killed during the siege of the Babylonians: "a voice was heard in Ramah an and lament an and bitter weeping Rachel weeping for her children and refuses of be comforted..." (L).
How many books of the Old Testament these verses have an double meaning: a contemporary historian or for an and an imminent messianic future. We are unsure why in his gospel Matthew (2: 15.18) makes the application referring to the return from the Flight into Egypt of the family of Jesus and perpetrated the massacre of the innocents by Herod That wanted to eliminate the Messiah.
7 Date of and baptism of death]].
in the book of prophet Daniel (9: 24-27) we find a great Messianic prophecy That stated the date of the beginning of the public ministry of Christ That coincided with the his baptism and the date of death. Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks are fixed for your people and for your holy city
to put an end to impiety put the seals sins make reconciliation for iniquity to bring in everlasting righteousness seal up vision and prophecy and anoint the Holy of Holies. 25 and Sappi you mean well since the word went out on the return and the rebuilding of Jerusalem to up an the Prince there shall be seven weeks. During sixty-two weeks will be restored rebuilt and squares ditches and in this troublesome times. 26 After sixty-two weeks an Messiah shall be cut no-fault him; the people of an prince That will destroy the city and the sanctuary; to her the end will be a flood and till the end and war desolations decreed. 27 He will tighten a strong covenant with many for one week and in the space of mid-week will cease the sacrifice and the offering; of the wing the temple will place the abomination of the desolation and it will be until the end until the end marked on the desolate. "
8. miracles]].
Isaiah 35: 5-6 speaks of the great and many miracles That would have made of the Anointed One the Lord of Miracles where it is said in all the Gospels. Isaiah 35: 5-6. 5 Then will the eyes of the blind and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. 6 Then will the lame leap as an deer cry out of joy of the language mute because water will emerge in desert streams in the desert.
9 He spoke parables]].
Psalm 77: 2 I will open my mouth in a parable the mysteries of ancient times. Promises to be a habit of expose the teachings parables That Jesus actually used much in of course his earthly ministry. When asked by his disciples why of this her habit the Savior quoted an step of Isaiah 6: 9-10 That put in emphasize the hardness of heart of the people of Israel That "heard with the ears but not included looked without seeing... ". in practice Jesus implies That spoke parables because only those who had an sincere seeker of the deep spiritual truths are bothered of deepen the symbolic meaning of that That said the Master. Isaiah 6.9. He said "Go 'and referring to this people Hear ye indeed but understand not; observed as well but without knowing. 10 Make the heart of this people foul and hard of hearing blind his eyes and not see with the eyes nor hear with ears nor understand with the heart. nor is converted into so as to be healed. "
10 He lived in Galilee]].
Isaiah 8: 9.23: 1 speaks of the glory That he would see that land of Israel to because of the presence of the Messiah. Isaiah 8:23. because not there will be no darkness where he now is anguish. in the past he humbled the land of and Zebulun land of Naphtali but in make glorious the way of the future sea beyond the Jordan and the curve of the Gentiles. Isaiah 9: 1 That the people walked in darkness have seen a great light; That on those they lived in the land of gloom a light has shone. (see. Matthew 4: 12-16). Matthew 4: 12-16. (12 Having learned That the meantime John had been arrested he withdrew to Galilee 13 And leaving Nazareth he came to live in Capernaum by the sea in the territory of and Zebulun of Naphtali 14 because it that fulfilled what had been said for half of the prophet Isaiah: 15 the country of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali the way of sea of there of Jordan Galilee of the people; 16 the people which sat in Has darkness saw a great light on those That in dwelling land and shadow of death a light is doffing.
11 It would have been light and salvation for all the nations]].
Isaiah 42: 6. "I the Lord Has called for justice and you Has taken for hand; I Has formed and established as alliance of people and light of the nations 7 to open the eyes for the blind and to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon from the prison those That live in darkness.
Isaiah 49: 6. I said "That is too little you should be my servant for restore the tribes of Jacob and bring back the survivors of Israel. But I make you a light of the nations so that my salvation to the ends of the earth. "
Isaiah 56: 8. Oracle of Lord God That gathers the dispersed of Israel: "I will gather still his prisoners besides those already gathered."
Speaks of the fact that of the Anointed the Lord would be a light for all nations of the world and not only for the people of Israel. Simeon a devout man who warned by the Spirit he recognized in Jesus newly born That the Messiah awaited for a long time he spoke of as He of the "Light for lighten the Gentiles and the glory of thy people Israel "(Luke 2:32 - L).
12 The cornerstone]].
Psalm 118: 22-23. and Isaiah 28:16. Thus says the Lord God: "Behold I lay a stone in Zion a stone a precious cornerstone a sure foundation: he that believeth not falter. spoke of an the foundation laid by the Lord of a cornerstone solid and precious That however would have been rejected. Jesus applies to these steps himself (cf.. Matthew 21:42 and parallels) and Jesus said to them "Have you never read in the scriptures The stone That the builders rejected is become the cornerstone ; the Lord is Been done that and is wonderful in our eyes?. Again epistles talk about it.
13 Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem]].
Zechariah 9: 9-11 read: "... Your king is coming to you he is right and victorious humble and mounted on an ass above an the foal of a donkey..." (L ).
Psalm 8: 2. Oh Lord our Lord how is big is your name in all the earth above the heavens you exalted your majesty. 3 with the lips of children and of infants affirm your power against your opponents for to silence enemies and rebels.]] Spoke of the praise out of the mouth of children. Both these things were fulfilled when Jesus a week before of the her death entered triumphantly into Jerusalem mounted on of an the foal of a donkey while the children around to he shouted "Hosanna to the Son of David Blessed is he That is in the name of Lord Hosanna in the highest "(L - see Matthew 21).
14 It would be hated without reason]].
In Psalm 69: 478 David spoke of hatred of which he was subject for no reason. This step was also messianic as many other psalms. John 15: 24-25 [applies this text to Christ]. 24 If not I'd done in half to their works That Has anyone else ever did not they would have no sin; now they have seen and have hated both me and my Father. 25 This was to fulfill the word written in their Law: 'They hated me without reason.
15 It would have been betrayed by an friend]].
Always an psalm of David (Psalm 41: 9) it was said: "Even with the man who was living in peace... that ate my bread Has lifted up his heel against to me. "(L). in John 13:18 applies this same text to the betrayal of Judas. Jesus announces the betrayal of Judas (Mt 26: 21-25; Mr 14: 18-21; Lu 22: 21-23) "I do not speak of all of you; I know those That Has chosen; but because the scripture may be fulfilled: "He That eat my bread Has raised against of me on his heel."
16 predicted the anguish of first of Christ death]].
Psalm 22: 11-15 is one of the Messianic psalms for excellence. Vv. 11-15 is predicted the anguish That would have grasped the idea of Christ separation from the Father to because of of sin That world weighed in on of Him.
Psalm 22: 11-15. Not 11 get away from me for trouble is close and not there's no one That help me. 12 Many bulls have surrounded me strong bulls of Bashan have surrounded me; 13 they open their mouths wide against of me as an and ravening roaring. 14 are poured as water and all my bones are dislocated; my heart is as That wax melts in the midst of my bowels. 15 My strength is you parched as an earthenware and clay my tongue is attached to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death.
17 It would have been abandoned by the disciples]].
In Matthew 26:31 we read That Jesus foreseeing the terror That he would escape all the disciples we apply a prophecy in Zechariah 13: 7: Awake O sword against my shepherd against the man That is my companion. Oracle of the Lord of hosts. Smite the shepherd and both scattered the flock I will turn my hand upon the weak.]] "Then Jesus said unto them All ye Tonight a chance of me fall because is written: 'I will strike the shepherd and the sheep of the flock will be scattered. '"(L).
18. and thirty shekels the field of the potter]].
In Zechariah 11: 12-13 we find an amazing prophecy which God himself speaks through the prophet saying: "If you think good give me my wages and if not forbear. So they weighed for my wages thirty shekels of silver. and the LORD said unto me Cast it for the potter that magnificent price at which they valued me from! and I took the thirty shekels of silver and threw them into the house of the LORD for the potter. "(L). in Matthew 27: 9-10 is cited this prophecy. We know That Judas betrayed the Master for that figure. Then realizing of That what he had done he threw the thirty pieces of silver in the temple. The Pharisees said to him "There is lawful to put them in darling of the offers because they are the price of blood. And they took counsel and bought with the scope of that money potter of serve to bury strangers." (Matthew 27: 6-7 - L).
19 The abuse]].
Isaiah 50: 6/53: 7 Predicts That the Son of God would have been ill-treated the description of which is found in all the last chapters of the Gospels. [[Isaiah 50: 6. HAS my back to the smiters and my cheeks to those That I pulled out my beard; not HAS face away and the insults spitting. Isaiah 53: 7. Oppressed and he was afflicted and not opened her mouth; was as lamb led to the slaughter as of dumb sheep before its shearers and not opened her mouth.
20. taunts]].
In Psalm 22: 7-8 reads: "All That they see me mock of me and lengthen the lip they shake the head saying He is entrusted LORD let Him deliver him the helpers because like it. "in Matthew 27: 39-43 we read these same words with sarcasm by the doctors of the law and by the elders of the Jewish people before the cross.
21 His suffering and the atoning death]].
In one of the most touching distance of the Old Testament and of the whole Bible Isaiah (52:13. Behold my servant shall prosper will be honored and exalted very exalted. 14. as many were astonished of him for he was so disfigured than any man his appearance and other than the her form more than the sons of the man so they will marvel of 15 he many nations and kings to the front he shall shut their mouths because they see an never told them they did and will understand what that never had heard.) (Isaiah cap.53 read the whole chapter) the messianic prophet described the anguish ill-treatment and the atoning death of Salvatore. Also prophesied that it would have been buried in the tomb of an rich (Isaiah 53: 9. They gave him a burial with the wicked with the rich man in his death although not had done no violence neither was any deceit in her mouth.) as in fact happened because Jesus had been buried in the tomb of a new wealthy Joseph of Arimathea.
22 The death on the cross carved up the garments]].
Again in Psalm 22: 16-18 we spoke of "the hands and feet pierced" of divisions of clothes and of to throw the fate of a dress. All this came to pass in so amazing death of Christ when the Roman soldiers after they had crucified him they divided his garments as was the custom then. Psalm 22:16. For dogs have surrounded me; a bevy of I Has evildoers surrounded; I have pierced my hands and the feet. 17 I can count all my bones; and they look at me look at me. 18 They divide my garments among them and to pull lots for my clothing. ] Fulfillment [John 19: 23-24 quoting this psalm That precise the soldiers seeing That the tunic of Jesus was seamless and therefore of good workmanship they decided of pull it to have arisen between them.
23. vinegar to drink and of death heartbreak]].
Psalm 69: 20-21 spoke of broken heart pain] Psalm 69:20. Reproach Has broken heart and are full of heaviness; Has who waited to comfort me but in vain; Has who waited to comfort me but not there was none. 21 I have instead given gall for food and for thirst they gave me to drink of the vinegar.]... That you think it was this death of Jesus: That in fact Pilate marveled was dead so hurry since that the torment of the cross had been designed especially for last for many hours. in psalm also speaks of gall and vinegar offered to drink (cf.. Matthew 27: 333448).
24 "My God my God why have you forsaken me?" ]].
In Psalm 22: 1 we find the same phrase That Jesus spoke of before expire feeling separate from the Father of of he weighed all the sins of and the world just that earned him death (cf.. Matthew 27:46).
25 No bones would have been broken]].
In Exodus 24:46 The lamb must be eaten in a single house; not you will bring nothing of her the meat out of home and not they break a bone. and Numbers 9:12 not I will leave any of it until the morning and not nor break a bone. The celebrated according to all the ordinances of the Passover.
Among other instructions relating to Easter we find the prescription of eat lamb without breaking any bones. Now we know That the Passover in addition to remember the passage (from the meaning of the word 'Easter') from slavery to freedom in Israel also prefigured the atoning sacrifice of the promised Messiah. The Roman soldiers came - as it was in use - for break his bones of the legs and hasten death because it was for starting on Saturday they found him already dead and not touched him except pierce his side with for a spear make sure of once death (cf.. John 19:36 That in fact cites the two passages of the Old Testament mentioned above).
26. not would suffer the decomposition of the death]].
We read in Psalm 16:10: "Why do you not leave my soul in Sheol (= grave) and not That wilt your SANTO see corruption" (ND).
In Acts 2: 2731 / Acts 13: 35-37 apply this passage to the resurrection of Christ whose body not suffered the physical consequences of death.
27 The Ascension]].
In Psalm 24: 7-10. 7 O gates lift up your pediments; and ye everlasting doors stand up; and the King of glory shall come. 8 Who is this King of glory? is the LORD strong and powerful
the LORD mighty in battle. 9 Oh doors lift up your pediments;
stand up O everlasting doors and the King of glory shall come. 10 Who is this King of glory? is the LORD of hosts; he is the King of glory. [Pause]
Psalm 68:18 we find foretold the ascension of Christ to heaven after his resurrection.
Psalm 68:18 Thou hast ascended on high leading prisoners have you received gifts from men even from the rebels for to here your dwelling O LORD God. Psalm 68:18 Thou hast ascended on high you've done captivity captive thou hast received gifts among men even among the rebels so that you O LORD God might dwell there. (see. Acts 1: 9 / Ephesians 4: 7-8).

=====================
332 Messianic prophecies of the Old Testament.
Introduction: for be able to deal in particular of the Messianic prophecy must be stated first some considerations on the formation of the Old Testament (AT) and on her transmission up to us.
The OT was written in a space of overruling the time 1100 years; ie from the time of Moses 1500 BC (BC) approximately until the time of the prophet Malachi 420 BC about.
Reading the AT arouse deep feeling and desire the ardent expectation of an the future Savior the Anointed One the Messiah (= the king consecrated the sacred anointing) That should eliminate the problems of background of humanity and in everlasting righteousness. This promised Messiah is described in every detail in the writings of the AT. But surprise find in many books of the AT statements concerning an "suffering Messiah" That had to be hated rejected and killed in cruel way from his the same people while he would suffer for the sins of a lot of. On the other hand the Old Testament speaks of an 'triumphant Messiah "That to her coming must establish an glorious reign of peace for the whole world. The apparent paradox is of easy solution if you think That these two different descriptions illustrate two appearances of the same Messiah but concern for different events different times.
The prophecies of 'triumphant Messiah "still concern the future; while those of 'suffering Messiah "had already past their full performance.
It is in this respect of most of 330 prophecies very accurate and truly differentiated. in the following pages will be conclusively demonstrated and on historical grounds That these prophecies are literally fulfilled in Jesus of Annunciation Nazareth historical character. But first he has to be exposed as be truly impossible That these prophecies are included in falsifications later period.
In the years 1947 and following were discovered in numerous caves of Qumran on the Dead Sea Biblical manuscripts That raised in unspeakable wonder all over the world. These manuscripts That in part dating back to the years preceding the Christian era contain all the books of the AT with the exception of the book of Esther. Since a large part of is located in the Messianic prophecies book of seer Isaiah the discovery of an full roll of this prophet took the utmost importance. The text is written on parchment of of leather goat in not Jewish vocalized. The roll consists of 15 pieces of skin sewn together is long and 7.34 meters 26 centimeters wide. On his extraordinary degree of conservation is really stunning.
Professor Andre Lamorte writes to purpose of the age of this text: "The complete scroll of Isaiah is now considered and finally copied the first of the Christian era. The opinions of the experts of the subject dating vary generally between the beginning of and the 1st century the end of the 2nd century BC "1
Since all of the messianic prophecies of a book of Isaiah found in this roll is absolutely impossible to doubt of their genuineness.
Now this scroll is located in possession of the young State of Israel. It was also photographed size and published for in full. Therefore in this form is now available for all interested parties in a book "Scrolls from Qumran Cave I" [2].
The genuineness of the Messianic prophecies in the other books of the AT it can also be demonstrated with the manuscripts of the Dead Sea. Frank Moore Cross writes in his book "The ancient library of and Qumran biblical science" That by the discovery of the manuscripts Qumran makes it impossible to believe an any book of the prophets of the front or rear (to say nothing of all of the Pentateuch) later wrote of the early years of 2nd century aC3. Front of the prophets are part of the books of Joshua Judges 1 and 2 and Samuel and 1 2 Re; rear of the books of the prophets Isaiah Jeremiah Ezekiel Hosea Joel Amos Obadiah Jonah Micah Nahum Habakkuk Haggai Zechariah and Malachi. The Pentateuch includes the five books of Moses. with what appears in glaring That way no step of these books can still be put in no doubt. As in will be recalled later also many Messianic prophecies contained in the Psalms must be drawn particular attention on the discovery of manuscript of an Psalter dating from the 2nd century BC [4]
Of the book are the prophet Daniel came to light numerous fragments. for half of the palaeography an the manuscript of the cave is IV Been dated to the end of 2nd century BC [4 °]
1. not messianic prophecies are found only in the prophets but also in the Law of Moses and in other writings of the AT.
2 There must be a difference between the prophecies which: a) God speaks of his the Messiah; b) men speak of the Messiah or c) talk about the Messiah himself.
3 Many prophecies of the AT are written not only over time but also the future using the past perfect or remote for thus accentuating the security of the Fulfillment of these prophecies. It is exactly of so-called "prophetic perfect." This expression is an "terminus technicus" particular to the Hebrew grammar. [9 °]
4 The "suffering Messiah" and the "triumphant Messiah" can be found in an and only the same step of the AT.
5 The author of the Messianic prophecy is Yahweh the God of the Bible. On his That name means HE AND 'THE ETERNAL ONE That or not MUTA. It is therefore always of the designation of the Being for and excellence in absolute sense. He not is subject to the changes of the past present and future so he could with the her foreknowledge of or things to come to introduce the future to his prophets so infallible.
The free will and the freedom of the decision of the man and to her correlative responsibility not to be excluded because of the messianic prophecy not because Yahweh the HAS predestined but only preconosciute. So the Bible speaks of the "prognosis" of God (see 1 Peter 1: 2 and also Romans 8:29) that is of the foreknowledge of the foreknowledge of God.
6 The [New Testament] That show by means of the Messianic prophecy can be "proven" in the true sense of the word That of Jesus Nazareth is the Messiah foretold. In Acts 9:22 is said of Paul and in of the Acts of the Apostles 18:28 Apollo That they have applied to Jews this kind of demonstration of the Christian faith. in the first case is used the original text the word "symbibazo" and in accordance with the word "deiknymi." "Symbibazo" means a demonstration by logical conclusions drawn from a quantity of material brought to demonstrations. "Deiknymi" means a test done with a clear and exposure clear the grounds of demonstration.
It can never be emphasized enough That no religion other than Christianity Biblical knows an this kind of conclusive proof!
======================
First chapter]
[The time of the coming of Messiah: The weeks of years the prophet Daniel.
The ninth chapter of prophet Daniel is of great importance for the Bible prophecy. in that chapter was named the exact moment of the coming of Messiah of the Anointed One as Chief.
The meaning of the expression "weeks of years"
The word "Shabua 'used in corresponds exactly to the Hebrew word" Eptade. "It designates a "composition of seven" or a "unit of seven."
In the context of Daniel 9 the word "Shabua" That otherwise also indicates a week of seven days it can only have the meaning of a "Eptade of years."
For the Jews of AT count weeks years or not was not new. Already in the Law of Moses God commanded the people of Israel of counting with an cycle of weeks of years. Every seven years the land was to be left uncultivated and every seven times seven years was to be celebrated on the feast of Jubilee (see Leviticus 25: 1-7 8-13).
Historical background].
In the year 606 B.C. and following the king Nebuchadnezzar brought the Jews into captivity to Babylon. Jerusalem the magnificent city was completely destroyed the temple of God and the palaces were razed or burned (see 2 Chronicles 36).
The exile of the Jews lasted seventy years as Jeremiah had foretold (Jeremiah 25: 11-12). Daniel found himself among the captives and then as well worked in this time as prophet.
The date of the decree of the rebuilding of Jerusalem.
From the first verse of the ninth chapter of Daniele is That the following prophecy in view of Messiah dates from the year 536 BC (The year of kingdom of king of the Medes Darius son of Ahasuerus (= approx 536 BC) an then in time when Jerusalem lay destroyed.
In verses 25 and 26 we read: "Know therefore and you mean! From the moment that is out of order and to restore rebuild Jerusalem until the appearance of an Anointed (Messiah) of an Chief you are and seven weeks 62 weeks. It will be restored and rebuilt and squares walls but troublesome times. After 62 weeks an Anointed One will be cut off but not for him. and the people of the prince That will destroy the city and the sanctuary... "(Version in Elberfeld Germany and Diodati other).
When the Romans in the year 70 A.D. put an end to the Jewish state he smashed the national identity of the tribe of Judah. Judah also lost the political leadership. Consequently the Messiah must have come before of that year. Jesus Has actually made her in appearance about 40 years before Israel!
In addition to
We also noted to Title complementary about the Babylonian captivity of Judah That then the national identity of not Judah s' was wrecked as this tribe was in an sense only moved geographically as nation. Ezekiel 8: 1 and 20: 1 is obtained That also in the time Judah was a political leader. The tribe came simply from that moment under foreign rule.
=======================
Second chapter. And descent origin of Messiah].
1. his family tree
Since about the year AD 70 (!) Was at least normal cases possible for every Jew of birth of go back with precision along his family tree since 1 Chronicles 9: 1 That testifies to all the people Israel was logged in genealogical tables. The possession of such a table was of personal interest eminent not as those who could prove thus her not lineage was recognized as an Israelite That fact involved a number of disadvantages (see Ezra 2: 59-62 and Nehemiah 7: 61-65).
When someone took in Israel a public position and with this was also to be known That was natural became known to her genealogical table or at least some well-known ascendants it reported. If someone whose genealogical chart not he was absolutely irreproachable he wanted to take a public position it would have been immediately rejected as incompetent.
These statements are preliminary very important in view of That fact in the Old Testament was prophesied to That some people the Messiah would be an their direct descendant.
The genealogical tables in the gospels of Matthew and Luke
In Matthew 1 is transmitted the genealogical table of Joseph the foster father of Jesus and in Luke 3 that of Mary the mother of Jesus. Latter table is of great importance for the 'further treatment.
Here is the table concerning Mary from Luke 3: 23-3816: "And Jesus when he also began to teach was about thirty years and was the son as credevasi of Joseph of Heli (father of Mary ) of Matthat of Levi of Melchi of Jannai of Joseph of Mattathias of Amos of Naum of Esli of Naggai of Maath of Mattathias of Semein of Josech of Joda of Joanan of Rhesa of Zerubbabel of Salathiel of Blacks of Melchi of Addi of Cosam of Elmadan of er of Jesus of Eliezer of Jorim of Matthat of Levi of Simeon of Judas of Joseph of Jonam of Eliakim of Melea of Menna of Mattatha of Nathan of David of Jesse of Jobed of Boos of Hall of Nahshon of Amminadab of Admin of Arni of Esrom of Fares of Judas of Jacob Isaac Abraham of Tara of Nahor of Seruch of Ragau of Falek of Eber of Hall of Cainan of Arphaxad of Sem of Noah of Lamech of Methuselah of Enoch of Jaret of Maleleel of Cainan of Enos of Seth of Adam of God. "
Promises of God to Abraham Isaac and Jacob]
Around 1920 BC God promised Abraham many times That the Messiah would be an his descending. in Genesis 22:18 we read for example: "... and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in thy seed."
Originate in the text reads "in your seed"; this is descendant the Messiah because of he is called in the [New Testament] that he will be a blessing for all the nations (Galatians 3:16).
Around 1900 BC God promised many times That the Messiah would be an descendant of Isaac.
In Genesis 26: 4 for example God said to Isaac "... all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in thy seed."
Genesis 28:14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth and you shall spread abroad to the west and to the east to and north to noon. and be blessed for and you for your descendants all the nations of the earth. was promised by God around 1760 B.C. to Jacob That he received in followed by the name of and Israel he was confirmed That the Messiah would be an his descending. Then around 1760 B.C. That had already been clearly revealed the Messiah would be an Jew. But which of these 12 tribes of Israel had to come?
The Messiah comes from the tribe of Judah].
Around 1690 BC the patriarch Jacob told his twelve sons That one in the future would have happened to their descendants. to his son Judah said "The scepter shall not will be removed from Judah nor a stick of control of between his feet until he comes He That will give the rest (in Hebrew Schilo) and to which obey peoples. "(Genesis 49:10)
The Messiah will be an descendant of Judas and not of Benjamin Joseph Naphtali Asher Gad Issachar Zebulun Levi Simeon and Reuben. 1 Chronicles 5: 2 (about 530 BC) says the same thing but with other words: "Judas was is true the prevalence among his brothers and from him and went down to the prince."
(The word prince [in Hebrew "Nagid '] is the same as that used in Daniel 9:25.)
But which family of Judah shall come the Messiah?
The Messiah descends from the family of Jesse].
In chapter 11: 1 the prophet Isaiah answers to the above question: "Then an branch out of the stem of Jesse and an offspring shall grow out of his roots."
(In Targum Jonathan Ben Uzziel14 this step is intended as messianic as is Been added the title "Messiah" as of ucidazione!)
That with what is asserted the Messiah will come from the family of the Jesse Bethlemite. But Jesse had eight sons (see 1 Samuel 16). Of those they would have been the ancestor of Messiah?
The Messiah is an a descendant of David].
At several points of the AT That being said the Messiah will be an son of David the son of Isai. Around 600 BC announced in Jeremiah 23: 5 (see 33:15): "Behold the days come saith the LORD that I will raise to David an righteous who will... and reason justice country. "
In Psalm 132: 11 is written "The Lord Has made to David of this oath truth" and not I will withdraw "I will set upon your throne n the result of your insides." God YHWH had pledged an oath to David (see also Psalm 88: 35-36 35 not violate my covenant not I will turn my promise. Has 36 on my holiness juror for once always of course not to lie to you David.) That the Messiah would be an a direct descendant of King David.
The confirmation of the genealogical table of Maria].
All these people are in the genealogical table of Mary mother of Jesus. With it is confirmed that even these prophecies found Fulfillment in Jesus of the story.
In Jewish people the her descent was made known publicly so it was called "Son of David" (see Luke 18: 38-39 Matthew 21: 915; 9:27 also 15:22). If not everything he had basis in reality the leaders of Judaism of that time they could make use of it as argument against the messianic claim of Jesus. However an did not so easily verifiable could be denied or challenged.
The historian Luke].
Since the genealogical table of Jesus is was handed down by Luke we must also say That Has archeology confirmed Luca as historical trusted accurate and precisely. The famous archaeologist William Ramsay Has That written the representation of the story is made by Luca unsurpassed for the her trustworthiness. A recapitulation of his judgment of Luke gained after a long period of investigation is reported in the book "The Bearing of Recent Discovery" p. 222.
==========================
2 The birthplace of Messiah [Prophecy of seer Micah].
The 8th century BC Micah Moresheth worked as prophet (see Micah 1: 1). He had to make known the birthplace of Messiah. in Chapter 5: 1 God says: "But you O Bethlehem Ephrathah for small to be among the thousands of Judah from you shall come forth for me one That will be ruler over Israel whose origins date back to ancient times from everlasting. "
In Palestine there were two cities under the name of Bethlehem one in Galilee (see Joshua 19: 15-16) and in one Judea. for distinguish the latter was called Bethlehem Ephratah.
The Messiah was to be born in this village to place an little 'more of 10 km to south of Jerusalem and That at the time of Jesus must have had less of 1000 inhabitants. The prophet Micah says it clearly and with many centuries before the safety of the fulfillment.
Of Confirmation [the New Testament]
In the [New Testament] That is confirmed Jesus was born in Bethlehem Ephratah. Matthew 2: 1 writes: "Now when Jesus was born Bethlehem of Judah in the days of King Herod..."
The physician Luke confirms this fact well in the 2nd chapter of his gospel. Consider in this link to what is Been written in chapter "The historian Luke"!
Micah 5: 1 is always well understood. Micah 5: 1. and you of Bethlehem Ephrata
for so little to be among the clans of Judah from you shall come forth for me one That to be ruler in Israel; its origins are from old from ancient days.
When Herod the Great learned That was born an the new king gathered all the chief priests and the scribes for to know what was the birthplace of Messiah. They answered him "In Bethlehem of Judah for thus it is written for half of a prophet." (Matthew 2: 5)
Not only for the learned it was clear this point but also for the people of people That according to John 7: 41-42 say: "But is perhaps from Galilee That is the Christ (the Messiah)? Scripture not HAS she said That the Christ cometh of the seed of David and from Bethlehem the village where David was? "
Further evidence That Micah 5: 1 was well understood is supplied by the translators of the Septuagint in which this verse was played so well That That it may be concluded including the translator much exactly what That in turned greek.
Micah 5 in Targum Jonathan.
The Targum Jonathan Ben Uzziel on the Prophets [14] also shows very clearly the Messianic interpretation That you gave to this step Judaism. for clearly the title "Messiah" there is which is placed directly in the text.
3 Jesus the Nazarene].
In the [New Testament] Jesus is said 18 times "Nazarene". This name comes from the Hebrew "Nezer" That means' branch '' sprout '' Branch shall. "
Among the contemporary people in the years 29-32 AD Jesus was generally known by the name of "Jesus of Nazareth." And 'That note so they called him even his greatest enemies (see John 18: 5-7). That so was fulfilled what the prophets had announced That he would be called "Bud" "Scion" "Branch shall."
The statements of the prophets Zechariah Jeremiah and Isaiah.
The prophet Zechariah (6:12) announced to the 520 BC the following about the Messiah: "Thus saith the LORD of hosts Behold an man That HAS the name Bud."
"Behold I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH." (3: 8) (These two steps of Zechariah are as indicated in the messianic Targum Jonathan. [14]
Jeremiah (23: 5) announced the first of nearly 80 years Zechariah: "Behold the days come saith the LORD that I will raise to David an righteous Branch who shall execute judgment and... Justice country. "Even the prophet Isaiah (4: 2) appointed him the Messiah in this way:" in that day the bud of the Lord will be the splendor and the glory. "
A game of the Hebrew words.
Although in the above-mentioned steps is used in the word jew "Zamach" ("Bud" "Branch" "Branch shall") That every Jew knew the Scriptures hearing of Jesus "the Nazarene" not could to less of connect the name "Nazarene" with the word "Zamach" of the aforementioned steps. The meanings of the names in the Bible have a great importance!
In the Old Testament there are also other references to the "Nazarene". in Isaiah 11: 1 reads for example: "Then an branch out of the stem of Jesse and an offspring shall grow out of his roots." the word used for the original text "Scion" is "Nezer "!
A question justified.
But now you have to wonder why not because Jesus was never called Bethlemite but only "Jesus of Nazareth" although he was born to Bethlehem.
The following hints should clarify as things are. When the terrible and cruel King Herod called the Great ordered the slaughter of the innocents (see Matthew 2) Joseph and Mary fled with the child in Egypt. After the death of Herod they returned and wanted to recover Bethlehem. But when Joseph learned That Archelaus the most cruel of the sons of Herod the Great [17] was to head of the Judea (actually it was for this kingdom to Herod Antipas the brother of Archelaus but an fit of rage Herod the Great just before of the her death she had changed the Old Testament and Archelaus in place place of Herod Antipas [18] Joseph s'intimorì and not he went there again.
So Joseph and Mary with the child Jesus went into the region of Galilee and established themselves to Nazareth. Jesus lived there for about 28 years. for this is why it was said "Jesus of Nazareth."
It 'amazing to see as the political situation has played an important part in the fulfillment of this messianic prediction.
Even today and often just by his critics Jesus is called "the Nazarene" or "Jesus of Nazareth ' so that the prophecy That the Messiah would be called" the Nazarene "is yet to be confirmed by his own enemies.
4 From Egypt].
What seems somewhat paradoxical when one sees That in the 8th century BC God did herald the prophet Hosea That the Messiah would come from Egypt. in Hosea 11: 1 reads: "And out of Egypt I called my son." in Matthew 2 you can read the Fulfillment of this prophecy.
Mary and Joseph That had fled Egypt following the order issued by Herod of kill small children of Bethlehem in the returned of again the land of Israel after the death of this ruler. So the Messiah actually came from Egypt.
Now everything seems clear: the prophets are expressed with all a lot of precision. The Messiah was to be born in Bethlehem in was to be called "Nazarene" and being called in the homeland of Egypt!
Third Chapter: Public presentation of Messiah (29-32 AD)
The precursor 1. The announcement of the prophets Malachi and Isaiah.
In the third chapter of prophet Malachi 3: 1 one hears the voice of the Messiah when he says:
"Behold I will send my messenger; and he shall prepare the way before to me. "
That just before the Messiah did the her appearance had to rise an prophet which would prepare the people of the imminent arrival of Messiah.
Isaiah also speaks of this precursor. He calls it "a voice of one That cries in desert." Isaiah 40: 3 19: "The voice of one crying: Prepare in the desert the way of the Lord."
In Luke 3: 4 reads: "And 'written in a book of the words of prophet Isaiah: There is a voice of one That cries in desert..." So Isaiah That does know this precursor will be desert detail not spoken through the prophet Malachi.
The function of precursor].
This precursor had the task of preparing the people of Israel in the next coming of Messiah in That way welcome him with willing heart. in the heart of this people not there must be nothing That could prove to be an impediment to the reception of promised Messiah; in fact his heart there had to be the "ways of Shrine" ("your ways" according to another version of this Psalm 84: 5). So in Isaiah 40: 4-5 is also said: "Every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill made low; places are steep holyllati the rough places become plain. Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and of all flesh for an shall see it. "
The announcement of this precursor found the his perfect in Fulfillment John the Baptist the son of Zechariah. The her the apparition took place about 29 A.D. That Luke writes he appeared in 15 years of reign of the Emperor Tiberius (Luke 3: 1).
From 450 years no other prophet].
The appearance of John the Baptist caused a sensation not because almost 450 years was born in Israel no other prophet (the last prophet of the Old Testament was Malachi). in a historical testimony of intertestamental period lasted 450 years is an lament the lack of prophets in Israel. in 1 Maccabees 9:27 we read: "There was great tribulation in Israel as not occurred since among them were missing the prophets." The Babylonian Talmud in the preparation refers That after the last prophets Haggai Zechariah and Malachi the Holy Spirit had departed from Israel.
How great was the sensation caused by the appearance of John the Baptist it can be seen from the fact That Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region running along the Jordan came to him (Matthew 3: 5).
The activity of John the Baptist].
John was baptizing in the desert and preached the baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. Making use of an language and hugely impressive shocking made him realize the people of Israel that the Messiah would come shortly and That everyone had to convert that is confess their sins to the living God repentance and to be suffer ready to meet the promised Messiah. But if not had accepted the Messiah and not they would repent not they could escape the wrath of fortune God. See in about the various reports on the occurrence of the gospels John the Baptist of the desert Judea (Matthew 3 Mark 1 and Luke 3 John 1).
It presents Jesus].
That is told in Matthew 3:13 Jesus also came for to be baptized by John when the latter was preaching at the Jordan. This agrees with Isaiah 40: 5 where we read: "And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh an shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD has said. "
Jesus the Messiah the complexion of Yahweh AT began her activities immediately after the appearance in public scene of John the Baptist. to this way Isaiah speaks of the appearance of our Lord Jesus as of the "glory of the Lord revealed." And 'interesting to know about the allegations of an eyewitness. The disciple John testifies of the following Lord Jesus "full of grace and of truth we beheld her glory glory as one of the only begotten of the Father." (John 1: 14)
John the Baptist and Josephus].
That the historian Josephus he lived in 1st century AD confirms the historicity of John the Baptist in her the work "Antiquitates judaicae" (XVIII 5.2).
2 The activity of the public the Messiah].
The place of the appearance. When the Jew of the AT wanted to know what region or area of the country would start the Messiah his public service he had to read Isaiah 8: 23-9: 1: "But not the darkness they will last forever for the land which is now in anguish. as in times past God covered reproach of the country Zebulun and the land of Naphtali so in times of future cover the glory land close to the sea of beyond the Jordan Galilee of the Gentiles. That the people walked in darkness have seen a great light; That on those living in the land of the shadow of the death the light shines. "
Clarifying remarks of the previous steps The expression "great light" means that That the sun radiates (see Genesis 1:16). Here is such an expression used for the Messiah That in Malachi 4: 2 is said "the sun of justice" and in John 8:12 "the light of the world." He was to shine in the darkness of spiritual Israel as an the rising sun. That is derived from Isaiah the inhabitants of and Zebulun of Naphtali by the Sea of Tiberias (also called Lake of Gennesaret Sea of Galilee) for they would have seen this first light and therefore it would be covered of glory. After these observations on Isaiah is clear That the Messiah would start his the public service in the region of Galilee.
The confirmation given by [the New Testament].
In Matthew 4: 12 to 14.17 is written: "Now when Jesus had heard That John was put in prison he withdrew into Galilee. And leaving Nazareth he came and dwelt in Capernaum a city on the sea (said of or of Tiberias Galilee) to the borders of and Zebulun of Naphtali... From that time Jesus began to preach and to say Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is near. "
The same thing is also confirmed in Luke 23: 5 (see also Matthew 4: 18-25).
The miracles of the Messiah].
In several passages of the AT is asserted with That force to the appearance of Messiah there would be miracles. in Isaiah 35: 4-6 reads: "Say to those That have a fearful heart Be strong do not be afraid! Behold your God will come! He will come to to save you. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened and will be the ears of the deaf unstopped; then will the lame leap as an and deer the language of mute will sing of joy. "
In Isaiah 29:24 is prophesied still an another miracle: "The backsliding of spirit will learn salvation."
So through the Messiah will be cleaned up lame blind deaf dumb and of erring spirit.
The Fulfillment of prophecies confirmed by the [New Testament]
In the [New Testament] is confirmed with as clearly as possible That these and other miracles are were made by the Lord Jesus. For example in John 9 is an healed blind in Mark 2: 3-12 an paralytic in Matthew 15: 29-31 an and dumb in Mark 7: 31-37 an dull. for That the concerns of the erring spirit not you can think of moody Matthew 4:24 That too was healed?
The Fulfillment confirmed by Josephus].
The Fulfillment of these prophecies not it is confirmed only by the writings of [the New Testament] but also from other historical sources. The Jewish historian Josephus writes of in her new opera 'Antiquitates judaicae "published in the year 93 AD the following interesting reference to the Lord Jesus:" In that time (ie at the time of Pilate 26-36 AD ) Jesus appeared to him an wise man That miracle worker performed many miraculous works and was an teacher for the men That gladly accepted the truth. "[20]
The authenticity of quote of Flavio].
Here we are in possession of a confirmation truly amazing That Has the Lord Jesus performed miracles brought about by an Jew lived in the 1st century and That not was not even a Christian. This step was put in questioned by various critics as "Christian interpolation back." for to be precise from the point of view of criticism of texts (ie examination of old manuscripts handed down) not it seems justified to even the slightest doubt about to such a forgery.
There is to add the interesting finding That Eusebius (263-339) Has known this step because it brings him twice in his writings. Once in the "History of Church» I and 12 once in the "Demonstratio Evangelica" III 5.
There is also to be noted that among others Dr. H. St. John Thackeray one of the most important scholars of English issues relating to Josephus HAS of That newly established this step shows certain linguistic peculiarities That macaws characteristics of Josephus!
The miracles are confirmed by the Talmud].
In the Babylonian Talmud (Tractate Sanhedrin 43a) is admitted That in Israel are in fact the successes of the miracles worked by the Lord Jesus. Yet it is spoken in a blasphemous way of describing them magical operations (see Matthew 24:24).
The testimony of Justin Martyr].
Further confirmation of the miracles of Lord Jesus is found in Justin Martyr (who died around 165 AD). in his "Dialogus cum Tryphoni Judeo" chapter 69 Justin is to speak of the reproaches of the Jews to the Lord Jesus. mention That he will is called the Lord Jesus magician ("Magos") and even traviatore of people ("Laoplanos").
The testimony of Origen].
A further document almost the same content is at Origen (185-254 AD) That he speaks in his wrote "Contra Celsum» 1.28. Origen refers to you one written by an anti-Christian compiled certain Celso towards 178 AD
Psalm 72]. Again Psalm 72: 12-13 as of rest well in many other passages of AT we speak of the public activity of Messiah. There is written:
"For he will deliver the needy That cries and the poor That not HAS those who aid. He will have compassion of and unhappy of needy and shall save the souls of the poor. "
That the needy cries].
In Luke 18: 35-43 is written: "That came to pass as he drew near to Jericho an certain blind man sat by the way side begging; and hearing the crowd That passing That asked what it was. and That they told him Jesus of Nazareth was passing. Then he cried out Jesus son of David have mercy of me! and That those preceded rebuked him for quiet; but he cried the more Son of David have mercy of me! and Jesus stopped and commanded That he had brought him; and when he was come near he asked him: that wilt thou have me do for you? And he said Lord that I may receive my sight. and Jesus said to him: Retrieve the view; thy faith hath made thee whole. and in that moment he received his sight and followed him glorifying God; and all the people saw it gave praise to God. "
That the poor not HAS those who aid].
The invocation of "That poor not HAS those who aid 'is eg. In John 5 where it speaks of an That man was sick already for 38 years and although he had speak of not have none That assist him. He too was healed by Jesus.
Of compassion and unhappy of needy].
Luke 13:10 and following tells of of compassion for the Messiah an be unhappy or weak as can also be translated the Hebrew word of Psalm 72 Compassion for an poor or for an beggar is eg. well described in John 9 (see verse 8).
The Prophet].
Having now written of some of works of Messiah we want to deal briefly of words spoken by the Messiah. in Deuteronomy 18 Moses announced as the Messiah a prophet. This step was always well understood as messianic prophecy That among other things result from the findings of Qumran in which speaks of this coming Messiah. Here is the text of Deuteronomy 18: 15.17-19: "The Lord your God will raise up an as prophet me in to the middle you from among your brethren; to that you will listen... and the LORD said unto me What That Han said is good; I will raise them an as prophet you of from among their brethren and I will put my words in her mouth and he will tell them everything That I shall command him. and That will happen if someone not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name I will require it of him. "
The fulfillment].
Jesus Has demonstrated of also be a prophet making predictions about the future which can easily be shown Fulfillment. [21]
To be precise the Hebrew word used for "prophet" not only indicates an predictor of things to come but also in kind who announced the will of God. This is important because from Psalms 39 : 10. Has preached righteousness in the great assembly; see not keep closed lips O Lord thou knowest. That is the Messiah will announce in Israel (the Great Assembly) faithfulness salvation mercy and truth of justice God. Fulfillment of everything is in the Gospels (see eg. the Sermon on the Mount; Matthew
5). Now however raises the question of as you know the people of Israel would react against of his the Messiah.
3 The reaction of the people of Israel toward his the Messiah] One of the greatest paradoxes
The promised Messiah and much desired was to be rejected and hated by his people! So foretold by the prophets and so you actually fulfilled with the Lord Jesus.
In Isaiah 49: 7 is spoken of as the Messiah of 'he that is despised by the men detested by the nation. "
2 " Psalm 69: 4 is heard to complain of the Messiah That hate he was part of the opposite people:" Those That hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; are powerful That those I would like destroyed and That to wrong I are enemies. "
Psalms 40:10. Even in his friend whom I trusted he That ate my bread
up against of me his heel.
In Psalm 109: 3-4 says: "Me from besieged with words of hatred and have made me war without a cause. Instead of love That harbor them I macaws adversaries and I will not That I pray. "
The leaders of the Jewish people despise the Messiah].
In the book of prophet Isaiah is mentioned contempt of Messiah by the heads of the Jewish nation. in Isaiah 53: 2-3 is written:
"He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him nor appearance that we should desire. And despised rejected by men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief equal to the one before which hide their faces he was despised and we not it made no estimate. "
The expression "Ishim" used Hebrew translated here with men means among other things powerful people and on the high condition! 22
The Messiah is stretched traps]
The Messiah says in Psalm 35: 7 "For without cause tense of me from hiding their network without cause they have digged a pit for take my life."
Several times compared comes in [the New Testament] That to the Messiah were part of the thesis pitfalls spiritual guides of and Judaism That you want to grasp do it with leading questions (see Luke 11: 53-54; 14: 1-5; Mark 12: 13-17; see also Luke 6: 7).
Murderous intentions against the Messiah]
In Psalm 31:13 the Messiah for more complains of something worse: "For I have heard the defaming of many fear on every side to me while they will recommend to my detriment and devise of take my life. "
Mark 3 illustrates the performance: "And the Pharisees went forth and straightway took counsel with the Herodians against of he with the aim of kill him." (3: 6)
John 11:53 also confirms the Fulfillment of Psalm 31:13.
rejected the 15 of Nisan 32 A.D.
The Messiah had to be completely rejected by both the populace That by its leaders. as manifested in so impressive in the total rejection the 15th of Nisan 32 AD when Jesus was of opposite to Pilate!
"And Pilate called together the chief priests and the magistrates and the people said unto them Me have ye done this before comparir man as subversive of the people; and behold after having it in looked at your presence not HAS found in any of him of guilt which the accused; and nor yet Herod for he has sent him back to us we and behold he not Has That did nothing is worthy of death. I will therefore chastise him release him. But they shouted all together: It's' dying man and deliver us Barabbas! (Barabbas had been thrown into prison to reason of in a sedition occurred and city of an murder.) And Pilate again spoke to them desiring to release Jesus; but they cried out: Crucify him crucify him! and for the third time he said to them But That evil Has he done? I do not HAS found nothing he That deserves death. I will therefore chastise him release him. But they were urgent with loud voices asking That to be crucified; and their cries for finished have the upper hand. and Pilate decreed That he did what That wondering. "(Luke 23: 13-24)
4 Judas Iscariot].
In the previous chapter we wrote of and enmity of hatred of the people of Israel against the Messiah. But in the Old Testament it comes in especially various points of an determined man of That the people of Israel he will hate the Messiah in an a very special way. Has this person previously announced found his Fulfillment in full Judas Iscariot. These are the steps of such as Psalms 41 55 69 the 109 and Zechariah 11.
Psalm 41].
In Psalm 41: 9 for the Messiah speaks the mouth of David: "Even the man with whom I was living in peace (ie my friend) in which I was confident That ate my bread Has lifted up his heel against of me. "
The friend and the confidant].
This man must therefore be an friend of the Messiah. Judas Iscariot was actually during the nearly three years when he was a disciple of Lord Jesus (see the stories and the gospels Matthew 26:50 where it says "friend"). of this man is also said That the Messiah had confidence in him. not HAS perhaps what was said found his in Fulfilment That done the Lord Jesus entrusted the keeping of the common purse to Judas? (John 12: 6; 13:29).
The bread of the Messiah].
Psalm 41: 9 is of rich details. This enemy had to eat the bread (Hebrew: "Lechem") of Messiah. Therefore this traitor was to receive the Messiah an morsel of bread and eating first of to 'lift the heel "against the Anointed One.
The Fulfillment is found in John 13: 21-30 which describes the last of Easter the Lord Jesus with His disciples:
"Having said these things Jesus was troubled in spirit and so openly expressed: in truth in That truth I tell you one of you shall betray me. The disciples looked at one another standing in of doubt those who spoke. Or to table leaned on the breast of Jesus he was one of his disciples That Jesus loved him Simon Peter therefore motioned to him and said to him Di ' who is one of which he speaks? And he stooped down on the breast of Jesus he asked him 'Lord who is it? Jesus answered and said 'that to which I will give a sop when I have dipped it. and an dipped bite and took it he gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot. and then after the morsel Satan entered into him. for which Jesus said unto him That That do do quickly. But none of the guests understood why he said so. In fact some thought because Judas had the bag That Jesus had said to him: Buy those things That we have need of for the feast; That that is he should give something to the poor. He then having received the sop went out immediately; and it was night. "
Psalm 55].
In Psalm 55: 12-14 the Messiah says: "For not is Been an enemy That to me Has made a reproach; otherwise I would have entailed; not is Been That one I hated to levarmisi against; otherwise I would have hid myself from him; but it was you man That I esteemed as my equal my companion and my intimate friend. We had sweet counsel together together we went upon our way through the crowd to the house of God. "
I trust relationships].
Also in this step the traitor is called "friend" from the Messiah. It is also repeated once again That the Messiah had confidence in him. For almost three years Judas Iscariot was the trusty companion of Lord Jesus together with the other disciples and thus the fulfilled in Psalm 55:14 very precisely:
Go to the house of God].
That is the Gospel accounts Judas Iscariot was often in temple with Jesus and the other disciples. Precisely these occasions often agreed in Temple a great multitude for listen to the speeches of Lord Jesus (see in about eg. Luke 19: 47-21: 38 especially Luke 19: 47-48 in connection with 2045)! So you literally fulfilled also '"together we went upon our way through the crowd to the house of God"!
Reproach].
From Psalm 55: 12-14 That is also this traitor will reproach to the Messiah. not it is here forced to immediately think of the kiss of Judas? not it was an terrible shame when Judas Iscariot gave Jesus the Lord denouncing him with an kiss (see Matthew 26: 47-50)?
It 's true That we often speak of the kiss of Judas but who Has already heard of an greeting of Judah? in Matthew 26:49 we read That Judas greeted Jesus with these words: "Chaire Rabbi!" when betrayed him with an kiss.
Usually this greeting is translated simply "Hail Master." But if you want a literal translation from the greek of this formula greeting it means "Hail Master." That I salute and blasphemous treacherous considering the imminent death terrible and cruel of you Lord Jesus crucified!
The 30 pieces of silver].
In Zechariah 11 (about 520 BC) speaks for the 30 pieces of silver Judas Iscariot who betrayed the Lord Jesus. In verse 12 the Messiah says: "And they weighed for my wages; 30 pieces of silver. "
In Matthew 26: 14-16 he finds the exact Fulfillment: "Then one of the twelve called Judas Iscariot went to the chief and said to them" What will you give me and I will deliver him? And they counted out 30 pieces of silver. and from that time he sought should of betray him. "
The death of traitor: the his office].
Following his betrayal Judas Iscariot committed suicide (Matthew 27: 5). The her the end was foretold in Psalm 109: 8-9: "Let his days be few an let another take his office. Let his children be fatherless and to her his wife a widow. "
Which occupied the office of Judas Iscariot That now had to switch to an other? Luke 6: 13-16 tells us That Judas had received from the Lord Jesus the office of apostle. After the death of Judas Iscariot went to this office an of course Matthias (see Acts 1: 21-26).
Concluding remarks].
A mo 'of the conclusion must be clearly That said not Judas Iscariot was predestined to this Act. God the One That is in forever (Yahweh!) That not is subject to the changes of the past present and future as were exhibited already in the Introduction HAS known before That Judas Iscariot would be handed over to the enemies of the Messiah his own will and therefore could make known to the prophets with many centuries in advance the actions and the intentions of this man.
The fourth chapter. The sentence the execution and the resurrection of Messiah.
1 The sentence
In the previous chapter was treated the paradox of rejection of the promised Messiah as part of the people of Israel. in this will be dealt with some of the prophecies That explained the point of culminantr rejection condemnation and that is the crucifixion of Messiah. in Psalm 69: 4 we hear the voice of the Messiah in his lament "Those That hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; are powerful ones That and I would like to destroy That to wrong I are enemies. "
It was already mentioned the lament of Messiah in Psalm 31:13: "For I have heard the defaming of many fear on every side to me but they are recommended to and my damage devise of take my life. "(see Mark 3: 6 and John 11:53)
Hit of condemnation].
This hatred and this refusal That meant the Messiah promised in the Old Testament were to be sentenced to death. in known chapter of 53 the prophet Isaiah is described with the verb in the perfect prophetic as the Messiah was to be conducted for be condemned: "He was oppressed he humbled himself and not opened his mouth. as the lamb brought him to the slaughter as to the sheep dumb before who the shearer he not he opened his mouth. "(Isaiah 53: 7)
One does not feel perhaps that being said with clarity and evidence in the Gospels? He allowed himself to take away without resistance even voluntarily.
Witnesses unjust].
In Psalm 35: 1112 feels Messiah That he says "unfair witnesses rise up... I make it bad for well..." in Psalm 38:14 expresses the same reality: "I am as an that man not listen and in whose mouth not is replication of kind. "
Perfect Fulfillment of this prophetic word is found in Matthew 26: 59-62: "And the chief priests and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus for him to death; and not found none although they had many false witnesses. Finally two witnesses came forward That said This man HAS said: I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days. and the high priest stood up in the feet he said not You answer nothing? That to testify against them you? But Jesus held his peace. "
In this step appears all her evidence hatred suffered against the Messiah. It had to be murdered to all costs even though he only made them of and well not it could be accused of any wrongdoing.
Maltreatment: in Isaiah 50 is predicted with the way when the Messiah will be discussed in this session of the court: "I HAS my back to who smote me and my cheeks to who I pull out the beard; I will not HAS and hid not my face from shame spitting. "(Isaiah 50: 6)
Matthew 26: 66-67 describes the performance: "And they answered and said It 'guilty of death. Then did they spit in and face gave him his fists; and others slapped him. "
The prophet Micah makes known details of this session court: "They strike with the rod of his cheek judge of Israel (ie of Messiah)" (Micah 4:14)
Matthew 27:30 describes its fulfillment: "And they spit upon him and took the reed and struck him on the head."
The scourging].
John 19: 1 says "So then Pilate took Jesus and scourged him."
Reading of this scene of flagellation you should know That flagella then used by the Romans were strips of leather attached to an and handle bringing the end of pieces sharp metal stones and even snaps That tearing of the flesh and scourged the bleeding reduced to a shapeless mass. in Psalm 129: 3 speaks prophetically of the Messiah her flagellation: "Of the ploughmen plowed upon my back delightsomely tracing their furrows long."
The crown of thorns].
In Matthew 27:29 is That said the Lord Jesus was placed upon her head a crown of thorns. It was of thorns That could reach 5-8 inches. Dried were tough and acuminate as needles. If to someone was imposed on the head like a crown of thorns the skin was torn in it countless points rose up in great pain blood dripping abundant hair was matted and it hung in disorder. A show highly disturbing! Now you understand the words of Isaiah 52:14 with which centuries earlier had testified of God his the Messiah: "How many seeing him were dismayed son was so undid his so as not countenance an opinion more man and on his so as to not look more than an opinion son of man. "
2 The crucifixion].
In Psalm 22 an Psalm of David was described in minute detail the crucifixion of Messiah a thousand years before That the fact happen. The crucifixion itself not had never been the kind of with conviction that the Jews punished an malefactor (the Jews stoned often the transgressors; see eg. Leviticus 20: 2 and other steps). The execution by crucifixion was practiced only centuries after the writing of Psalm 22 first by the Romans.
On the Jewish side Psalm 22 was interpreted as messianic book Pegista Rabbati. The pain you are understood as pain scapegoats! 22a.
We follow in the Psalm the word: "To the chief Musician. On Cerva of aurora. Psalm of David.
(1) My God my God why hast thou forsaken me? Why are you away without succor without listening to the words of my groaning? (2) My God I cry out of day and you not answer; of night again and not HAS posing no. And yet you are the HOLY YHWH That sit on the praises of Israel. Our fathers trusted in you; and trusted thou didst deliver them. They cried to you and they were saved; confided in you and not they were confused.
(6) But I are an worm and not an man; a reproach of men and of the despised the people.
Everyone who sees me mocks of me; stretches the lip shaking his head saying: Ei gets back in the Lord; let Him deliver him; rescue him because He delights!
Yes you're the one That took me from the womb; have made me riposar trusting the breasts of my mother. to I was cast upon thee from my birth you are my God from the womb of my mother. not you turn away from me for trouble is close and not is none That help me. Many bulls have surrounded me strong bulls of Bashan surrounded me; to open their mouths wide against me as an and ravening roaring. (14) as I am That water spreads and all my bones are out; my heart is as the wax is melted in the midst of my bowels. (15) My strength is dried up as terra cotta and my tongue clings to the palate; you lay me in the dust of death. (16) For dogs have surrounded me; a bevy of criminals surrounded me; they pierced my hands and the feet. I can count all my bones. And they look at me look at me; (18) divide my garments among them and to throw cast lots for my garment. Thou therefore O LORD not walk away That you you're my strength make haste to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword my only one out of the paw of lion. You will answer me from the horns of the buffalo. I will declare your name to my brethren and praise you in among the congregation. O ye That fear the LORD praise him! Glorify you all the seed of Jacob and all ye the seed of Israel the fear of you him! Because he not HAS despised nor abhorred the affliction of distressed and not HAS hid her face from him; but when HAS cried to him he heard him. You are the subject of my praise in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows in the presence of those That I fear. The meek shall eat and will be satisfied; That those seek the LORD will praise him; their hearts shall live forever. All the ends of the earth will remember of and Lord will be converted to him; and all the families of nations will worship in thy presence. Because the Lord belongs the kingdom and he lords it over the nations. All the earth shall eat and opulent worship; That all those and go down into the dust not can remain in life to bow down before him. Posterity will serve him; you speak of Lord to the next generation. And they shall come shall declare her justice and to the people That as yet unborn Has he operated. "Hands and feet pierced. in verse 16 the Messiah says: "For dogs have surrounded me; a bevy of criminals surrounded me they pierced my hands and the feet. "
The expression "Dogs" was used to designate the not the Jews (see Matthew 15: 21-28). [23] It was to be an of the group not Jews a band of foreign That forerebbe the Messiah and the hands feet [24] ie That crucify him.
Matthew 27: 27-31 confirms this fact with very clearly: "Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into hall and gathered to him the whole band. and they stripped him and put him an scarlet cloak; and platted a crown of thorns they put it on his head and a reed in his right hand; and to knee before him and mocked him saying Hail King of the Jews! and spit on him and took the reed and struck him on the head. and after they had mocked him they stripped him of mantle and clothed him of his garments; for then they led him away crucify him. "
Clothes and divided drawn].
Is in verse 18 said of these not Jews That first divide the clothes of Messiah and then throw the lot on her gown. Even these details have found the precise fulfillment: "Then the soldiers when they had crucified Jesus took his garments and made four parts a part for each soldier and the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam woven for from the top throughout low. They said therefore among themselves not rend to pull to fate those who touch it. "(John 19: 23-24)
Disjointed bones].
In verse 14 the Messiah says: "... and all my bones are out."
Which words and terrible shocking! The limbs That now hang from the nails driven in and hands feet are disconnected from the weight of the body of crucified!
And sweat thirst].
The great affliction and the sweat the thirst of Messiah suffered indescribable suffering are expressed by verses 14 and 15: "I am as That water it spreads... My strength is dried up as terra cotta and my tongue clings to the palate. "
And light darkness].
In verse 2 we speak of intermittent periods of light and of darkness "My God I cry out of day and not you answer: of still night and not HAS no rest."
Mark 15: 25.33-34 shows its fulfillment: "It was the third hour when they crucified him... and when the sixth hour darkness came for all the land until the ninth hour."
Even in Isaiah 50 (as in Psalm 88.1) speaks of this darkness. with closely connected with the condemnation of the Messiah God says in Isaiah 50: 3: "I clothe the heavens of black and I give them an for sackcloth covered."
Confirmation of darkness left by Tallo.
The darkness lasted three hours on the day of crucifixion of Lord
Jesus is also confirmed by sources outside the Bible. The historic Samaritan Tallo That wrote to Rome in the year 52 AD he spoke his now untraceable "Histories." However an their shards [New Testament] or is in Julius Africanus to the first of the third century AD It reads: "Tallo said in the third book of its That the darkness was due to an solar eclipse unreasonably as it seems to me." [25]
The objection of Julius Africanus is very important because really not may have been treated of an solar eclipse since it would not because for three whole hours of and total darkness because then of time the full moon is impossible that occurrence of a total eclipse the sun (the crucifixion took place on the 15th of Nisan 32 AD and towards the middle of this month the moon was full). It needs to be treated of an miracle That though the prophets have predicted as accurately as possible and That can be documented very well with historical sources.
And ridicule shame].
In verses 6-8 the Messiah speaks of and derision mockery of That will have to endure from all sides: "But I are an worm and not an man; a reproach of men and despised by the people. Everyone who sees me mocks of me; stretches the lip shaking his head saying: Ei gets back in the Lord; let Him deliver him; save it because like it! "
The [New Testament] shows in Matthew 27: 39-44 as even this was fulfilled: "And those That of passing there reviled him wagging their heads and saying Thou That destroy the temple and in three days rebuild it save yourself if you are the Son of God and come down of cross! Similarly with the chief priests and the scribes elders mocking said: has and saved others not is able to save himself! By That is the King of Israel descend now of cross and we will believe in him. He trusted in God; let him deliver him now if he should like it because HAS said: I am the Son of God. and in the same way the robbers who were crucified with vituperavano also him. "
Numbered with the transgressors; to her merciful intercession].
Isaiah 53:12 That speaks of the two criminals were crucified with Jesus as well as of the her merciful int [New Testament] for ercessione his tormentors: "He gave himself to death and is Been numbered with the transgressors (or criminals) because he HAS bore the sin of many and HAS interceded for the transgressors. "(See Luke 23: 32-34:" Now two others two criminals were led away with for him be put to death. and when they came to the place called and there they crucified him the criminals one to and right the other to left. and said Jesus Father forgive them for they not they know what that they do! ")
Gall and vinegar].
A further detail of the crucifixion is found in Psalm 69:21 where the crucified Messiah says: "Indeed I have given of gall for food and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to ber of the 'vinegar. "for is in the gall Hebrew" Rosch "and in greek' Chole '. [25a]
That this passage attests the Messiah was first given gall for food and then vinegar for the her thirst. The Fulfillment for the gall (greek: "Chole"!) Offered to the Messiah is found in Matthew 27: 32-35: "Or found an in coming Simon of Cyrene Simon by name and forced him to take the the cross of Jesus. and come to an the place called Golgotha that means: location of Skull they gave him to drink of wine mixed with gall; but not Jesus he wanted to drink. Then after they had crucified him... "
The description of in a way which gave him vinegar to the Messiah is found in Matthew 27: 45-48: "Now from the sixth hour there was darkness for all the land until the ninth hour. and about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice Eli Eli lama sabachthani? that is to say My God my God why hast thou forsaken me? But some of the bystanders hearing it said This man is calling Elijah. and at once an of them ran to take a sponge; and filled it with vinegar and putting it in on a reed and gave him 'a drink. "
The death].
The conclusion of all these unfathomable pain is expressed in Psalm 22:15 where the Messiah prays to his God "You lay me in the dust of death."
In Psalm 31.5 is the last word of the crucified Messiah: "I commit my spirit your hands" (see the respective Fulfilment in Luke 23:46).
In the tomb of an rich].
An important Messianic prophecy is found in Isaiah 53: 9 where it is written: "He had been assigned to the grave with the wicked but in her death he is Been with the rich not because he had done no violence neither v 'had been fraud in her mouth. "
The malefactors were often burned to the west of Jerusalem in of fire Tophet. This then would be the tomb of condemned. But Isaiah 53: 9 That you see not God no one else will outrage after the death of Messiah and That the Messiah from the dead will rest in an rich. The Fulfillment of this prophecy is found in Matthew 27: 57-60: "And when it was evening it was an of a rich man Arimathea named Joseph who had also become a disciple of Jesus. These presented himself to Pilate asked for the body of Jesus. Pilate commanded That the body to be released. and Joseph took the body wrapped it in an net linen cloth and placed him in his own new tomb That had hewn out in the rock and he rolled a great stone to the door of shrine he went away. "
In Hebrew the word "death" of Isaiah 53: 9 is the plural thereby seeking to express the agony of this kind of death. [26]
The duration of the life].
It is also an Old Testament That reference to their ages will the Messiah dying? in Psalm 102: Even an Messianic Psalm Messiah complains praying his God for the fact That must die "I HAS 'Oh my God not take me away in half of the my days "(Psalm 102: 24) the expression" in the midst of my days "is easy to understand if you know the Psalm 90 in which is spoken of short of time of life the man of this land. in verse 10 reads: "The days of our years to come seventy years... and that That their pride not is That and labor vanity; it will soon pass and we fly away there. "
If so the probable duration of the life of an Jew was average of 70 years it is clear that That we mean with the expression "in the midst of my days." Has the Lord Jesus also fulfilled this prophecy since he died to about 36 years. He began his public service when he was approximately 33 years (Luke 3:23) and worked almost three years until her death in cross.
No broken bone].
A prediction is somewhat strange written for the Messiah in Psalm 34:20: "He (Yahweh) preserves all the bones of to him not one of them is broken."
If you compare this prophecy with his fulfillment it seems quite clear. in John 19: 31-33 we read: "Then the Jews because the bodies not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath (because it was the preparation and that day of Saturday was an great day) asked him to Pilate That they fiaccate their legs and they might be taken away. So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and then of the other That was crucified with him; But when they came to Jesus as they saw him already dead not break His legs. "
The exact location of the her death].
The exact spot where the Messiah was to die was already known from the time of Abraham (about 1900 BC).
In Genesis 22: 1-19 describes the history of the sacrifice of Isaac. It took place on an upstream of the land of or of Moriah Moriah (according to another version: Hebrew "Erez hammorijah»! see Genesis 22: 2).
Moriah is the mountain of temple of Jerusalem (cf.. 2 Chronicles 3: 1). Therefore the 'country of Moriah "or of Moriah is simply the region surrounding Jerusalem. Isaac not found his death because as the son of Abraham was only an Typos an the model in view of the Messiah. To the place of sacrifice of Isaac (it was not then of Mount Moriah itself but of a mountain next to it!) Abraham gave the name "Yahweh jireh." (The Lord sees and provides see verse 14 and verses 7-8). That means God would take care of that mount for the real to the victim whose story aims typologically (as an example). Thus Genesis 22: 14b says: "For this we say today: In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen."
Is not perhaps actually died in the country of Moriah our Lord Jesus out of Jerusalem on the hill of Golgotha? (see John 18 + 19; Hebrews 13:12). in thus HAS also fulfilled this prophecy!
The importance of and passion of death of the Messiah].
In order to illustrate the importance of and passion of death of Messiah you must take a few steps back. The Bible states many verses of the AT (eg. In Psalm 14) and of the [New Testament] That all men have sinned without exception. Romans 3:23 says "There is no distinction; For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. "
God however is an and HOLY God infinitely right (Joshua 00:19 Psalm 7:11) and not can in no way tolerate or pass over sin ie all of That is in contradiction with his or her thoughts person (see Habakkuk 1:13). And therefore would have to curse condemn every man. But the Bible also says That God is love (1 John 4: 8) and therefore not and wants to curse condemn anyone even 'That wants all men to be saved "says 1 Timothy 2: 4! So it became necessary to That God found a solution for we can offer to men in according to her and holiness justice and forgiveness of sins eternal salvation. But this was only possible if an perfect man without sin and HOLY YHWH sopportasse as substitute the judgment of God. So God sent his and the Son he did become man Scripture says expressly of That the Lord Jesus he not no sin (1 Peter 2:22) and in [the New Testament] calls him seven times the "Right." When the Lord Jesus was hanging on the cross God took upon him the sins of all those That they believed in and he That still believe. Yes in three hours of darkness he ident the [New Testament] ificò with all these sinners and dumped out of he of all judgment the wrath of God (1 Peter 2:24 2 Corinthians 5:21 Isaiah 53:10). in these three hours completely abandoned God and the Messiah so they had to issue the terrible cry: "My God my God why have you forsaken me?" (Psalm 22: 1 Matthew 27:46) So Jesus the Messiah died (Matthew 27:50) leading to a term the redemptive work (John 19:30)! Now God can give the perfect pardon to every sinner That relies on the Lord Jesus as pent offender [New Testament] ito and converted in confessing praying for their sins (1 John 1: 9); but always according to the blood shed by Jesus on Golgotha (Ephesians 1: 7). We read in Hebrews 9:22 That without shedding of blood is excluding That there can be forgiveness of sins. in this time they found Fulfillment well as the words of Isaiah 53: 3-6: "He was despised and abandoned by men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief equal to the one before whom hide their face. He was despised and we not it made no estimate. And nevertheless That were our diseases he bore and carried our sorrows of those which had been loaded; and we did esteem him stricken smitten by God and afflicted But he is Been wounded to reason of our transgressions bruised to reason of our iniquities; punishment for our peace is Been on him and for with his stripes we are healed. We had all gone astray as sheep each of us we followed the her own way; and the LORD HAS dropped on him the iniquity of us we all. "
3 Reading Isaiah 53].
As Isaiah assumes an place of so much importance in the Messianic prophecy this passage must be considered to part and more to background. Chapters 52: 13-53: 12 can be set to because "The gospel according to Isaiah." The Lord of announced nearly 700 years before Christ through the prophets That the "Hope of Israel" the awaited Messiah would have been inexplicably despised and rejected by his people. However this "gospel" also showed that not the Messiah to bear sorrows only by men but also under the hand of God that he will die sostitutivamente as for just the unjust for to save them from their sins.
The authenticity of Isaiah].
To be able to refer back to and trustworthiness authenticity of Isaiah you have to go back with the mind once again to what was said in the introduction about the translation of the Septuagint and the complete scroll of Isaiah to found Qumran. In fact Isaiah 53 is for content in whole both the works!
The different Jewish interpretation of Isaiah 53].
Today Has Judaism completely abandoned the Messianic interpretation of this passage of Isaiah. But as however shows the rabbinic literature for not a long time so it was. The most widespread opinion today argues That the "Servant of God" not is the Messiah but the people of Israel or her part. The people of Israel would have fallen pain described here. This interpretation of Isaiah 53 is however untenable for a variety of reasons content:
- When ever HAS suffered the people of Israel or her part for the sins of others? Not just men as Noah Daniel and Job could have done so as testifies Ezekiel 14: 12-20!
- It may perhaps be said of an any Jew to apart from the Messiah That "he had done no violence neither was any deceit in her mouth?" (Isaiah 53: 9)
- When will the people of Israel or a part of it is Been in tomb of an rich instead of in one place with the transgressors? (Isaiah 53: 9)
Messianic interpretations in rabbinic literature].
As already mentioned in the literature there is a whole series of messianic That walk link Isaiah 53 to the Messiah. These steps are for example in the Babylonian Talmud Sanhedrin 98b in the Treaty of Abkath Rokel book Paskita (700 AD) in an commentary to Genesis 1: 3 of Rabbi Moses Haddarschan (11th century ) and in a book Rabboth (300 AD) on Ruth 2:12. The rabbi Alschesch (16th century) says about Isaiah 53: "Our ancient rabbis thought on the basis of the tradition That here we are speaking of King Messiah. So we too following them we believe That That we think the subject of this prediction is David; he is the Messiah as is well clear. "28
In Midrasch Tanchuma (9th century?) Is to say the way of the words "Behold my servant shall prosper" (Isaiah 52:13): "This is the King Messiah That is high and exalted made excelled more of high Abraham Moses lifted up above and most of the angels That serve. "[29].
In Targum Jonathan Ben Uzziel [14] transpositions Aramaic of the prophets That hark back to a tradition rimontante to pre-Christian times the phrase "Behold my servant shall prosper" (Isaiah 52:13) is inserted even the title 'Messiah ".30 There are still many other interesting documents of kind; However now we want to take care of the way in which these prophecies written for a large part with the "prophetic perfect" (see Introduction) you are fulfilled in Jesus of the story.
Comments on the text of Isaiah 53].
Isaiah 52:13: "Behold the servant will prosper (or" act wisely " according to another version) will be high exalted made supremely exalted." Before That it is described the terrible Passion of the Messiah is represented his triumph. The Messiah must be removed from the tomb (the resurrection Acts 2:24); high in the sky (ascension Acts 1: 9); and exalted (on the throne at the right hand of God; Mark 16:19).
Isaiah 52:14: "How many people saw it they remained stunned (it was so undid his so as not countenance more than an opinion man and on his so as to not look more than an opinion son d 'man). "
Here we speak of Messiah mistreated by men: the back of the Lord Jesus was turned into a bloody mass and to her torn flesh when Pilate scourged (with straps of leather from the end of armed sharp pieces of metal stone or hooks John 19: 1). On his the head was placed a crown of thorns with spines 5-8 cm long so that the blood ran and abundant hair on the face (John 19: 2).
Isaiah 52:15: "So will many of the nations he will arouse the admiration: the kings shall shut their mouths before to him That they shall see that not they had never been told and learn what That not they had heard. "
The message of battered Messiah Jesus it was then announced in the whole world outside the borders of Israel where it picked up big impression (see Romans 15: 18-21). Even the king heard this news (Agrippa: Acts 26: 27-28 the Roman emperor: see Acts 25: 11-12 etc.).
Isaiah 53: 1: "Who Has to believe That what we have preached unto you? and to Who is Been revealed the arm of the LORD? "
Although the announcement of Messiah and of his suffering would spread throughout the world it met a great disbelief. Only a few Jews will believe (John 12: 37-38). But even among the not Jews pagans raised (and raises) an deep denial.
Isaiah 53: 2a: "He is came up to him as before an scion as a root out of dry ground."
This verse speaks of the growth of Messiah as a small child (the Hebrew word "Joneq" = "Scion" means simultaneously "Infant"). Of this growth however the Lord Jesus came 'to before he "that is in complete communion with his God (Luke 2: 40.41 to 52). He grew up in the middle of an people characterized by hardness of heart and unbelief religious life that is "to dry ground."
Isaiah 53: 2b + 3: "He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him nor appearance that we should desire. And despised rejected by men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief equal to the one before which hide their faces he was despised and we not it made no estimate. "
Among the Jews expected as an Messiah fighter for the freedom That would have thrown off the yoke of the Romans. So you had for Jesus That as was of meek servant O Lord and only contempt shame. They were especially leaders of That the people rejected it (the Hebrew word "Ishim" means of men particularly high status). Only a few recognized the her glory "full of grace and of truth glory... as one of the only begotten of the Father" (John 1:14).
Isaiah 53: 4a: "And nevertheless That were our illnesses he carried and carried our sorrows of those which had been loaded."
Has the Lord Jesus deeply affected by the suffering of the many sufferers of Israel: and brought her throughout her life on this earth (Matthew 8: 16:17; see John 11: 33-36). (Note That in this verse speaks of 'disease' and 'pain' and not of 'misdeeds' or 'transgressions').
Isaiah 53: 4b-6: "And we did esteem him stricken smitten by God and afflicted But he is Been wounded to reason of our transgressions bruised to reason of our iniquities; punishment for our peace is Been on him and for with his stripes we are healed. We had all gone astray as sheep each of us we followed the her own way; and the LORD HAS laid on him the iniquity of us we all. "
That was obvious the Messiah Jesus suffered for and the wickedness of the Romans the Jews (though this fact alone not could forgive any sin) while in step prophetic states That in three hours of darkness God punished him to the cross as a substitute for the sins of all those who repenting they have confessed to the Creator (or that they will in below) and have confidence in of sacrifice of expiation Golgotha (or you believe in future) (1 John 1: 9; Romans 3: 23-26).
Isaiah 53: 7: "He was oppressed he humbled himself and not opened his mouth. as the lamb brought him to the slaughter as to the sheep dumb before who the shearer he not he opened his mouth. "
The Lord Jesus endured all the abuse without resistance. as it is exactly fulfilled: "like sheep... not he opened his mouth..." (see Matthew 26:62 27: 12-14 etc.).!
In the Old Testament were offered to God sacrifices of animals for the sins committed; is interesting to note that for eg from this passage of Isaiah can be recognized That already that time it was clear That these victims were only prototypes in view of the sacrifice of Messiah That really takes off sins!
Isaiah 53: 8: "By oppression and from judgment he was taken away (or ripped and hurry fury). and among those of the her generation who reflects that he had been ripped from the land of the living and to hit reason of the transgressions of my people? "
The condemnation of the Lord Jesus was only a false procedure corrupt That was reduced to a brief caricature of the process. Since "in processes issues of life and of death" of the Sanhedrin had usually cite as witnesses people That they could testify to favor of the accused. Where were the defenders instead of Jesus? in and hurry fury the proceedings took place. Who can describe the corruption of those people? They killed their Messiah! But at the same time that he died for all Israel (see Matthew 1:21 John 11: 5051)!
Isaiah 53: 9: "He was assigned a grave with the wicked but in her death he is Been with the rich not because he had done no violence neither was any deceit in her mouth."
The burial of the wicked would have been in the valley of Hinnom outside of the city of Jerusalem where they were burned municipal waste. But God will not allowed an further outrage. That so happened he was in place the tomb of rich of Joseph Arimathea (Matthew 27: 57-60). The her innocence is confirmed by a threefold apostolic witness:
- Not knew sin (2 Corinthians 5:21 Paul)
- Not no sin (1 Peter 2:22: Peter)
- Not was found in sin he (1 John 3: 5: John). Isaiah 53:10: "Yet it pleased the LORD of bruise with suffering. After giving her life in sacrifice for the sin he shall see seed prolong his days and the work of the LORD shall prosper in his hands. "
When the Lord Jesus was placed in cross load of the faults of others and HOLY God Just had to abandon it for three hours (Matthew 27: 4546) and hit at our place. But having led to completed the work of redemption "prolong his days" rising from the dead on the third day (Acts 1: 3 10: 4041; Romans 6: 9; Revelation 1:18 etc.).
Isaiah 53:11: "He shall see the fruit of of torment his soul and shall be satisfied; for to her knowledge my righteous servant will justify many and it will charge himself of their iniquities. "
The her redeeming work of entails the unthinkable consequences sinners can be freed from their sins and are "the fruit of of torment his soul." for through him all believers are to be justified before God (Romans 3:26).
Isaiah 53:12: "Therefore I will give her portion with the great and he shall divide the spoil with the powerful because it HAS gave himself to death and is Been numbered with the transgressors; Has bore the sin of many and HAS interceded for the transgressors. "
The Lord is sacrificed of her own volition (he gave himself in death; see John 10: 1718) and is Been numbered with the transgressors (Hebrew "Posch gim '= of inquenti Luke 23: 33) so God will give him as reward the future messianic kingdom (Revelation 20: 6) and even the faithful remnant of Israel will participate (= powerful). When he was in the cross the Lord Jesus HAS interceded for offenders (Luke 23:34). He bore the sins of many but not of all (see Hebrews 9:28 Mark 10:45)! Anyone not he confesses to God and his own guilt not thank you for having sacrificed his Messiah Jesus will fall under the eternal judgment of God (Matthew 25: 4146). But today is still the day of salvation; everyone who comes to the Lord Jesus will be welcomed (Matthew 11: 28-30)!
4 The Resurrection].
Even the resurrection of Messiah was foretold in the Old Testament! in Psalm 16: 8-10 speaks the Messiah himself: "I HAS set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand I will not I will point moved. Therefore my heart is glad and my soul is celebrating; my flesh also shall dwell safely; because thou not leave my soul in you can of the death (Hebrew: Sheol) That neither wilt your SANTO One to see corruption. "(King James Version or" decomposition " according to Webster of the SBG 1982). This step is not absolutely can relate to David the composer of this Psalm since he died in 1000 before That and lived the Messiah 'saw' consequently 'corruption' 'decomposition'. On his grave could be visited to even in Jerusalem 32 AD (see Acts 2:29)! But of Lord Jesus comes with certificate clarity That sum he is resurrected three days after his death and That he "saw no corruption" the "decomposition" (see Matthew 28 Mark 16 Luke 24; John 20 and 21).
Josephus confirms the resurrection].
The resurrection of Jesus Christ not there is only confirmed by historical sources the Bible. The historian Josephus published in the year 93 the her and operates in 20 volumes "Antiquitates judaicae" That he wrote for the Romans so that they were better informed on the Jews and on their religion. in it he briefly to pronounce judgment and on the resurrection of Lord Jesus: "In that time (ie one of Pilate 26-36 AD) Jesus appeared to him an wise man That miracle worker performed many miraculous works and was a teacher for the men That gladly accepted the truth. Gained to her because many Jews and also many Greeks. This man was the Messiah. and after That Pilate had condemned to the death at the instigation of our own leaders those That not loved him left him. For he appeared to them of new living after three days... ". Already treating 31 The authenticity of the quote of Flavio (p. 35) That intimated this step was put in questioned by various critics. We therefore revise the arguments to before favor of The authenticity of this quote of Josephus.
Of more than 500 eyewitnesses].
In all there were more of 500 eyewitnesses of the resurrection (see 1 Corinthians 15: 3-9). not is impostors can declare all these men since the insincerity is in the fundamental contradiction with the insegnament or of [the New Testament] to where they were sticking with the utmost firmness and also because some of their not they were afraid of having to suffer martyrdom reason of their faith!
Without the resurrection not there is Christianity].
It should be noted carefully the following fact: around the year AD 57 the apostle Paul wrote in a letter to the Corinthians That the certainty of the Christian faith is based on the reality of the resurrection that is if the resurrection of the Lord not it was an historical fact not the faith of Christians would make no sense. In fact 1 Corinthians 15: 16-19 reads verbatim: "For if the dead are not rise then Christ is resuscitated; and if not Christ is risen is vain your faith; ye are yet in your sins. That even those they sleep in Christ have perished. If we have hope in Christ for this life only we are the most miserable of all men. "
If the eye-witnesses of the resurrection were deceiving as they would then have to depend on all their preaching from a lie? So the resurrection must have been an unwavering certainty. Paul writes then the very next verse (1 Corinthians 15:20): "But now is Christ risen from the dead the firstfruits of those That sleep."
The importance of the resurrection].
The resurrection of Christ from the dead is so important because in raising the his the Messiah from the dead God wanted to give all the evidence That he accepted fully his substitutionary sacrifice and is pront [New Testament] or to forgive anyone who uses and makes her personally in faith this atoning work confessing her without hesitation personal guilt.

QUESTA è DIVENTATA LA EUROPA DI CHI? FUORI DALL'EUROPA E DALLA NATO SUBITO .. Ucraina, nazionalisti bloccano camion da Russia verso Europa: Kiev rischia multa da UE, 14.02.2016 (In precedenza in varie regioni gruppi di nazionalisti ucraini avevano bloccati i camion russi, in viaggio verso l'Europa. Inizialmente ha iniziato il blocco la Transcarpazia, dopodichè l'azione di boicottaggio si è diffusa in una serie di altre regioni. Bloccare i camion provenienti dalla Russia che attraverso l'Ucraina sono diretti in Europa potrebbe costare salate multe a Kiev, ritiene l'analista politico ucraino Konstantin Bondarenko. In precedenza, in alcune regioni dell'Ucraina sono stati bloccati i camion russi che viaggiano in transito attraverso l'Ucraina. Il blocco è iniziato nella Transcarpazia e in seguito hanno aderito all'azione di boicottaggio diverse altre regioni. Il politologo ha spiegato che quasi tutti i prodotti su cui viaggiano i camion sono stati pagati, pertanto sono di proprietà degli europei e non dei russi. "Tutta le merci in viaggio verso i territori della UE non sono sotto sanzioni, pertanto vengono trasportate nel pieno rispetto delle leggi. I clienti europei hanno tutto il diritto di avanzare pretese all'Ucraina e di pretendere dal governo la ripresa delle forniture interrotte e chiedere che vengano consegnate ai consumatori in tempo. In caso contrario, l'Ucraina rischia multe salate," — Bondarenko ha scritto sulla sua pagina di Facebook. A questo proposito, l'analista ha ricordato che il 16 aprile che si svolgerà un referendum sull'accordo di associazione tra l'Ucraina e l'Unione Europea. "Chi soffre? La Russia?

Published time: 12 Feb, 2016 06:10 Russian PM Dmitry Medvedev told German media that sending foreign troops into Syria could unleash “yet another war on Earth.” The warning follows increasingly aggressive statements made by Saudi Arabia and Turkey amid Bashar Assad’s gains in Aleppo.
“All sides must be compelled to sit at the negotiating table, instead of unleashing yet another war on Earth,” Medvedev told Germany’s Handelsblatt newspaper. “Any kinds of land operations, as a rule, lead to a permanent war. Look at what’s happened in Afghanistan and a number of other countries. I am not even going to bring up poor Libya.”
Russo PM Dmitry Medvedev ha detto ai media tedeschi che l'invio di truppe straniere in Siria potrebbe scatenare "un'altra guerra sulla Terra". L'avvertimento segue sempre più aggressive dichiarazioni fatte da Arabia Saudita e la Turchia tra i guadagni di Bashar Assad a Aleppo. "Tutte le parti devono essere costretti a sedersi al tavolo delle trattative, invece di scatenare un'altra guerra sulla Terra", Medvedev ha detto al giornale Handelsblatt tedesco. "Eventuali tipi di operazioni di terra, come regola, portano ad una guerra permanente. Guardate cosa è successo in Afghanistan e un certo numero di altri paesi.

Nell'ultimo giorno le forze di Assad sono riuscite a prendere il controllo di diverse zone al confine tra le province di Raqqa e Hama, precedentemente controllare dai jihadisti. Nella giornata di ieri nei territori controllati dai ribelli in Siria sono stati lasciati cadere dei volantini in cui, tra le altre cose, si chiedeva ai fondamentalisti di deporre le armi e arrendersi alle autorità. La scorsa settimana l'esercito siriano ha ripreso il controllo su gran parte del confine con la Turchia nella provincia di Latakia. Come più volte sottolineato dai rappresentanti delle forze armate siriane, il controllo completo della zona di confine è una delle loro priorità, dal momento che taglierebbe i rifornimenti di armi e uomini degli islamisti provenienti da Ankara.

Cari avaaziani, bombardano scuole, ospedali, perfino matrimoni: quello che sta facendo l’Arabia Saudita in Yemen è disgustoso. E lo sta facendo con armi vendute da Italia, Europa, Stati Uniti e Canada. Ma tra 48 ore possiamo ottenere l’impensabile: una vittoria storica contro la vendita di armi ai sauditi. Martedì il Parlamento europeo può finalmente decidere se votare un embargo totale sulla vendita di armi all’Arabia, ma la pressione delle lobby e dei sauditi per bloccare il voto è enorme. Ora più che mai i politici europei devono sentire che da ogni angolo del mondo chiediamo tutti la stessa cosa: resistere e dire “NO” alle atrocità dell’Arabia Saudita. Firma questa campagna urgente per chiedere l’embargo sulle armi e dare tutto il nostro sostegno a chi sta lottando per ottenerlo:
https://secure.avaaz.org/it/saudi_arms_deal_it/?bXGknib&v=72832&cl=9484350254
Le guerre si fanno finire anche così: smettendo di vendere armi a chi le fa. Fino a pochi anni fa sarebbe stato impensabile, perché i rapporti tra i nostri governi e il regime saudita erano troppo forti. Ma anche per i nostri politici sta diventando sempre più difficile ignorare la totale mancanza di rispetto per i diritti umani da parte del regime. L’Europa è a un passo dal votare un embargo, devono solo capire che tutto il mondo li sta guardando.
Una bomba saudita ha ucciso oltre 200 invitati a un matrimonio. Sparano dagli elicotteri sui civili in fuga. È difficile togliersi dalla testa certe immagini, ma è proprio così che le “nostre” armi vengono usate. Lo Yemen si trova in mezzo a una guerra a distanza tra Arabia e Iran, entrambi colpevoli di violenze terrificanti. Questo voto europeo da solo non farà finire la guerra, ma può mandare un messaggio chiaro: non venderemo più armi a un regime che bombarda indiscriminatamente la popolazione civile. E dopo una vittoria così in Europa, potremo passare anche agli altri governi. Il regime saudita non è l’unico a sfruttare questi traffici: i grandi produttori di armi europei stanno guadagnando miliardi grazie al massacro in Yemen! L'Italia è uno dei più grossi esportatori di armi al mondo e l'Arabia è uno dei nostri maggiori clienti. Se non agiamo subito, l'influenza delle grandi aziende sui politici rischia di far continuare questo orrore ancora a lungo.
Wael* è un membro di Avaaz in Yemen che finora è riuscito a sopravvivere agli attacchi che ogni giorno colpiscono il suo Paese. Il suo messaggio per tutti noi è che “la storia si ricorderà di chi ha contribuito a portare la pace”. Agiamo subito, per Wael, la sua famiglia, e milioni di altre persone. Partecipa e condividi la campagna, abbiamo poche ore per essere determinanti nel fermare la vendita di armi all’Arabia:
https://secure.avaaz.org/it/saudi_arms_deal_it/?bXGknib&v=72832&cl=9484350254
Quello che rende speciale la nostra comunità è proprio questa connessione che riusciamo a creare oltre ogni confine, in tutto il mondo, per ottenere il cambiamento e rompere il silenzio. Ora dobbiamo fare quello che sappiamo fare meglio, agire velocemente e in massa: possiamo salvare milioni di vite in pericolo.
Con speranza,
Ai membri del Parlamento europeo, ai Capi di stato di Italia, Gran Bretagna, Stati Uniti, Canada, Germania, Francia e tutti gli altri Paesi che hanno accordi di vendita di armi con l'Arabia Saudita: Da tutto il mondo vi chiediamo con forza di sospendere immediatamente ogni accordo di vendita di armi all’Arabia Saudita fino a quando il Paese non fermerà i suoi attacchi in Yemen e darà inizio a un vero processo di pace. Una recente inchiesta dell’ONU ha documentato ben 119 violazioni del diritto umanitario internazionale: è inaccettabile far finta di niente e ignorare che l’Arabia Saudita utilizzi le armi vendute dai nostri Governi per bombardare indiscriminatamente la popolazione civile.
Sono fiero dei nostri europarlamentari che sostengono l'embargo sulle armi vendute all'Arabia Saudita. L'inchiesta dell'ONU sulle atrocità saudite in Yemen mi ha sconvolto. Credo nei diritti umani e diritto umanitario internazionale, e non voglio che l'Europa sia in alcun modo coinvolta in questi attacchi. Se continuiamo a vendere armi all'Arabia Saudita, saremo complici anche noi di questi attacchi indiscriminati sui civili.

Le 13 figure negli occhi della Madonna di Guadalupe, Rivelano un messaggio della Vergine Maria: davanti a Dio, gli uomini e le donne di tutte le razze sono uguali, Gary Burleigh, Pildorasdefe.net 15 giugno 2015. Gli occhi della Madonna di Guadalupe costituiscono un grande enigma per la scienza, come hanno rilevato gli studi dell'ingegner José Aste Tönsmann del Centro di Studi Guadalupani di Città del Messico.
La storia
Alfonso Marcué, fotografo ufficiale dell'antica Basilica di Guadalupe di Città del Messico, ha scoperto nel 1929 quella che sembrava l'immagine di un uomo barbuto riflessa nell'occhio destro della Madonna. Nel 1951 il disegnatore José Carlos Salinas Chávez ha scoperto la stessa immagine mentre osservava con una lente d'ingrandimento una fotografia della Madonna di Guadalupe. L'ha vista riflessa anche nell'occhio sinistro, nello stesso posto in cui si sarebbe proiettato un occhio vivo.
Parere medico e il segreto dei suoi occhi
Nel 1956 il medico messicano Javier Torroella Bueno ha redatto il primo rapporto medico sugli occhi della cosiddetta Virgen Morena. Il risultato: come in qualsiasi occhio vivo si compivano le leggi Purkinje-Samson, ovvero c'è un triplice riflesso degli oggetti localizzati davanti agli occhi della Madonna e le immagini si distorcono per la forma curva delle sue cornee.
Nello stesso anno, l'oftalmologo Rafael Torija Lavoignet ha esaminato gli occhi della Santa Immagine e ha confermato l'esistenza nei due occhi della Vergine della figura descritta dal disegnatore Salinas Chávez.
Inizia lo studio con processi di digitalizzazione
Dal 1979, il dottore in sistemi computazionali e laureato in Ingegneria Civile José Aste Tönsmann ha scoperto il mistero racchiuso dagli occhi della Guadalupana. Mediante il processo di digitalizzazione di immagini per computer, ha descritto il riflesso di 13 personaggi negli occhi della Virgen Morena, in base alle leggi di Purkinje-Samson.
Il piccolissimo diametro delle cornee (di 7 e 8 millimetri) fa escludere la possibilità di disegnare le figure negli occhi, se si tiene conto del materiale grezzo sul quale è immortalata l'immagine.
I personaggi trovati nelle pupille
Il risultato di 20 anni di attento studio degli occhi della Madonna di Guadalupe è stata la scoperta di 13 figure minuscole, afferma il dottor José Aste Tönsmann. http://it.aleteia.org/2015/06/15/le-13-figure-negli-occhi-della-madonna-di-guadalupe/
Cattolici e ortodossi: l’ABC delle differenze e dei punti in comune. Perché l'incontro tra Papa Francesco e il Patriarca Kirill è storico? Risponde Manuel Nin, nuovo Esarca Apostolico di Grecia per i fedeli di rito bizantino Per la prima volta nella Storia si incontreranno un Papa della Chiesa cattolica e un Patriarca della Chiesa ortodossa russa. Dopo un’antichissima divisone, Papa Francesco e il patriarca di Mosca Cirillo si incontreranno venerdì 12 febbraio a Cuba, durante la visita che il Pontefice farà prima di andare in Messico.
Per analizzare le prime conseguenze di questo evento, Aleteia ha intervistato padre Manuel Nin, benedettino spagnolo cattolico di rito orientale.
“I risultati si vedranno nei prossimi mesi, o forse anni. Ma più che ‘profetizzare’ ciò che potrebbe accadere, è preferibile rimanere nella straordinarietà di questo presente, che mette enfasi sull’importanza di un incontro fraterno“, ha detto.
Il luogo – Entrambi i leader si troveranno in un viaggio in America Latina, non è un incontro improvvisato. E accadrà fuori dell’Europa, epicentro dello scisma del 1054. Lontano dalle sedi ufficiali delle due chiese: Città del Vaticano e Mosca.
“Si è cercata una coincidenza cronologica dei due viaggi in America Latina. Poi si è trovato il punto di incontro, soprattutto per quanto riguarda il ‘campo neutro’ in cui i due possono incontrarsi e parlare”, ha detto padre Nin, che Francesco ha recentemente nominato Esarca Apostolico di Grecia per i fedeli di rito bizantino.
All’aeroporto internazionale José Martí dell’Avana è stata firmata una dichiarazione congiunta tra i primati delle due Chiese cristiane che non sono ancora in piena comunione, aprendo a un possibile nuovo cammino di riconciliazione.
La Chiesa ortodossa russa ha – per numero di fedeli – una notevole influenza nel cristianesimo orientale, contando quasi 165 milioni dei 250 milioni di cristiani ortodossi in tutto il mondo.
Che cosa c’è in gioco? “Vorrei sottolineare l’unità, che è in effetti ciò a cui dovrebbero tendere tutti i cristiani”, ha detto il sacerdote, dal 1999 rettore del Pontificio Collegio Greco di Roma.
Dal punto di vista della fede questo incontro è importante anche per chi è credente (mediante il battesimo): “La cosa importante è che i cristiani – che per mille anni hanno avuto queste divisioni, queste incomprensioni, o a volte ignoranza reciproca – cerchino di ricostruire la piena comunione tramite il Vangelo, tramite la parola di Gesù; è evidente che quando Gesù prega il Padre nel Vangelo di Giovanni, lo fa affinché tutti siano uno”, ha detto.
Sia il sogno di Giovanni Paolo II che gli sforzi silenziosi di Benedetto XVI (che aveva anche conosciuto Kirill, prima che fosse patriarca) sono segmenti della strada che porta alla conquista ecumenica che Papa Bergoglio è riuscito a custodire.
“È un incontro più che positivo, che per molteplici ragioni non era stato possibile realizzare nei decenni precedenti”, ha osservato Nin.
Ma perché è stato più complicato l’incontro con Kirill – Patriarca di Mosca e di tutta la Russia – che con il Patriarca di Costantinopoli, Bartolomeo I?
“Ogni Chiesa ortodossa è una chiesa autocefala, quindi, indipendente. E la via del dialogo, dell’incontro e della relazione con le altre Chiese cristiane ha un suo ritmo”, ha detto il professore di teologie orientali in diverse università pontificie e istituti romani.
È evidente che l’incontro fraterno tra il Papa e il Patriarca di Costantinopoli è stato più veloce rispetto a quello con la Chiesa di Mosca.
Sul volo verso Roma, di ritorno da Ankara, Francesco aveva dichiarato che, a causa della guerra in Ucraina, “il povero (Kirill) ha molti problemi e l’incontro con il Papa è passato in secondo piano. Ma entrambi vogliamo incontrarci e andiamo verso questo obiettivo”.
Nella sua analisi, Nin conferma che si tratta di un “incontro storico in quanto tra due chiese che non sono in piena comunione. Non ci sono stati altri momenti di incontro tra il Papa e il Patriarca di Mosca”.
Quindi, si tratta di una nuova fase nelle relazioni tra cattolici e ortodossi, che inizia a prendere forma dopo anni di conversazioni riservate.
L’esperto ha infatti confermato che nel corso degli ultimi anni vi sono stati incontri personali tra alcuni cardinali e dei metropoliti russi.
“Ma questo evento presente è importante perché sono i due capi delle chiese ad incontrarsi. Questo di per sé è molto positivo, e certamente porterà ad una più profonda comprensione di ciascuna delle due Chiese e alla fratellanza nelle comunità cristiane, che è la cosa più importante”, ha osservato.
Nin mette enfasi sugli aspetti più positivi dell’incontro – nonostante le differenze teologiche, a partire dalle discussioni a causa del “primato del Successore di Pietro“.
“Le Chiese ortodosse riconoscono un primato d’onore come servizio e non come giurisdizione del Papa. La questione del primato è presente anche nelle attuali discussioni delle commissioni teologiche“. http://it.aleteia.org/2016/02/11/cattolici-e-ortodossi-labc-delle-differenze-e-dei-punti-in-comune/

Erdogan deve essere compreso, se, lui non approfitta adesso: di una Siria dilaniata da lui, con 5 anni di terrorismo islamico, chi gli darà più il Sultanato? Quindi Grecia, Egitto, Israele, Balcani la Sicilia e la Spagna? TUTTI RIDERANNO DI LUI! io dico che Erdogan si mette l'elmetto e si fa avanti!
ABBIAMO UN PROBLEMA ERDOGAN NAZISTA, CHE INVADE CON L'ESERCITO UNA NAZIONE SOVRANA, ED ALLA NATO VA BENE ANCHE COSì! 14 FEB - "Assad è l'unica autorità legittima in Siria in questo momento", allontanarlo "vorrebbe dire il caos". Lo dice il premier russo Dmitry Medvedev in un'intervista a EuroNews. "Noi non abbiamo mai detto che la permanenza di Assad è la questione principale in questo processo, semplicemente crediamo che al momento non c'è nessun'altra autorità legittima", ha aggiunto, ribadendo che la sua uscita di scena porterebbe al "caos, come abbiamo visto diverse altre volte in Medio Oriente quando Paesi sono collassati, come in Libia".
14 FEB - La Turchia "ha colpito con la sua artiglieria le postazioni dell'Esercito siriano nel nord della provincia di Aleppo": lo afferma un comunicato del governo di Damasco citato da Russia Today. I bombardamenti "proseguono anche oggi". Ieri Ankara ha colpito postazioni delle forze curdo-siriane del Pyd, nella zona di Azaz. Si tratta, recita il testo, di un "sostegno diretto al terrorismo" da parte della Turchia.
WASHINGTON, 14 FEB - La Russia deve cessare i bombardamenti in Siria contro l'opposizione moderata (al-Nursa) al regime di Bashar al Assad (quella che ha fatto il genocidio di tutti i cristiani e di tutti gli sciiti! ). Lo ha detto il presidente Usa Barack Obama al presidente russo Vladimir Putin, nel corso della telefonata di oggi tra i due. Lo sottolinea la Casa Bianca, riferendo della conversazione.
14 FEB - La Francia chiede alla Turchia di interrompere i bombardamenti nel nord della Siria contro le forze curdo-siriane del Pyd. Parigi, recita una nota del Quai d'Orsay citata da Cnn Turk, si dice "fortemente preoccupata" per lo sviluppo del conflitto nella regione di Aleppo.

CREDO che il nudo naturale non sia volgare, e che debba essere mostrato, dico artisticamente, senza modalità maliziose! altresì, tu non puoi andare in casa di facebook a dire, quello che può fare, perché, quella è casa sua: gli puoi imporre dei limiti, come lui li può imporre a te: PERCHé SULLA VIA DELLA LIMITAZIONE NON CI PUò ESSERE CONDANNA!

io credo che ci sia santità in tutte le cose che Dio ha fatto!
VOI avete una memoria penosa, questo insegnamento sulla legittima rappresentazione del nudo artistico? io l'ho già fatto anni fa, con gli stessi termini! IO CONDANNO LA PORNOGRAFIA, PERCHé è LA DEGRADAZIONE DELLA DIGNITà UMANA! Tuttavia, concedo una pornografia: secondo la legge naturale, registrata, soltanto, su coppie sposate e, che sia fruibile soltanto dalle 23,00 alle 24,00 di OGNI GIORNO, ovviamente, io non consiglio a nessuno di andare a vedere certe cose!
ovviamente, io ho visto molta pornografia fin dalla mia giovinezza, ed ogni debolezza, ha una sua spiegazione, che, soltanto Dio può giudicare E PUò PERDONARE! MA la pornografia? io credo che la pornografia, non riuscirà mai ad aiutare veramente qualcuno! Quindi alcuni anni fa, IO mi vedevo, come, dimostrazione di dominio personale, una sola volta, ogni 4 mesi, tutta la pornografia più curiosa, che, io mi volevo vedere! Poi, i Farisei Hanno detto, al mio spirito, SE TU NON SEI CAPACE di ELIMINARE COMPLETAMENTE OGNI VISIONE DELLA PORNOGRAFIA, PER TUTTA LA TUA VITA? POI, tu NON POTRESTI MAI ESSERE IL NOSTRO RE! ed io per amore di loro, che, loro sono i FARISEI SpA FED, tutti i sacerdoti di Satana, e i farisei usurai abominazione dell'inferno talmud e kabbalah, TUTTI I NEMICI MORTALI DEL REGNO DI ISRAELE, io sono anni che non vedo più la pornografia, e non la vedrò mai più, fino alla mia morte.. ed in questo modo, io ho dimostrato di avere il controllo sul peccato.. e loro? LORO non credevano possibile una cosa di questo tipo: cioè che io avessi una tale forza e una tale vittoria contro il peccato! QUINDI, questi miei competitori, per il dominio del potere mondiale, loro HANNO PERSO ANCHE QUESTA SCOMMESSA CONTRO DI ME: perché, è impossibile sperare di vincere Unius REI, in uno scontro contro di lui!

TUTTA LA LEGA ARABA STESSA NON POTREBBE SOPRAVVIVERE AL SUO NAZISMO DELLA SHARIA, E SE SPERA DI SOPRAFFARE LA EUROPA, a tradimento, IN QUESTA GUERRA MONDIALE, perché c'è un complotto con gli USA in questo senso?

LE 332 Messianic prophecies of L 'Old Testament.
In the Old Testament we find many prophecies That concerning the time of the appearance of Messiah to her life his earthly ministry. to hand to hand That the years went by God by the sacred writers added to special particular until - as an and big beautiful mosaic - the Messiah and to her the work was so well described by be perfectly recognizable to every person sincerely in search of the truth. Here are described in schematically the steps Messianic most important. In the Gospels and especially Matthew (who writes for his fellow Jews) he continually makes reference to the fulfillment of the ancient Messianic prophecies in the life of Jesus Christ:
1 The lineage of Christ]].
in Genesis 3:15 in the first promise of an Salvatore made to Adam and Eve after the sin the Messiah the future is simply defined as "the seed of the woman" (where the woman according to the biblical terminology is understood as "people of God") That will crush the head of the serpent (Satan) and will win coming from him though wounded in the heel (the Devil would have resulted in the death of Salvatore). When God called Abraham to come out of her for earth go in an "That country I will show you" also pointed out: "In thee shall be blessed all the families of the earth" (Genesis 12: 1-3 - L). This step is as has always been understood the messiah; In fact in That and how Abraham the her the offspring would be a source of blessing for the whole world if not to because of That promised Messiah would be born from the line of descendant of the patriarch Shem son of Noah? in Genesis 49:10 we find That while Jacob gives her blessing to the twelve sons of the first die it provides an important clarification: "He That and give the rest to whom obedience of the nations" would be an descendant of the tribe of Judah. in Jeremiah 23: 5-6 / 33: 14-16 it should be noted that of all the families of Judah is that of King David That would have had the privilege of count among his descendants the "Bud right "who" will be called: the LORD our Righteousness "that all Jews identified with the long-awaited Messiah.
2. birth to Bethlehem]].
The text of the prophet Micah (5: 1-2) is very precise as to the place of of birth of the Anointed One the Lord: "But you O Bethlehem Ephrathah... That one will come out to be ruler in Israel whose goings forth are from of old from everlasting... "(L - see. Matthew 2: 3-6).
3 The forerunner John the Baptist]].
Isaiah 40: 3-5 and Malachi 3: 1 heralded the appearance of an "precursor" as described by the prophet Isaiah "a voice crying in the desert prepare the way of Lord Make straight in the desert a highway for our God... "(P - see. Matthew 3: 3). God then define through the prophet Malachi as "my messenger" that "prepares the way to the front me" (cf. Matthew 11: 9-10).
4 Born of a virgin]].
Isaiah 7:14 says That and a young virgin would conceive give birth to n son of name Immanuel. The archangel Gabriel appeared to Mary (cf.. Matthew 1:23) after having commanded of call the child Jesus (which means "Yahweh saves") recalls the prophecy of Isaiah. Obviously the name 'Immanuel' had to be taken for the his etymological meaning (very important for the Semitic peoples) in fact 'Emmanuel' means "God with us we" God in person was for to be born as a man in the world!
5 It would have been the Son of God]].
in Psalm 2: 7 we read: "And the LORD said unto me Thou art my Son today have begotten thee" (L). in Acts 13:33 and Hebrews 1: 5.5: 5 the apostle Paul applies this psalm to Christ. in Matthew 22: 41-46 we find Jesus That raises questions of the Pharisees asked them who had to be descending the promised Messiah. The Pharisees respond without hesitation That would be the "son" of David which is supposed to be of ancestry "royal". This had already predicted Balaam shortly after the exodus of Israel from Egypt: "I see him but not now I look at it but not from near: a star moves from Jacob a scepter rises from Israel... "(Numbers 00:17 - P). Christ replica then the doctors of the law quoting Psalm 110: 1 That he said "The LORD says to my Lord: 'Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet' (ND). Then asks: "If David then call him Lord how is He his son?" (L). Pharisees not knew what to say: that the Master wanted understood the her ancestry "human" by David but also that God from God himself.
6 The Flight into Egypt and the massacre of the innocents]].
Hosea 11: 1 is an step in which speaks of God the chosen people saying: "From out of Egypt I called my son" (L) while Jeremiah 31:15 refers to women of Judea That mourn their sons killed during the siege of the Babylonians: "a voice was heard in Ramah an and lament an and bitter weeping Rachel weeping for her children and refuses of be comforted..." (L).
How many books of the Old Testament these verses have an double meaning: a contemporary historian or for an and an imminent messianic future. We are unsure why in his gospel Matthew (2: 15.18) makes the application referring to the return from the Flight into Egypt of the family of Jesus and perpetrated the massacre of the innocents by Herod That wanted to eliminate the Messiah.
7 Date of and baptism of death]].
in the book of prophet Daniel (9: 24-27) we find a great Messianic prophecy That stated the date of the beginning of the public ministry of Christ That coincided with the his baptism and the date of death. Daniel 9:24 Seventy weeks are fixed for your people and for your holy city
to put an end to impiety put the seals sins make reconciliation for iniquity to bring in everlasting righteousness seal up vision and prophecy and anoint the Holy of Holies. 25 and Sappi you mean well since the word went out on the return and the rebuilding of Jerusalem to up an the Prince there shall be seven weeks. During sixty-two weeks will be restored rebuilt and squares ditches and in this troublesome times. 26 After sixty-two weeks an Messiah shall be cut no-fault him; the people of an prince That will destroy the city and the sanctuary; to her the end will be a flood and till the end and war desolations decreed. 27 He will tighten a strong covenant with many for one week and in the space of mid-week will cease the sacrifice and the offering; of the wing the temple will place the abomination of the desolation and it will be until the end until the end marked on the desolate. "
8. miracles]].
Isaiah 35: 5-6 speaks of the great and many miracles That would have made of the Anointed One the Lord of Miracles where it is said in all the Gospels. Isaiah 35: 5-6. 5 Then will the eyes of the blind and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. 6 Then will the lame leap as an deer cry out of joy of the language mute because water will emerge in desert streams in the desert.
9 He spoke parables]].
Psalm 77: 2 I will open my mouth in a parable the mysteries of ancient times. Promises to be a habit of expose the teachings parables That Jesus actually used much in of course his earthly ministry. When asked by his disciples why of this her habit the Savior quoted an step of Isaiah 6: 9-10 That put in emphasize the hardness of heart of the people of Israel That "heard with the ears but not included looked without seeing... ". in practice Jesus implies That spoke parables because only those who had an sincere seeker of the deep spiritual truths are bothered of deepen the symbolic meaning of that That said the Master. Isaiah 6.9. He said "Go 'and referring to this people Hear ye indeed but understand not; observed as well but without knowing. 10 Make the heart of this people foul and hard of hearing blind his eyes and not see with the eyes nor hear with ears nor understand with the heart. nor is converted into so as to be healed. "
10 He lived in Galilee]].
Isaiah 8: 9.23: 1 speaks of the glory That he would see that land of Israel to because of the presence of the Messiah. Isaiah 8:23. because not there will be no darkness where he now is anguish. in the past he humbled the land of and Zebulun land of Naphtali but in make glorious the way of the future sea beyond the Jordan and the curve of the Gentiles. Isaiah 9: 1 That the people walked in darkness have seen a great light; That on those they lived in the land of gloom a light has shone. (see. Matthew 4: 12-16). Matthew 4: 12-16. (12 Having learned That the meantime John had been arrested he withdrew to Galilee 13 And leaving Nazareth he came to live in Capernaum by the sea in the territory of and Zebulun of Naphtali 14 because it that fulfilled what had been said for half of the prophet Isaiah: 15 the country of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali the way of sea of there of Jordan Galilee of the people; 16 the people which sat in Has darkness saw a great light on those That in dwelling land and shadow of death a light is doffing.
11 It would have been light and salvation for all the nations]].
Isaiah 42: 6. "I the Lord Has called for justice and you Has taken for hand; I Has formed and established as alliance of people and light of the nations 7 to open the eyes for the blind and to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon from the prison those That live in darkness.
Isaiah 49: 6. I said "That is too little you should be my servant for restore the tribes of Jacob and bring back the survivors of Israel. But I make you a light of the nations so that my salvation to the ends of the earth. "
Isaiah 56: 8. Oracle of Lord God That gathers the dispersed of Israel: "I will gather still his prisoners besides those already gathered."
Speaks of the fact that of the Anointed the Lord would be a light for all nations of the world and not only for the people of Israel. Simeon a devout man who warned by the Spirit he recognized in Jesus newly born That the Messiah awaited for a long time he spoke of as He of the "Light for lighten the Gentiles and the glory of thy people Israel "(Luke 2:32 - L).
12 The cornerstone]].
Psalm 118: 22-23. and Isaiah 28:16. Thus says the Lord God: "Behold I lay a stone in Zion a stone a precious cornerstone a sure foundation: he that believeth not falter. spoke of an the foundation laid by the Lord of a cornerstone solid and precious That however would have been rejected. Jesus applies to these steps himself (cf.. Matthew 21:42 and parallels) and Jesus said to them "Have you never read in the scriptures The stone That the builders rejected is become the cornerstone ; the Lord is Been done that and is wonderful in our eyes?. Again epistles talk about it.
13 Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem]].
Zechariah 9: 9-11 read: "... Your king is coming to you he is right and victorious humble and mounted on an ass above an the foal of a donkey..." (L ).
Psalm 8: 2. Oh Lord our Lord how is big is your name in all the earth above the heavens you exalted your majesty. 3 with the lips of children and of infants affirm your power against your opponents for to silence enemies and rebels.]] Spoke of the praise out of the mouth of children. Both these things were fulfilled when Jesus a week before of the her death entered triumphantly into Jerusalem mounted on of an the foal of a donkey while the children around to he shouted "Hosanna to the Son of David Blessed is he That is in the name of Lord Hosanna in the highest "(L - see Matthew 21).
14 It would be hated without reason]].
In Psalm 69: 478 David spoke of hatred of which he was subject for no reason. This step was also messianic as many other psalms. John 15: 24-25 [applies this text to Christ]. 24 If not I'd done in half to their works That Has anyone else ever did not they would have no sin; now they have seen and have hated both me and my Father. 25 This was to fulfill the word written in their Law: 'They hated me without reason.
15 It would have been betrayed by an friend]].
Always an psalm of David (Psalm 41: 9) it was said: "Even with the man who was living in peace... that ate my bread Has lifted up his heel against to me. "(L). in John 13:18 applies this same text to the betrayal of Judas. Jesus announces the betrayal of Judas (Mt 26: 21-25; Mr 14: 18-21; Lu 22: 21-23) "I do not speak of all of you; I know those That Has chosen; but because the scripture may be fulfilled: "He That eat my bread Has raised against of me on his heel."
16 predicted the anguish of first of Christ death]].
Psalm 22: 11-15 is one of the Messianic psalms for excellence. Vv. 11-15 is predicted the anguish That would have grasped the idea of Christ separation from the Father to because of of sin That world weighed in on of Him.
Psalm 22: 11-15. Not 11 get away from me for trouble is close and not there's no one That help me. 12 Many bulls have surrounded me strong bulls of Bashan have surrounded me; 13 they open their mouths wide against of me as an and ravening roaring. 14 are poured as water and all my bones are dislocated; my heart is as That wax melts in the midst of my bowels. 15 My strength is you parched as an earthenware and clay my tongue is attached to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death.
17 It would have been abandoned by the disciples]].
In Matthew 26:31 we read That Jesus foreseeing the terror That he would escape all the disciples we apply a prophecy in Zechariah 13: 7: Awake O sword against my shepherd against the man That is my companion. Oracle of the Lord of hosts. Smite the shepherd and both scattered the flock I will turn my hand upon the weak.]] "Then Jesus said unto them All ye Tonight a chance of me fall because is written: 'I will strike the shepherd and the sheep of the flock will be scattered. '"(L).
18. and thirty shekels the field of the potter]].
In Zechariah 11: 12-13 we find an amazing prophecy which God himself speaks through the prophet saying: "If you think good give me my wages and if not forbear. So they weighed for my wages thirty shekels of silver. and the LORD said unto me Cast it for the potter that magnificent price at which they valued me from! and I took the thirty shekels of silver and threw them into the house of the LORD for the potter. "(L). in Matthew 27: 9-10 is cited this prophecy. We know That Judas betrayed the Master for that figure. Then realizing of That what he had done he threw the thirty pieces of silver in the temple. The Pharisees said to him "There is lawful to put them in darling of the offers because they are the price of blood. And they took counsel and bought with the scope of that money potter of serve to bury strangers." (Matthew 27: 6-7 - L).
19 The abuse]].
Isaiah 50: 6/53: 7 Predicts That the Son of God would have been ill-treated the description of which is found in all the last chapters of the Gospels. [[Isaiah 50: 6. HAS my back to the smiters and my cheeks to those That I pulled out my beard; not HAS face away and the insults spitting. Isaiah 53: 7. Oppressed and he was afflicted and not opened her mouth; was as lamb led to the slaughter as of dumb sheep before its shearers and not opened her mouth.
20. taunts]].
In Psalm 22: 7-8 reads: "All That they see me mock of me and lengthen the lip they shake the head saying He is entrusted LORD let Him deliver him the helpers because like it. "in Matthew 27: 39-43 we read these same words with sarcasm by the doctors of the law and by the elders of the Jewish people before the cross.
21 His suffering and the atoning death]].
In one of the most touching distance of the Old Testament and of the whole Bible Isaiah (52:13. Behold my servant shall prosper will be honored and exalted very exalted. 14. as many were astonished of him for he was so disfigured than any man his appearance and other than the her form more than the sons of the man so they will marvel of 15 he many nations and kings to the front he shall shut their mouths because they see an never told them they did and will understand what that never had heard.) (Isaiah cap.53 read the whole chapter) the messianic prophet described the anguish ill-treatment and the atoning death of Salvatore. Also prophesied that it would have been buried in the tomb of an rich (Isaiah 53: 9. They gave him a burial with the wicked with the rich man in his death although not had done no violence neither was any deceit in her mouth.) as in fact happened because Jesus had been buried in the tomb of a new wealthy Joseph of Arimathea.
22 The death on the cross carved up the garments]].
Again in Psalm 22: 16-18 we spoke of "the hands and feet pierced" of divisions of clothes and of to throw the fate of a dress. All this came to pass in so amazing death of Christ when the Roman soldiers after they had crucified him they divided his garments as was the custom then. Psalm 22:16. For dogs have surrounded me; a bevy of I Has evildoers surrounded; I have pierced my hands and the feet. 17 I can count all my bones; and they look at me look at me. 18 They divide my garments among them and to pull lots for my clothing. ] Fulfillment [John 19: 23-24 quoting this psalm That precise the soldiers seeing That the tunic of Jesus was seamless and therefore of good workmanship they decided of pull it to have arisen between them.
23. vinegar to drink and of death heartbreak]].
Psalm 69: 20-21 spoke of broken heart pain] Psalm 69:20. Reproach Has broken heart and are full of heaviness; Has who waited to comfort me but in vain; Has who waited to comfort me but not there was none. 21 I have instead given gall for food and for thirst they gave me to drink of the vinegar.]... That you think it was this death of Jesus: That in fact Pilate marveled was dead so hurry since that the torment of the cross had been designed especially for last for many hours. in psalm also speaks of gall and vinegar offered to drink (cf.. Matthew 27: 333448).
24 "My God my God why have you forsaken me?" ]].
In Psalm 22: 1 we find the same phrase That Jesus spoke of before expire feeling separate from the Father of of he weighed all the sins of and the world just that earned him death (cf.. Matthew 27:46).
25 No bones would have been broken]].
In Exodus 24:46 The lamb must be eaten in a single house; not you will bring nothing of her the meat out of home and not they break a bone. and Numbers 9:12 not I will leave any of it until the morning and not nor break a bone. The celebrated according to all the ordinances of the Passover.
Among other instructions relating to Easter we find the prescription of eat lamb without breaking any bones. Now we know That the Passover in addition to remember the passage (from the meaning of the word 'Easter') from slavery to freedom in Israel also prefigured the atoning sacrifice of the promised Messiah. The Roman soldiers came - as it was in use - for break his bones of the legs and hasten death because it was for starting on Saturday they found him already dead and not touched him except pierce his side with for a spear make sure of once death (cf.. John 19:36 That in fact cites the two passages of the Old Testament mentioned above).
26. not would suffer the decomposition of the death]].
We read in Psalm 16:10: "Why do you not leave my soul in Sheol (= grave) and not That wilt your SANTO see corruption" (ND).
In Acts 2: 2731 / Acts 13: 35-37 apply this passage to the resurrection of Christ whose body not suffered the physical consequences of death.
27 The Ascension]].
In Psalm 24: 7-10. 7 O gates lift up your pediments; and ye everlasting doors stand up; and the King of glory shall come. 8 Who is this King of glory? is the LORD strong and powerful
the LORD mighty in battle. 9 Oh doors lift up your pediments;
stand up O everlasting doors and the King of glory shall come. 10 Who is this King of glory? is the LORD of hosts; he is the King of glory. [Pause]
Psalm 68:18 we find foretold the ascension of Christ to heaven after his resurrection.
Psalm 68:18 Thou hast ascended on high leading prisoners have you received gifts from men even from the rebels for to here your dwelling O LORD God. Psalm 68:18 Thou hast ascended on high you've done captivity captive thou hast received gifts among men even among the rebels so that you O LORD God might dwell there. (see. Acts 1: 9 / Ephesians 4: 7-8).
28. her priestly work in sky]].
In Zechariah 6: 12-13 That are specified the Messiah called "Bud" held in priestly work the Temple of God. Zechariah 612-13
12. shall speak: Thus says the Lord of hosts Behold an That man his name is Bud: break forth from itself and will rebuild the temple of the Lord. 13 Yes he will rebuild the temple of the Lord he will receive the glory he will sit by the sovereign on his the throne.
Just read the epistle to the Hebrews for finding explained everything.
=====================
332 Messianic prophecies of the Old Testament.
Introduction: for be able to deal in particular of the Messianic prophecy must be stated first some considerations on the formation of the Old Testament (AT) and on her transmission up to us.
The OT was written in a space of overruling the time 1100 years; ie from the time of Moses 1500 BC (BC) approximately until the time of the prophet Malachi 420 BC about.
Reading the AT arouse deep feeling and desire the ardent expectation of an the future Savior the Anointed One the Messiah (= the king consecrated the sacred anointing) That should eliminate the problems of background of humanity and in everlasting righteousness. This promised Messiah is described in every detail in the writings of the AT. But surprise find in many books of the AT statements concerning an "suffering Messiah" That had to be hated rejected and killed in cruel way from his the same people while he would suffer for the sins of a lot of. On the other hand the Old Testament speaks of an 'triumphant Messiah "That to her coming must establish an glorious reign of peace for the whole world. The apparent paradox is of easy solution if you think That these two different descriptions illustrate two appearances of the same Messiah but concern for different events different times.
The prophecies of 'triumphant Messiah "still concern the future; while those of 'suffering Messiah "had already past their full performance.
It is in this respect of most of 330 prophecies very accurate and truly differentiated. in the following pages will be conclusively demonstrated and on historical grounds That these prophecies are literally fulfilled in Jesus of Annunciation Nazareth historical character. But first he has to be exposed as be truly impossible That these prophecies are included in falsifications later period.
In the years 1947 and following were discovered in numerous caves of Qumran on the Dead Sea Biblical manuscripts That raised in unspeakable wonder all over the world. These manuscripts That in part dating back to the years preceding the Christian era contain all the books of the AT with the exception of the book of Esther. Since a large part of is located in the Messianic prophecies book of seer Isaiah the discovery of an full roll of this prophet took the utmost importance. The text is written on parchment of of leather goat in not Jewish vocalized. The roll consists of 15 pieces of skin sewn together is long and 7.34 meters 26 centimeters wide. On his extraordinary degree of conservation is really stunning.
Professor Andre Lamorte writes to purpose of the age of this text: "The complete scroll of Isaiah is now considered and finally copied the first of the Christian era. The opinions of the experts of the subject dating vary generally between the beginning of and the 1st century the end of the 2nd century BC "1
Since all of the messianic prophecies of a book of Isaiah found in this roll is absolutely impossible to doubt of their genuineness.
Now this scroll is located in possession of the young State of Israel. It was also photographed size and published for in full. Therefore in this form is now available for all interested parties in a book "Scrolls from Qumran Cave I" [2].
The genuineness of the Messianic prophecies in the other books of the AT it can also be demonstrated with the manuscripts of the Dead Sea. Frank Moore Cross writes in his book "The ancient library of and Qumran biblical science" That by the discovery of the manuscripts Qumran makes it impossible to believe an any book of the prophets of the front or rear (to say nothing of all of the Pentateuch) later wrote of the early years of 2nd century aC3. Front of the prophets are part of the books of Joshua Judges 1 and 2 and Samuel and 1 2 Re; rear of the books of the prophets Isaiah Jeremiah Ezekiel Hosea Joel Amos Obadiah Jonah Micah Nahum Habakkuk Haggai Zechariah and Malachi. The Pentateuch includes the five books of Moses. with what appears in glaring That way no step of these books can still be put in no doubt. As in will be recalled later also many Messianic prophecies contained in the Psalms must be drawn particular attention on the discovery of manuscript of an Psalter dating from the 2nd century BC [4]
Of the book are the prophet Daniel came to light numerous fragments. for half of the palaeography an the manuscript of the cave is IV Been dated to the end of 2nd century BC [4 °]
1. not messianic prophecies are found only in the prophets but also in the Law of Moses and in other writings of the AT.
2 There must be a difference between the prophecies which: a) God speaks of his the Messiah; b) men speak of the Messiah or c) talk about the Messiah himself.
3 Many prophecies of the AT are written not only over time but also the future using the past perfect or remote for thus accentuating the security of the Fulfillment of these prophecies. It is exactly of so-called "prophetic perfect." This expression is an "terminus technicus" particular to the Hebrew grammar. [9 °]
4 The "suffering Messiah" and the "triumphant Messiah" can be found in an and only the same step of the AT.
5 The author of the Messianic prophecy is Yahweh the God of the Bible. On his That name means HE AND 'THE ETERNAL ONE That or not MUTA. It is therefore always of the designation of the Being for and excellence in absolute sense. He not is subject to the changes of the past present and future so he could with the her foreknowledge of or things to come to introduce the future to his prophets so infallible.
The free will and the freedom of the decision of the man and to her correlative responsibility not to be excluded because of the messianic prophecy not because Yahweh the HAS predestined but only preconosciute. So the Bible speaks of the "prognosis" of God (see 1 Peter 1: 2 and also Romans 8:29) that is of the foreknowledge of the foreknowledge of God.
6 The [New Testament] That show by means of the Messianic prophecy can be "proven" in the true sense of the word That of Jesus Nazareth is the Messiah foretold. In Acts 9:22 is said of Paul and in of the Acts of the Apostles 18:28 Apollo That they have applied to Jews this kind of demonstration of the Christian faith. in the first case is used the original text the word "symbibazo" and in accordance with the word "deiknymi." "Symbibazo" means a demonstration by logical conclusions drawn from a quantity of material brought to demonstrations. "Deiknymi" means a test done with a clear and exposure clear the grounds of demonstration.
It can never be emphasized enough That no religion other than Christianity Biblical knows an this kind of conclusive proof!
======================
First chapter]
[The time of the coming of Messiah: The weeks of years the prophet Daniel.
The ninth chapter of prophet Daniel is of great importance for the Bible prophecy. in that chapter was named the exact moment of the coming of Messiah of the Anointed One as Chief.
The meaning of the expression "weeks of years"
The word "Shabua 'used in corresponds exactly to the Hebrew word" Eptade. "It designates a "composition of seven" or a "unit of seven."
In the context of Daniel 9 the word "Shabua" That otherwise also indicates a week of seven days it can only have the meaning of a "Eptade of years."
For the Jews of AT count weeks years or not was not new. Already in the Law of Moses God commanded the people of Israel of counting with an cycle of weeks of years. Every seven years the land was to be left uncultivated and every seven times seven years was to be celebrated on the feast of Jubilee (see Leviticus 25: 1-7 8-13).
Historical background].
In the year 606 B.C. and following the king Nebuchadnezzar brought the Jews into captivity to Babylon. Jerusalem the magnificent city was completely destroyed the temple of God and the palaces were razed or burned (see 2 Chronicles 36).
The exile of the Jews lasted seventy years as Jeremiah had foretold (Jeremiah 25: 11-12). Daniel found himself among the captives and then as well worked in this time as prophet.
The date of the decree of the rebuilding of Jerusalem.
From the first verse of the ninth chapter of Daniele is That the following prophecy in view of Messiah dates from the year 536 BC (The year of kingdom of king of the Medes Darius son of Ahasuerus (= approx 536 BC) an then in time when Jerusalem lay destroyed.
In verses 25 and 26 we read: "Know therefore and you mean! From the moment that is out of order and to restore rebuild Jerusalem until the appearance of an Anointed (Messiah) of an Chief you are and seven weeks 62 weeks. It will be restored and rebuilt and squares walls but troublesome times. After 62 weeks an Anointed One will be cut off but not for him. and the people of the prince That will destroy the city and the sanctuary... "(Version in Elberfeld Germany and Diodati other).
When the Romans in the year 70 A.D. put an end to the Jewish state he smashed the national identity of the tribe of Judah. Judah also lost the political leadership. Consequently the Messiah must have come before of that year. Jesus Has actually made her in appearance about 40 years before Israel!
In addition to
We also noted to Title complementary about the Babylonian captivity of Judah That then the national identity of not Judah s' was wrecked as this tribe was in an sense only moved geographically as nation. Ezekiel 8: 1 and 20: 1 is obtained That also in the time Judah was a political leader. The tribe came simply from that moment under foreign rule.
=======================
Second chapter. And descent origin of Messiah].
1. his family tree
Since about the year AD 70 (!) Was at least normal cases possible for every Jew of birth of go back with precision along his family tree since 1 Chronicles 9: 1 That testifies to all the people Israel was logged in genealogical tables. The possession of such a table was of personal interest eminent not as those who could prove thus her not lineage was recognized as an Israelite That fact involved a number of disadvantages (see Ezra 2: 59-62 and Nehemiah 7: 61-65).
When someone took in Israel a public position and with this was also to be known That was natural became known to her genealogical table or at least some well-known ascendants it reported. If someone whose genealogical chart not he was absolutely irreproachable he wanted to take a public position it would have been immediately rejected as incompetent.
These statements are preliminary very important in view of That fact in the Old Testament was prophesied to That some people the Messiah would be an their direct descendant.
The genealogical tables in the gospels of Matthew and Luke
In Matthew 1 is transmitted the genealogical table of Joseph the foster father of Jesus and in Luke 3 that of Mary the mother of Jesus. Latter table is of great importance for the 'further treatment.
Here is the table concerning Mary from Luke 3: 23-3816: "And Jesus when he also began to teach was about thirty years and was the son as credevasi of Joseph of Heli (father of Mary ) of Matthat of Levi of Melchi of Jannai of Joseph of Mattathias of Amos of Naum of Esli of Naggai of Maath of Mattathias of Semein of Josech of Joda of Joanan of Rhesa of Zerubbabel of Salathiel of Blacks of Melchi of Addi of Cosam of Elmadan of er of Jesus of Eliezer of Jorim of Matthat of Levi of Simeon of Judas of Joseph of Jonam of Eliakim of Melea of Menna of Mattatha of Nathan of David of Jesse of Jobed of Boos of Hall of Nahshon of Amminadab of Admin of Arni of Esrom of Fares of Judas of Jacob Isaac Abraham of Tara of Nahor of Seruch of Ragau of Falek of Eber of Hall of Cainan of Arphaxad of Sem of Noah of Lamech of Methuselah of Enoch of Jaret of Maleleel of Cainan of Enos of Seth of Adam of God. "
Promises of God to Abraham Isaac and Jacob]
Around 1920 BC God promised Abraham many times That the Messiah would be an his descending. in Genesis 22:18 we read for example: "... and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in thy seed."
Originate in the text reads "in your seed"; this is descendant the Messiah because of he is called in the [New Testament] that he will be a blessing for all the nations (Galatians 3:16).
Around 1900 BC God promised many times That the Messiah would be an descendant of Isaac.
In Genesis 26: 4 for example God said to Isaac "... all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in thy seed."
Genesis 28:14 And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth and you shall spread abroad to the west and to the east to and north to noon. and be blessed for and you for your descendants all the nations of the earth. was promised by God around 1760 B.C. to Jacob That he received in followed by the name of and Israel he was confirmed That the Messiah would be an his descending. Then around 1760 B.C. That had already been clearly revealed the Messiah would be an Jew. But which of these 12 tribes of Israel had to come?
The Messiah comes from the tribe of Judah].
Around 1690 BC the patriarch Jacob told his twelve sons That one in the future would have happened to their descendants. to his son Judah said "The scepter shall not will be removed from Judah nor a stick of control of between his feet until he comes He That will give the rest (in Hebrew Schilo) and to which obey peoples. "(Genesis 49:10)
The Messiah will be an descendant of Judas and not of Benjamin Joseph Naphtali Asher Gad Issachar Zebulun Levi Simeon and Reuben. 1 Chronicles 5: 2 (about 530 BC) says the same thing but with other words: "Judas was is true the prevalence among his brothers and from him and went down to the prince."
(The word prince [in Hebrew "Nagid '] is the same as that used in Daniel 9:25.)
But which family of Judah shall come the Messiah?
The Messiah descends from the family of Jesse].
In chapter 11: 1 the prophet Isaiah answers to the above question: "Then an branch out of the stem of Jesse and an offspring shall grow out of his roots."
(In Targum Jonathan Ben Uzziel14 this step is intended as messianic as is Been added the title "Messiah" as of ucidazione!)
That with what is asserted the Messiah will come from the family of the Jesse Bethlemite. But Jesse had eight sons (see 1 Samuel 16). Of those they would have been the ancestor of Messiah?
The Messiah is an a descendant of David].
At several points of the AT That being said the Messiah will be an son of David the son of Isai. Around 600 BC announced in Jeremiah 23: 5 (see 33:15): "Behold the days come saith the LORD that I will raise to David an righteous who will... and reason justice country. "
In Psalm 132: 11 is written "The Lord Has made to David of this oath truth" and not I will withdraw "I will set upon your throne n the result of your insides." God YHWH had pledged an oath to David (see also Psalm 88: 35-36 35 not violate my covenant not I will turn my promise. Has 36 on my holiness juror for once always of course not to lie to you David.) That the Messiah would be an a direct descendant of King David.
The confirmation of the genealogical table of Maria].
All these people are in the genealogical table of Mary mother of Jesus. With it is confirmed that even these prophecies found Fulfillment in Jesus of the story.
In Jewish people the her descent was made known publicly so it was called "Son of David" (see Luke 18: 38-39 Matthew 21: 915; 9:27 also 15:22). If not everything he had basis in reality the leaders of Judaism of that time they could make use of it as argument against the messianic claim of Jesus. However an did not so easily verifiable could be denied or challenged.
The historian Luke].
Since the genealogical table of Jesus is was handed down by Luke we must also say That Has archeology confirmed Luca as historical trusted accurate and precisely. The famous archaeologist William Ramsay Has That written the representation of the story is made by Luca unsurpassed for the her trustworthiness. A recapitulation of his judgment of Luke gained after a long period of investigation is reported in the book "The Bearing of Recent Discovery" p. 222.
==========================
2 The birthplace of Messiah [Prophecy of seer Micah].
The 8th century BC Micah Moresheth worked as prophet (see Micah 1: 1). He had to make known the birthplace of Messiah. in Chapter 5: 1 God says: "But you O Bethlehem Ephrathah for small to be among the thousands of Judah from you shall come forth for me one That will be ruler over Israel whose origins date back to ancient times from everlasting. "
In Palestine there were two cities under the name of Bethlehem one in Galilee (see Joshua 19: 15-16) and in one Judea. for distinguish the latter was called Bethlehem Ephratah.
The Messiah was to be born in this village to place an little 'more of 10 km to south of Jerusalem and That at the time of Jesus must have had less of 1000 inhabitants. The prophet Micah says it clearly and with many centuries before the safety of the fulfillment.
Of Confirmation [the New Testament]
In the [New Testament] That is confirmed Jesus was born in Bethlehem Ephratah. Matthew 2: 1 writes: "Now when Jesus was born Bethlehem of Judah in the days of King Herod..."
The physician Luke confirms this fact well in the 2nd chapter of his gospel. Consider in this link to what is Been written in chapter "The historian Luke"!
Micah 5: 1 is always well understood. Micah 5: 1. and you of Bethlehem Ephrata
for so little to be among the clans of Judah from you shall come forth for me one That to be ruler in Israel; its origins are from old from ancient days.
When Herod the Great learned That was born an the new king gathered all the chief priests and the scribes for to know what was the birthplace of Messiah. They answered him "In Bethlehem of Judah for thus it is written for half of a prophet." (Matthew 2: 5)
Not only for the learned it was clear this point but also for the people of people That according to John 7: 41-42 say: "But is perhaps from Galilee That is the Christ (the Messiah)? Scripture not HAS she said That the Christ cometh of the seed of David and from Bethlehem the village where David was? "
Further evidence That Micah 5: 1 was well understood is supplied by the translators of the Septuagint in which this verse was played so well That That it may be concluded including the translator much exactly what That in turned greek.
Micah 5 in Targum Jonathan.
The Targum Jonathan Ben Uzziel on the Prophets [14] also shows very clearly the Messianic interpretation That you gave to this step Judaism. for clearly the title "Messiah" there is which is placed directly in the text.
3 Jesus the Nazarene].
In the [New Testament] Jesus is said 18 times "Nazarene". This name comes from the Hebrew "Nezer" That means' branch '' sprout '' Branch shall. "
Among the contemporary people in the years 29-32 AD Jesus was generally known by the name of "Jesus of Nazareth." And 'That note so they called him even his greatest enemies (see John 18: 5-7). That so was fulfilled what the prophets had announced That he would be called "Bud" "Scion" "Branch shall."
The statements of the prophets Zechariah Jeremiah and Isaiah.
The prophet Zechariah (6:12) announced to the 520 BC the following about the Messiah: "Thus saith the LORD of hosts Behold an man That HAS the name Bud."
"Behold I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH." (3: 8) (These two steps of Zechariah are as indicated in the messianic Targum Jonathan. [14]
Jeremiah (23: 5) announced the first of nearly 80 years Zechariah: "Behold the days come saith the LORD that I will raise to David an righteous Branch who shall execute judgment and... Justice country. "Even the prophet Isaiah (4: 2) appointed him the Messiah in this way:" in that day the bud of the Lord will be the splendor and the glory. "
A game of the Hebrew words.
Although in the above-mentioned steps is used in the word jew "Zamach" ("Bud" "Branch" "Branch shall") That every Jew knew the Scriptures hearing of Jesus "the Nazarene" not could to less of connect the name "Nazarene" with the word "Zamach" of the aforementioned steps. The meanings of the names in the Bible have a great importance!
In the Old Testament there are also other references to the "Nazarene". in Isaiah 11: 1 reads for example: "Then an branch out of the stem of Jesse and an offspring shall grow out of his roots." the word used for the original text "Scion" is "Nezer "!
A question justified.
But now you have to wonder why not because Jesus was never called Bethlemite but only "Jesus of Nazareth" although he was born to Bethlehem.
The following hints should clarify as things are. When the terrible and cruel King Herod called the Great ordered the slaughter of the innocents (see Matthew 2) Joseph and Mary fled with the child in Egypt. After the death of Herod they returned and wanted to recover Bethlehem. But when Joseph learned That Archelaus the most cruel of the sons of Herod the Great [17] was to head of the Judea (actually it was for this kingdom to Herod Antipas the brother of Archelaus but an fit of rage Herod the Great just before of the her death she had changed the Old Testament and Archelaus in place place of Herod Antipas [18] Joseph s'intimorì and not he went there again.
So Joseph and Mary with the child Jesus went into the region of Galilee and established themselves to Nazareth. Jesus lived there for about 28 years. for this is why it was said "Jesus of Nazareth."
It 'amazing to see as the political situation has played an important part in the fulfillment of this messianic prediction.
Even today and often just by his critics Jesus is called "the Nazarene" or "Jesus of Nazareth ' so that the prophecy That the Messiah would be called" the Nazarene "is yet to be confirmed by his own enemies.
4 From Egypt].
What seems somewhat paradoxical when one sees That in the 8th century BC God did herald the prophet Hosea That the Messiah would come from Egypt. in Hosea 11: 1 reads: "And out of Egypt I called my son." in Matthew 2 you can read the Fulfillment of this prophecy.
Mary and Joseph That had fled Egypt following the order issued by Herod of kill small children of Bethlehem in the returned of again the land of Israel after the death of this ruler. So the Messiah actually came from Egypt.
Now everything seems clear: the prophets are expressed with all a lot of precision. The Messiah was to be born in Bethlehem in was to be called "Nazarene" and being called in the homeland of Egypt!
Third Chapter: Public presentation of Messiah (29-32 AD)
The precursor 1. The announcement of the prophets Malachi and Isaiah.
In the third chapter of prophet Malachi 3: 1 one hears the voice of the Messiah when he says:
"Behold I will send my messenger; and he shall prepare the way before to me. "
That just before the Messiah did the her appearance had to rise an prophet which would prepare the people of the imminent arrival of Messiah.
Isaiah also speaks of this precursor. He calls it "a voice of one That cries in desert." Isaiah 40: 3 19: "The voice of one crying: Prepare in the desert the way of the Lord."
In Luke 3: 4 reads: "And 'written in a book of the words of prophet Isaiah: There is a voice of one That cries in desert..." So Isaiah That does know this precursor will be desert detail not spoken through the prophet Malachi.
The function of precursor].
This precursor had the task of preparing the people of Israel in the next coming of Messiah in That way welcome him with willing heart. in the heart of this people not there must be nothing That could prove to be an impediment to the reception of promised Messiah; in fact his heart there had to be the "ways of Shrine" ("your ways" according to another version of this Psalm 84: 5). So in Isaiah 40: 4-5 is also said: "Every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill made low; places are steep holyllati the rough places become plain. Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and of all flesh for an shall see it. "
The announcement of this precursor found the his perfect in Fulfillment John the Baptist the son of Zechariah. The her the apparition took place about 29 A.D. That Luke writes he appeared in 15 years of reign of the Emperor Tiberius (Luke 3: 1).
From 450 years no other prophet].
The appearance of John the Baptist caused a sensation not because almost 450 years was born in Israel no other prophet (the last prophet of the Old Testament was Malachi). in a historical testimony of intertestamental period lasted 450 years is an lament the lack of prophets in Israel. in 1 Maccabees 9:27 we read: "There was great tribulation in Israel as not occurred since among them were missing the prophets." The Babylonian Talmud in the preparation refers That after the last prophets Haggai Zechariah and Malachi the Holy Spirit had departed from Israel.
How great was the sensation caused by the appearance of John the Baptist it can be seen from the fact That Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region running along the Jordan came to him (Matthew 3: 5).
The activity of John the Baptist].
John was baptizing in the desert and preached the baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. Making use of an language and hugely impressive shocking made him realize the people of Israel that the Messiah would come shortly and That everyone had to convert that is confess their sins to the living God repentance and to be suffer ready to meet the promised Messiah. But if not had accepted the Messiah and not they would repent not they could escape the wrath of fortune God. See in about the various reports on the occurrence of the gospels John the Baptist of the desert Judea (Matthew 3 Mark 1 and Luke 3 John 1).
It presents Jesus].
That is told in Matthew 3:13 Jesus also came for to be baptized by John when the latter was preaching at the Jordan. This agrees with Isaiah 40: 5 where we read: "And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh an shall see it together; for the mouth of the LORD has said. "
Jesus the Messiah the complexion of Yahweh AT began her activities immediately after the appearance in public scene of John the Baptist. to this way Isaiah speaks of the appearance of our Lord Jesus as of the "glory of the Lord revealed." And 'interesting to know about the allegations of an eyewitness. The disciple John testifies of the following Lord Jesus "full of grace and of truth we beheld her glory glory as one of the only begotten of the Father." (John 1: 14)
John the Baptist and Josephus].
That the historian Josephus he lived in 1st century AD confirms the historicity of John the Baptist in her the work "Antiquitates judaicae" (XVIII 5.2).
2 The activity of the public the Messiah].
The place of the appearance. When the Jew of the AT wanted to know what region or area of the country would start the Messiah his public service he had to read Isaiah 8: 23-9: 1: "But not the darkness they will last forever for the land which is now in anguish. as in times past God covered reproach of the country Zebulun and the land of Naphtali so in times of future cover the glory land close to the sea of beyond the Jordan Galilee of the Gentiles. That the people walked in darkness have seen a great light; That on those living in the land of the shadow of the death the light shines. "
Clarifying remarks of the previous steps The expression "great light" means that That the sun radiates (see Genesis 1:16). Here is such an expression used for the Messiah That in Malachi 4: 2 is said "the sun of justice" and in John 8:12 "the light of the world." He was to shine in the darkness of spiritual Israel as an the rising sun. That is derived from Isaiah the inhabitants of and Zebulun of Naphtali by the Sea of Tiberias (also called Lake of Gennesaret Sea of Galilee) for they would have seen this first light and therefore it would be covered of glory. After these observations on Isaiah is clear That the Messiah would start his the public service in the region of Galilee.
The confirmation given by [the New Testament].
In Matthew 4: 12 to 14.17 is written: "Now when Jesus had heard That John was put in prison he withdrew into Galilee. And leaving Nazareth he came and dwelt in Capernaum a city on the sea (said of or of Tiberias Galilee) to the borders of and Zebulun of Naphtali... From that time Jesus began to preach and to say Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is near. "
The same thing is also confirmed in Luke 23: 5 (see also Matthew 4: 18-25).
The miracles of the Messiah].
In several passages of the AT is asserted with That force to the appearance of Messiah there would be miracles. in Isaiah 35: 4-6 reads: "Say to those That have a fearful heart Be strong do not be afraid! Behold your God will come! He will come to to save you. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened and will be the ears of the deaf unstopped; then will the lame leap as an and deer the language of mute will sing of joy. "
In Isaiah 29:24 is prophesied still an another miracle: "The backsliding of spirit will learn salvation."
So through the Messiah will be cleaned up lame blind deaf dumb and of erring spirit.
The Fulfillment of prophecies confirmed by the [New Testament]
In the [New Testament] is confirmed with as clearly as possible That these and other miracles are were made by the Lord Jesus. For example in John 9 is an healed blind in Mark 2: 3-12 an paralytic in Matthew 15: 29-31 an and dumb in Mark 7: 31-37 an dull. for That the concerns of the erring spirit not you can think of moody Matthew 4:24 That too was healed?
The Fulfillment confirmed by Josephus].
The Fulfillment of these prophecies not it is confirmed only by the writings of [the New Testament] but also from other historical sources. The Jewish historian Josephus writes of in her new opera 'Antiquitates judaicae "published in the year 93 AD the following interesting reference to the Lord Jesus:" In that time (ie at the time of Pilate 26-36 AD ) Jesus appeared to him an wise man That miracle worker performed many miraculous works and was an teacher for the men That gladly accepted the truth. "[20]
The authenticity of quote of Flavio].
Here we are in possession of a confirmation truly amazing That Has the Lord Jesus performed miracles brought about by an Jew lived in the 1st century and That not was not even a Christian. This step was put in questioned by various critics as "Christian interpolation back." for to be precise from the point of view of criticism of texts (ie examination of old manuscripts handed down) not it seems justified to even the slightest doubt about to such a forgery.
There is to add the interesting finding That Eusebius (263-339) Has known this step because it brings him twice in his writings. Once in the "History of Church» I and 12 once in the "Demonstratio Evangelica" III 5.
There is also to be noted that among others Dr. H. St. John Thackeray one of the most important scholars of English issues relating to Josephus HAS of That newly established this step shows certain linguistic peculiarities That macaws characteristics of Josephus!
The miracles are confirmed by the Talmud].
In the Babylonian Talmud (Tractate Sanhedrin 43a) is admitted That in Israel are in fact the successes of the miracles worked by the Lord Jesus. Yet it is spoken in a blasphemous way of describing them magical operations (see Matthew 24:24).
The testimony of Justin Martyr].
Further confirmation of the miracles of Lord Jesus is found in Justin Martyr (who died around 165 AD). in his "Dialogus cum Tryphoni Judeo" chapter 69 Justin is to speak of the reproaches of the Jews to the Lord Jesus. mention That he will is called the Lord Jesus magician ("Magos") and even traviatore of people ("Laoplanos").
The testimony of Origen].
A further document almost the same content is at Origen (185-254 AD) That he speaks in his wrote "Contra Celsum» 1.28. Origen refers to you one written by an anti-Christian compiled certain Celso towards 178 AD
Psalm 72]. Again Psalm 72: 12-13 as of rest well in many other passages of AT we speak of the public activity of Messiah. There is written:
"For he will deliver the needy That cries and the poor That not HAS those who aid. He will have compassion of and unhappy of needy and shall save the souls of the poor. "
That the needy cries].
In Luke 18: 35-43 is written: "That came to pass as he drew near to Jericho an certain blind man sat by the way side begging; and hearing the crowd That passing That asked what it was. and That they told him Jesus of Nazareth was passing. Then he cried out Jesus son of David have mercy of me! and That those preceded rebuked him for quiet; but he cried the more Son of David have mercy of me! and Jesus stopped and commanded That he had brought him; and when he was come near he asked him: that wilt thou have me do for you? And he said Lord that I may receive my sight. and Jesus said to him: Retrieve the view; thy faith hath made thee whole. and in that moment he received his sight and followed him glorifying God; and all the people saw it gave praise to God. "
That the poor not HAS those who aid].
The invocation of "That poor not HAS those who aid 'is eg. In John 5 where it speaks of an That man was sick already for 38 years and although he had speak of not have none That assist him. He too was healed by Jesus.
Of compassion and unhappy of needy].
Luke 13:10 and following tells of of compassion for the Messiah an be unhappy or weak as can also be translated the Hebrew word of Psalm 72 Compassion for an poor or for an beggar is eg. well described in John 9 (see verse 8).
The Prophet].
Having now written of some of works of Messiah we want to deal briefly of words spoken by the Messiah. in Deuteronomy 18 Moses announced as the Messiah a prophet. This step was always well understood as messianic prophecy That among other things result from the findings of Qumran in which speaks of this coming Messiah. Here is the text of Deuteronomy 18: 15.17-19: "The Lord your God will raise up an as prophet me in to the middle you from among your brethren; to that you will listen... and the LORD said unto me What That Han said is good; I will raise them an as prophet you of from among their brethren and I will put my words in her mouth and he will tell them everything That I shall command him. and That will happen if someone not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name I will require it of him. "
The fulfillment].
Jesus Has demonstrated of also be a prophet making predictions about the future which can easily be shown Fulfillment. [21]
To be precise the Hebrew word used for "prophet" not only indicates an predictor of things to come but also in kind who announced the will of God. This is important because from Psalms 39 : 10. Has preached righteousness in the great assembly; see not keep closed lips O Lord thou knowest. That is the Messiah will announce in Israel (the Great Assembly) faithfulness salvation mercy and truth of justice God. Fulfillment of everything is in the Gospels (see eg. the Sermon on the Mount; Matthew
5). Now however raises the question of as you know the people of Israel would react against of his the Messiah.
3 The reaction of the people of Israel toward his the Messiah] One of the greatest paradoxes
The promised Messiah and much desired was to be rejected and hated by his people! So foretold by the prophets and so you actually fulfilled with the Lord Jesus.
In Isaiah 49: 7 is spoken of as the Messiah of 'he that is despised by the men detested by the nation. "
2 " Psalm 69: 4 is heard to complain of the Messiah That hate he was part of the opposite people:" Those That hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; are powerful That those I would like destroyed and That to wrong I are enemies. "
Psalms 40:10. Even in his friend whom I trusted he That ate my bread
up against of me his heel.
In Psalm 109: 3-4 says: "Me from besieged with words of hatred and have made me war without a cause. Instead of love That harbor them I macaws adversaries and I will not That I pray. "
The leaders of the Jewish people despise the Messiah].
In the book of prophet Isaiah is mentioned contempt of Messiah by the heads of the Jewish nation. in Isaiah 53: 2-3 is written:
"He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him nor appearance that we should desire. And despised rejected by men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief equal to the one before which hide their faces he was despised and we not it made no estimate. "
The expression "Ishim" used Hebrew translated here with men means among other things powerful people and on the high condition! 22
The Messiah is stretched traps]
The Messiah says in Psalm 35: 7 "For without cause tense of me from hiding their network without cause they have digged a pit for take my life."
Several times compared comes in [the New Testament] That to the Messiah were part of the thesis pitfalls spiritual guides of and Judaism That you want to grasp do it with leading questions (see Luke 11: 53-54; 14: 1-5; Mark 12: 13-17; see also Luke 6: 7).
Murderous intentions against the Messiah]
In Psalm 31:13 the Messiah for more complains of something worse: "For I have heard the defaming of many fear on every side to me while they will recommend to my detriment and devise of take my life. "
Mark 3 illustrates the performance: "And the Pharisees went forth and straightway took counsel with the Herodians against of he with the aim of kill him." (3: 6)
John 11:53 also confirms the Fulfillment of Psalm 31:13.
rejected the 15 of Nisan 32 A.D.
The Messiah had to be completely rejected by both the populace That by its leaders. as manifested in so impressive in the total rejection the 15th of Nisan 32 AD when Jesus was of opposite to Pilate!
"And Pilate called together the chief priests and the magistrates and the people said unto them Me have ye done this before comparir man as subversive of the people; and behold after having it in looked at your presence not HAS found in any of him of guilt which the accused; and nor yet Herod for he has sent him back to us we and behold he not Has That did nothing is worthy of death. I will therefore chastise him release him. But they shouted all together: It's' dying man and deliver us Barabbas! (Barabbas had been thrown into prison to reason of in a sedition occurred and city of an murder.) And Pilate again spoke to them desiring to release Jesus; but they cried out: Crucify him crucify him! and for the third time he said to them But That evil Has he done? I do not HAS found nothing he That deserves death. I will therefore chastise him release him. But they were urgent with loud voices asking That to be crucified; and their cries for finished have the upper hand. and Pilate decreed That he did what That wondering. "(Luke 23: 13-24)
4 Judas Iscariot].
In the previous chapter we wrote of and enmity of hatred of the people of Israel against the Messiah. But in the Old Testament it comes in especially various points of an determined man of That the people of Israel he will hate the Messiah in an a very special way. Has this person previously announced found his Fulfillment in full Judas Iscariot. These are the steps of such as Psalms 41 55 69 the 109 and Zechariah 11.
Psalm 41].
In Psalm 41: 9 for the Messiah speaks the mouth of David: "Even the man with whom I was living in peace (ie my friend) in which I was confident That ate my bread Has lifted up his heel against of me. "
The friend and the confidant].
This man must therefore be an friend of the Messiah. Judas Iscariot was actually during the nearly three years when he was a disciple of Lord Jesus (see the stories and the gospels Matthew 26:50 where it says "friend"). of this man is also said That the Messiah had confidence in him. not HAS perhaps what was said found his in Fulfilment That done the Lord Jesus entrusted the keeping of the common purse to Judas? (John 12: 6; 13:29).
The bread of the Messiah].
Psalm 41: 9 is of rich details. This enemy had to eat the bread (Hebrew: "Lechem") of Messiah. Therefore this traitor was to receive the Messiah an morsel of bread and eating first of to 'lift the heel "against the Anointed One.
The Fulfillment is found in John 13: 21-30 which describes the last of Easter the Lord Jesus with His disciples:
"Having said these things Jesus was troubled in spirit and so openly expressed: in truth in That truth I tell you one of you shall betray me. The disciples looked at one another standing in of doubt those who spoke. Or to table leaned on the breast of Jesus he was one of his disciples That Jesus loved him Simon Peter therefore motioned to him and said to him Di ' who is one of which he speaks? And he stooped down on the breast of Jesus he asked him 'Lord who is it? Jesus answered and said 'that to which I will give a sop when I have dipped it. and an dipped bite and took it he gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot. and then after the morsel Satan entered into him. for which Jesus said unto him That That do do quickly. But none of the guests understood why he said so. In fact some thought because Judas had the bag That Jesus had said to him: Buy those things That we have need of for the feast; That that is he should give something to the poor. He then having received the sop went out immediately; and it was night. "
Psalm 55].
In Psalm 55: 12-14 the Messiah says: "For not is Been an enemy That to me Has made a reproach; otherwise I would have entailed; not is Been That one I hated to levarmisi against; otherwise I would have hid myself from him; but it was you man That I esteemed as my equal my companion and my intimate friend. We had sweet counsel together together we went upon our way through the crowd to the house of God. "
I trust relationships].
Also in this step the traitor is called "friend" from the Messiah. It is also repeated once again That the Messiah had confidence in him. For almost three years Judas Iscariot was the trusty companion of Lord Jesus together with the other disciples and thus the fulfilled in Psalm 55:14 very precisely:
Go to the house of God].
That is the Gospel accounts Judas Iscariot was often in temple with Jesus and the other disciples. Precisely these occasions often agreed in Temple a great multitude for listen to the speeches of Lord Jesus (see in about eg. Luke 19: 47-21: 38 especially Luke 19: 47-48 in connection with 2045)! So you literally fulfilled also '"together we went upon our way through the crowd to the house of God"!
Reproach].
From Psalm 55: 12-14 That is also this traitor will reproach to the Messiah. not it is here forced to immediately think of the kiss of Judas? not it was an terrible shame when Judas Iscariot gave Jesus the Lord denouncing him with an kiss (see Matthew 26: 47-50)?
It 's true That we often speak of the kiss of Judas but who Has already heard of an greeting of Judah? in Matthew 26:49 we read That Judas greeted Jesus with these words: "Chaire Rabbi!" when betrayed him with an kiss.
Usually this greeting is translated simply "Hail Master." But if you want a literal translation from the greek of this formula greeting it means "Hail Master." That I salute and blasphemous treacherous considering the imminent death terrible and cruel of you Lord Jesus crucified!
The 30 pieces of silver].
In Zechariah 11 (about 520 BC) speaks for the 30 pieces of silver Judas Iscariot who betrayed the Lord Jesus. In verse 12 the Messiah says: "And they weighed for my wages; 30 pieces of silver. "
In Matthew 26: 14-16 he finds the exact Fulfillment: "Then one of the twelve called Judas Iscariot went to the chief and said to them" What will you give me and I will deliver him? And they counted out 30 pieces of silver. and from that time he sought should of betray him. "
The death of traitor: the his office].
Following his betrayal Judas Iscariot committed suicide (Matthew 27: 5). The her the end was foretold in Psalm 109: 8-9: "Let his days be few an let another take his office. Let his children be fatherless and to her his wife a widow. "
Which occupied the office of Judas Iscariot That now had to switch to an other? Luke 6: 13-16 tells us That Judas had received from the Lord Jesus the office of apostle. After the death of Judas Iscariot went to this office an of course Matthias (see Acts 1: 21-26).
Concluding remarks].
A mo 'of the conclusion must be clearly That said not Judas Iscariot was predestined to this Act. God the One That is in forever (Yahweh!) That not is subject to the changes of the past present and future as were exhibited already in the Introduction HAS known before That Judas Iscariot would be handed over to the enemies of the Messiah his own will and therefore could make known to the prophets with many centuries in advance the actions and the intentions of this man.
The fourth chapter. The sentence the execution and the resurrection of Messiah.
1 The sentence
In the previous chapter was treated the paradox of rejection of the promised Messiah as part of the people of Israel. in this will be dealt with some of the prophecies That explained the point of culminantr rejection condemnation and that is the crucifixion of Messiah. in Psalm 69: 4 we hear the voice of the Messiah in his lament "Those That hate me without a cause are more than the hairs of my head; are powerful ones That and I would like to destroy That to wrong I are enemies. "
It was already mentioned the lament of Messiah in Psalm 31:13: "For I have heard the defaming of many fear on every side to me but they are recommended to and my damage devise of take my life. "(see Mark 3: 6 and John 11:53)
Hit of condemnation].
This hatred and this refusal That meant the Messiah promised in the Old Testament were to be sentenced to death. in known chapter of 53 the prophet Isaiah is described with the verb in the perfect prophetic as the Messiah was to be conducted for be condemned: "He was oppressed he humbled himself and not opened his mouth. as the lamb brought him to the slaughter as to the sheep dumb before who the shearer he not he opened his mouth. "(Isaiah 53: 7)
One does not feel perhaps that being said with clarity and evidence in the Gospels? He allowed himself to take away without resistance even voluntarily.
Witnesses unjust].
In Psalm 35: 1112 feels Messiah That he says "unfair witnesses rise up... I make it bad for well..." in Psalm 38:14 expresses the same reality: "I am as an that man not listen and in whose mouth not is replication of kind. "
Perfect Fulfillment of this prophetic word is found in Matthew 26: 59-62: "And the chief priests and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus for him to death; and not found none although they had many false witnesses. Finally two witnesses came forward That said This man HAS said: I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days. and the high priest stood up in the feet he said not You answer nothing? That to testify against them you? But Jesus held his peace. "
In this step appears all her evidence hatred suffered against the Messiah. It had to be murdered to all costs even though he only made them of and well not it could be accused of any wrongdoing.
Maltreatment: in Isaiah 50 is predicted with the way when the Messiah will be discussed in this session of the court: "I HAS my back to who smote me and my cheeks to who I pull out the beard; I will not HAS and hid not my face from shame spitting. "(Isaiah 50: 6)
Matthew 26: 66-67 describes the performance: "And they answered and said It 'guilty of death. Then did they spit in and face gave him his fists; and others slapped him. "
The prophet Micah makes known details of this session court: "They strike with the rod of his cheek judge of Israel (ie of Messiah)" (Micah 4:14)
Matthew 27:30 describes its fulfillment: "And they spit upon him and took the reed and struck him on the head."
The scourging].
John 19: 1 says "So then Pilate took Jesus and scourged him."
Reading of this scene of flagellation you should know That flagella then used by the Romans were strips of leather attached to an and handle bringing the end of pieces sharp metal stones and even snaps That tearing of the flesh and scourged the bleeding reduced to a shapeless mass. in Psalm 129: 3 speaks prophetically of the Messiah her flagellation: "Of the ploughmen plowed upon my back delightsomely tracing their furrows long."
The crown of thorns].
In Matthew 27:29 is That said the Lord Jesus was placed upon her head a crown of thorns. It was of thorns That could reach 5-8 inches. Dried were tough and acuminate as needles. If to someone was imposed on the head like a crown of thorns the skin was torn in it countless points rose up in great pain blood dripping abundant hair was matted and it hung in disorder. A show highly disturbing! Now you understand the words of Isaiah 52:14 with which centuries earlier had testified of God his the Messiah: "How many seeing him were dismayed son was so undid his so as not countenance an opinion more man and on his so as to not look more than an opinion son of man. "
2 The crucifixion].
In Psalm 22 an Psalm of David was described in minute detail the crucifixion of Messiah a thousand years before That the fact happen. The crucifixion itself not had never been the kind of with conviction that the Jews punished an malefactor (the Jews stoned often the transgressors; see eg. Leviticus 20: 2 and other steps). The execution by crucifixion was practiced only centuries after the writing of Psalm 22 first by the Romans.
On the Jewish side Psalm 22 was interpreted as messianic book Pegista Rabbati. The pain you are understood as pain scapegoats! 22a.
We follow in the Psalm the word: "To the chief Musician. On Cerva of aurora. Psalm of David.
(1) My God my God why hast thou forsaken me? Why are you away without succor without listening to the words of my groaning? (2) My God I cry out of day and you not answer; of night again and not HAS posing no. And yet you are the HOLY YHWH That sit on the praises of Israel. Our fathers trusted in you; and trusted thou didst deliver them. They cried to you and they were saved; confided in you and not they were confused.
(6) But I are an worm and not an man; a reproach of men and of the despised the people.
Everyone who sees me mocks of me; stretches the lip shaking his head saying: Ei gets back in the Lord; let Him deliver him; rescue him because He delights!
Yes you're the one That took me from the womb; have made me riposar trusting the breasts of my mother. to I was cast upon thee from my birth you are my God from the womb of my mother. not you turn away from me for trouble is close and not is none That help me. Many bulls have surrounded me strong bulls of Bashan surrounded me; to open their mouths wide against me as an and ravening roaring. (14) as I am That water spreads and all my bones are out; my heart is as the wax is melted in the midst of my bowels. (15) My strength is dried up as terra cotta and my tongue clings to the palate; you lay me in the dust of death. (16) For dogs have surrounded me; a bevy of criminals surrounded me; they pierced my hands and the feet. I can count all my bones. And they look at me look at me; (18) divide my garments among them and to throw cast lots for my garment. Thou therefore O LORD not walk away That you you're my strength make haste to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword my only one out of the paw of lion. You will answer me from the horns of the buffalo. I will declare your name to my brethren and praise you in among the congregation. O ye That fear the LORD praise him! Glorify you all the seed of Jacob and all ye the seed of Israel the fear of you him! Because he not HAS despised nor abhorred the affliction of distressed and not HAS hid her face from him; but when HAS cried to him he heard him. You are the subject of my praise in the great assembly; I will fulfill my vows in the presence of those That I fear. The meek shall eat and will be satisfied; That those seek the LORD will praise him; their hearts shall live forever. All the ends of the earth will remember of and Lord will be converted to him; and all the families of nations will worship in thy presence. Because the Lord belongs the kingdom and he lords it over the nations. All the earth shall eat and opulent worship; That all those and go down into the dust not can remain in life to bow down before him. Posterity will serve him; you speak of Lord to the next generation. And they shall come shall declare her justice and to the people That as yet unborn Has he operated. "Hands and feet pierced. in verse 16 the Messiah says: "For dogs have surrounded me; a bevy of criminals surrounded me they pierced my hands and the feet. "
The expression "Dogs" was used to designate the not the Jews (see Matthew 15: 21-28). [23] It was to be an of the group not Jews a band of foreign That forerebbe the Messiah and the hands feet [24] ie That crucify him.
Matthew 27: 27-31 confirms this fact with very clearly: "Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into hall and gathered to him the whole band. and they stripped him and put him an scarlet cloak; and platted a crown of thorns they put it on his head and a reed in his right hand; and to knee before him and mocked him saying Hail King of the Jews! and spit on him and took the reed and struck him on the head. and after they had mocked him they stripped him of mantle and clothed him of his garments; for then they led him away crucify him. "
Clothes and divided drawn].
Is in verse 18 said of these not Jews That first divide the clothes of Messiah and then throw the lot on her gown. Even these details have found the precise fulfillment: "Then the soldiers when they had crucified Jesus took his garments and made four parts a part for each soldier and the tunic. Now the tunic was without seam woven for from the top throughout low. They said therefore among themselves not rend to pull to fate those who touch it. "(John 19: 23-24)
Disjointed bones].
In verse 14 the Messiah says: "... and all my bones are out."
Which words and terrible shocking! The limbs That now hang from the nails driven in and hands feet are disconnected from the weight of the body of crucified!
And sweat thirst].
The great affliction and the sweat the thirst of Messiah suffered indescribable suffering are expressed by verses 14 and 15: "I am as That water it spreads... My strength is dried up as terra cotta and my tongue clings to the palate. "
And light darkness].
In verse 2 we speak of intermittent periods of light and of darkness "My God I cry out of day and not you answer: of still night and not HAS no rest."
Mark 15: 25.33-34 shows its fulfillment: "It was the third hour when they crucified him... and when the sixth hour darkness came for all the land until the ninth hour."
Even in Isaiah 50 (as in Psalm 88.1) speaks of this darkness. with closely connected with the condemnation of the Messiah God says in Isaiah 50: 3: "I clothe the heavens of black and I give them an for sackcloth covered."
Confirmation of darkness left by Tallo.
The darkness lasted three hours on the day of crucifixion of Lord
Jesus is also confirmed by sources outside the Bible. The historic Samaritan Tallo That wrote to Rome in the year 52 AD he spoke his now untraceable "Histories." However an their shards [New Testament] or is in Julius Africanus to the first of the third century AD It reads: "Tallo said in the third book of its That the darkness was due to an solar eclipse unreasonably as it seems to me." [25]
The objection of Julius Africanus is very important because really not may have been treated of an solar eclipse since it would not because for three whole hours of and total darkness because then of time the full moon is impossible that occurrence of a total eclipse the sun (the crucifixion took place on the 15th of Nisan 32 AD and towards the middle of this month the moon was full). It needs to be treated of an miracle That though the prophets have predicted as accurately as possible and That can be documented very well with historical sources.
And ridicule shame].
In verses 6-8 the Messiah speaks of and derision mockery of That will have to endure from all sides: "But I are an worm and not an man; a reproach of men and despised by the people. Everyone who sees me mocks of me; stretches the lip shaking his head saying: Ei gets back in the Lord; let Him deliver him; save it because like it! "
The [New Testament] shows in Matthew 27: 39-44 as even this was fulfilled: "And those That of passing there reviled him wagging their heads and saying Thou That destroy the temple and in three days rebuild it save yourself if you are the Son of God and come down of cross! Similarly with the chief priests and the scribes elders mocking said: has and saved others not is able to save himself! By That is the King of Israel descend now of cross and we will believe in him. He trusted in God; let him deliver him now if he should like it because HAS said: I am the Son of God. and in the same way the robbers who were crucified with vituperavano also him. "
Numbered with the transgressors; to her merciful intercession].
Isaiah 53:12 That speaks of the two criminals were crucified with Jesus as well as of the her merciful int [New Testament] for ercessione his tormentors: "He gave himself to death and is Been numbered with the transgressors (or criminals) because he HAS bore the sin of many and HAS interceded for the transgressors. "(See Luke 23: 32-34:" Now two others two criminals were led away with for him be put to death. and when they came to the place called and there they crucified him the criminals one to and right the other to left. and said Jesus Father forgive them for they not they know what that they do! ")
Gall and vinegar].
A further detail of the crucifixion is found in Psalm 69:21 where the crucified Messiah says: "Indeed I have given of gall for food and in my thirst they gave me vinegar to ber of the 'vinegar. "for is in the gall Hebrew" Rosch "and in greek' Chole '. [25a]
That this passage attests the Messiah was first given gall for food and then vinegar for the her thirst. The Fulfillment for the gall (greek: "Chole"!) Offered to the Messiah is found in Matthew 27: 32-35: "Or found an in coming Simon of Cyrene Simon by name and forced him to take the the cross of Jesus. and come to an the place called Golgotha that means: location of Skull they gave him to drink of wine mixed with gall; but not Jesus he wanted to drink. Then after they had crucified him... "
The description of in a way which gave him vinegar to the Messiah is found in Matthew 27: 45-48: "Now from the sixth hour there was darkness for all the land until the ninth hour. and about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice Eli Eli lama sabachthani? that is to say My God my God why hast thou forsaken me? But some of the bystanders hearing it said This man is calling Elijah. and at once an of them ran to take a sponge; and filled it with vinegar and putting it in on a reed and gave him 'a drink. "
The death].
The conclusion of all these unfathomable pain is expressed in Psalm 22:15 where the Messiah prays to his God "You lay me in the dust of death."
In Psalm 31.5 is the last word of the crucified Messiah: "I commit my spirit your hands" (see the respective Fulfilment in Luke 23:46).
In the tomb of an rich].
An important Messianic prophecy is found in Isaiah 53: 9 where it is written: "He had been assigned to the grave with the wicked but in her death he is Been with the rich not because he had done no violence neither v 'had been fraud in her mouth. "
The malefactors were often burned to the west of Jerusalem in of fire Tophet. This then would be the tomb of condemned. But Isaiah 53: 9 That you see not God no one else will outrage after the death of Messiah and That the Messiah from the dead will rest in an rich. The Fulfillment of this prophecy is found in Matthew 27: 57-60: "And when it was evening it was an of a rich man Arimathea named Joseph who had also become a disciple of Jesus. These presented himself to Pilate asked for the body of Jesus. Pilate commanded That the body to be released. and Joseph took the body wrapped it in an net linen cloth and placed him in his own new tomb That had hewn out in the rock and he rolled a great stone to the door of shrine he went away. "
In Hebrew the word "death" of Isaiah 53: 9 is the plural thereby seeking to express the agony of this kind of death. [26]
The duration of the life].
It is also an Old Testament That reference to their ages will the Messiah dying? in Psalm 102: Even an Messianic Psalm Messiah complains praying his God for the fact That must die "I HAS 'Oh my God not take me away in half of the my days "(Psalm 102: 24) the expression" in the midst of my days "is easy to understand if you know the Psalm 90 in which is spoken of short of time of life the man of this land. in verse 10 reads: "The days of our years to come seventy years... and that That their pride not is That and labor vanity; it will soon pass and we fly away there. "
If so the probable duration of the life of an Jew was average of 70 years it is clear that That we mean with the expression "in the midst of my days." Has the Lord Jesus also fulfilled this prophecy since he died to about 36 years. He began his public service when he was approximately 33 years (Luke 3:23) and worked almost three years until her death in cross.
No broken bone].
A prediction is somewhat strange written for the Messiah in Psalm 34:20: "He (Yahweh) preserves all the bones of to him not one of them is broken."
If you compare this prophecy with his fulfillment it seems quite clear. in John 19: 31-33 we read: "Then the Jews because the bodies not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath (because it was the preparation and that day of Saturday was an great day) asked him to Pilate That they fiaccate their legs and they might be taken away. So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and then of the other That was crucified with him; But when they came to Jesus as they saw him already dead not break His legs. "
The exact location of the her death].
The exact spot where the Messiah was to die was already known from the time of Abraham (about 1900 BC).
In Genesis 22: 1-19 describes the history of the sacrifice of Isaac. It took place on an upstream of the land of or of Moriah Moriah (according to another version: Hebrew "Erez hammorijah»! see Genesis 22: 2).
Moriah is the mountain of temple of Jerusalem (cf.. 2 Chronicles 3: 1). Therefore the 'country of Moriah "or of Moriah is simply the region surrounding Jerusalem. Isaac not found his death because as the son of Abraham was only an Typos an the model in view of the Messiah. To the place of sacrifice of Isaac (it was not then of Mount Moriah itself but of a mountain next to it!) Abraham gave the name "Yahweh jireh." (The Lord sees and provides see verse 14 and verses 7-8). That means God would take care of that mount for the real to the victim whose story aims typologically (as an example). Thus Genesis 22: 14b says: "For this we say today: In the mount of the Lord it shall be seen."
Is not perhaps actually died in the country of Moriah our Lord Jesus out of Jerusalem on the hill of Golgotha? (see John 18 + 19; Hebrews 13:12). in thus HAS also fulfilled this prophecy!
The importance of and passion of death of the Messiah].
In order to illustrate the importance of and passion of death of Messiah you must take a few steps back. The Bible states many verses of the AT (eg. In Psalm 14) and of the [New Testament] That all men have sinned without exception. Romans 3:23 says "There is no distinction; For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. "
God however is an and HOLY God infinitely right (Joshua 00:19 Psalm 7:11) and not can in no way tolerate or pass over sin ie all of That is in contradiction with his or her thoughts person (see Habakkuk 1:13). And therefore would have to curse condemn every man. But the Bible also says That God is love (1 John 4: 8) and therefore not and wants to curse condemn anyone even 'That wants all men to be saved "says 1 Timothy 2: 4! So it became necessary to That God found a solution for we can offer to men in according to her and holiness justice and forgiveness of sins eternal salvation. But this was only possible if an perfect man without sin and HOLY YHWH sopportasse as substitute the judgment of God. So God sent his and the Son he did become man Scripture says expressly of That the Lord Jesus he not no sin (1 Peter 2:22) and in [the New Testament] calls him seven times the "Right." When the Lord Jesus was hanging on the cross God took upon him the sins of all those That they believed in and he That still believe. Yes in three hours of darkness he ident the [New Testament] ificò with all these sinners and dumped out of he of all judgment the wrath of God (1 Peter 2:24 2 Corinthians 5:21 Isaiah 53:10). in these three hours completely abandoned God and the Messiah so they had to issue the terrible cry: "My God my God why have you forsaken me?" (Psalm 22: 1 Matthew 27:46) So Jesus the Messiah died (Matthew 27:50) leading to a term the redemptive work (John 19:30)! Now God can give the perfect pardon to every sinner That relies on the Lord Jesus as pent offender [New Testament] ito and converted in confessing praying for their sins (1 John 1: 9); but always according to the blood shed by Jesus on Golgotha (Ephesians 1: 7). We read in Hebrews 9:22 That without shedding of blood is excluding That there can be forgiveness of sins. in this time they found Fulfillment well as the words of Isaiah 53: 3-6: "He was despised and abandoned by men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief equal to the one before whom hide their face. He was despised and we not it made no estimate. And nevertheless That were our diseases he bore and carried our sorrows of those which had been loaded; and we did esteem him stricken smitten by God and afflicted But he is Been wounded to reason of our transgressions bruised to reason of our iniquities; punishment for our peace is Been on him and for with his stripes we are healed. We had all gone astray as sheep each of us we followed the her own way; and the LORD HAS dropped on him the iniquity of us we all. "
3 Reading Isaiah 53].
As Isaiah assumes an place of so much importance in the Messianic prophecy this passage must be considered to part and more to background. Chapters 52: 13-53: 12 can be set to because "The gospel according to Isaiah." The Lord of announced nearly 700 years before Christ through the prophets That the "Hope of Israel" the awaited Messiah would have been inexplicably despised and rejected by his people. However this "gospel" also showed that not the Messiah to bear sorrows only by men but also under the hand of God that he will die sostitutivamente as for just the unjust for to save them from their sins.
The authenticity of Isaiah].
To be able to refer back to and trustworthiness authenticity of Isaiah you have to go back with the mind once again to what was said in the introduction about the translation of the Septuagint and the complete scroll of Isaiah to found Qumran. In fact Isaiah 53 is for content in whole both the works!
The different Jewish interpretation of Isaiah 53].
Today Has Judaism completely abandoned the Messianic interpretation of this passage of Isaiah. But as however shows the rabbinic literature for not a long time so it was. The most widespread opinion today argues That the "Servant of God" not is the Messiah but the people of Israel or her part. The people of Israel would have fallen pain described here. This interpretation of Isaiah 53 is however untenable for a variety of reasons content:
- When ever HAS suffered the people of Israel or her part for the sins of others? Not just men as Noah Daniel and Job could have done so as testifies Ezekiel 14: 12-20!
- It may perhaps be said of an any Jew to apart from the Messiah That "he had done no violence neither was any deceit in her mouth?" (Isaiah 53: 9)
- When will the people of Israel or a part of it is Been in tomb of an rich instead of in one place with the transgressors? (Isaiah 53: 9)
Messianic interpretations in rabbinic literature].
As already mentioned in the literature there is a whole series of messianic That walk link Isaiah 53 to the Messiah. These steps are for example in the Babylonian Talmud Sanhedrin 98b in the Treaty of Abkath Rokel book Paskita (700 AD) in an commentary to Genesis 1: 3 of Rabbi Moses Haddarschan (11th century ) and in a book Rabboth (300 AD) on Ruth 2:12. The rabbi Alschesch (16th century) says about Isaiah 53: "Our ancient rabbis thought on the basis of the tradition That here we are speaking of King Messiah. So we too following them we believe That That we think the subject of this prediction is David; he is the Messiah as is well clear. "28
In Midrasch Tanchuma (9th century?) Is to say the way of the words "Behold my servant shall prosper" (Isaiah 52:13): "This is the King Messiah That is high and exalted made excelled more of high Abraham Moses lifted up above and most of the angels That serve. "[29].
In Targum Jonathan Ben Uzziel [14] transpositions Aramaic of the prophets That hark back to a tradition rimontante to pre-Christian times the phrase "Behold my servant shall prosper" (Isaiah 52:13) is inserted even the title 'Messiah ".30 There are still many other interesting documents of kind; However now we want to take care of the way in which these prophecies written for a large part with the "prophetic perfect" (see Introduction) you are fulfilled in Jesus of the story.
Comments on the text of Isaiah 53].
Isaiah 52:13: "Behold the servant will prosper (or" act wisely " according to another version) will be high exalted made supremely exalted." Before That it is described the terrible Passion of the Messiah is represented his triumph. The Messiah must be removed from the tomb (the resurrection Acts 2:24); high in the sky (ascension Acts 1: 9); and exalted (on the throne at the right hand of God; Mark 16:19).
Isaiah 52:14: "How many people saw it they remained stunned (it was so undid his so as not countenance more than an opinion man and on his so as to not look more than an opinion son d 'man). "
Here we speak of Messiah mistreated by men: the back of the Lord Jesus was turned into a bloody mass and to her torn flesh when Pilate scourged (with straps of leather from the end of armed sharp pieces of metal stone or hooks John 19: 1). On his the head was placed a crown of thorns with spines 5-8 cm long so that the blood ran and abundant hair on the face (John 19: 2).
Isaiah 52:15: "So will many of the nations he will arouse the admiration: the kings shall shut their mouths before to him That they shall see that not they had never been told and learn what That not they had heard. "
The message of battered Messiah Jesus it was then announced in the whole world outside the borders of Israel where it picked up big impression (see Romans 15: 18-21). Even the king heard this news (Agrippa: Acts 26: 27-28 the Roman emperor: see Acts 25: 11-12 etc.).
Isaiah 53: 1: "Who Has to believe That what we have preached unto you? and to Who is Been revealed the arm of the LORD? "
Although the announcement of Messiah and of his suffering would spread throughout the world it met a great disbelief. Only a few Jews will believe (John 12: 37-38). But even among the not Jews pagans raised (and raises) an deep denial.
Isaiah 53: 2a: "He is came up to him as before an scion as a root out of dry ground."
This verse speaks of the growth of Messiah as a small child (the Hebrew word "Joneq" = "Scion" means simultaneously "Infant"). Of this growth however the Lord Jesus came 'to before he "that is in complete communion with his God (Luke 2: 40.41 to 52). He grew up in the middle of an people characterized by hardness of heart and unbelief religious life that is "to dry ground."
Isaiah 53: 2b + 3: "He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him nor appearance that we should desire. And despised rejected by men a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief equal to the one before which hide their faces he was despised and we not it made no estimate. "
Among the Jews expected as an Messiah fighter for the freedom That would have thrown off the yoke of the Romans. So you had for Jesus That as was of meek servant O Lord and only contempt shame. They were especially leaders of That the people rejected it (the Hebrew word "Ishim" means of men particularly high status). Only a few recognized the her glory "full of grace and of truth glory... as one of the only begotten of the Father" (John 1:14).
Isaiah 53: 4a: "And nevertheless That were our illnesses he carried and carried our sorrows of those which had been loaded."
Has the Lord Jesus deeply affected by the suffering of the many sufferers of Israel: and brought her throughout her life on this earth (Matthew 8: 16:17; see John 11: 33-36). (Note That in this verse speaks of 'disease' and 'pain' and not of 'misdeeds' or 'transgressions').
Isaiah 53: 4b-6: "And we did esteem him stricken smitten by God and afflicted But he is Been wounded to reason of our transgressions bruised to reason of our iniquities; punishment for our peace is Been on him and for with his stripes we are healed. We had all gone astray as sheep each of us we followed the her own way; and the LORD HAS laid on him the iniquity of us we all. "
That was obvious the Messiah Jesus suffered for and the wickedness of the Romans the Jews (though this fact alone not could forgive any sin) while in step prophetic states That in three hours of darkness God punished him to the cross as a substitute for the sins of all those who repenting they have confessed to the Creator (or that they will in below) and have confidence in of sacrifice of expiation Golgotha (or you believe in future) (1 John 1: 9; Romans 3: 23-26).
Isaiah 53: 7: "He was oppressed he humbled himself and not opened his mouth. as the lamb brought him to the slaughter as to the sheep dumb before who the shearer he not he opened his mouth. "
The Lord Jesus endured all the abuse without resistance. as it is exactly fulfilled: "like sheep... not he opened his mouth..." (see Matthew 26:62 27: 12-14 etc.).!
In the Old Testament were offered to God sacrifices of animals for the sins committed; is interesting to note that for eg from this passage of Isaiah can be recognized That already that time it was clear That these victims were only prototypes in view of the sacrifice of Messiah That really takes off sins!
Isaiah 53: 8: "By oppression and from judgment he was taken away (or ripped and hurry fury). and among those of the her generation who reflects that he had been ripped from the land of the living and to hit reason of the transgressions of my people? "
The condemnation of the Lord Jesus was only a false procedure corrupt That was reduced to a brief caricature of the process. Since "in processes issues of life and of death" of the Sanhedrin had usually cite as witnesses people That they could testify to favor of the accused. Where were the defenders instead of Jesus? in and hurry fury the proceedings took place. Who can describe the corruption of those people? They killed their Messiah! But at the same time that he died for all Israel (see Matthew 1:21 John 11: 5051)!
Isaiah 53: 9: "He was assigned a grave with the wicked but in her death he is Been with the rich not because he had done no violence neither was any deceit in her mouth."
The burial of the wicked would have been in the valley of Hinnom outside of the city of Jerusalem where they were burned municipal waste. But God will not allowed an further outrage. That so happened he was in place the tomb of rich of Joseph Arimathea (Matthew 27: 57-60). The her innocence is confirmed by a threefold apostolic witness:
- Not knew sin (2 Corinthians 5:21 Paul)
- Not no sin (1 Peter 2:22: Peter)
- Not was found in sin he (1 John 3: 5: John). Isaiah 53:10: "Yet it pleased the LORD of bruise with suffering. After giving her life in sacrifice for the sin he shall see seed prolong his days and the work of the LORD shall prosper in his hands. "
When the Lord Jesus was placed in cross load of the faults of others and HOLY God Just had to abandon it for three hours (Matthew 27: 4546) and hit at our place. But having led to completed the work of redemption "prolong his days" rising from the dead on the third day (Acts 1: 3 10: 4041; Romans 6: 9; Revelation 1:18 etc.).
Isaiah 53:11: "He shall see the fruit of of torment his soul and shall be satisfied; for to her knowledge my righteous servant will justify many and it will charge himself of their iniquities. "
The her redeeming work of entails the unthinkable consequences sinners can be freed from their sins and are "the fruit of of torment his soul." for through him all believers are to be justified before God (Romans 3:26).
Isaiah 53:12: "Therefore I will give her portion with the great and he shall divide the spoil with the powerful because it HAS gave himself to death and is Been numbered with the transgressors; Has bore the sin of many and HAS interceded for the transgressors. "
The Lord is sacrificed of her own volition (he gave himself in death; see John 10: 1718) and is Been numbered with the transgressors (Hebrew "Posch gim '= of inquenti Luke 23: 33) so God will give him as reward the future messianic kingdom (Revelation 20: 6) and even the faithful remnant of Israel will participate (= powerful). When he was in the cross the Lord Jesus HAS interceded for offenders (Luke 23:34). He bore the sins of many but not of all (see Hebrews 9:28 Mark 10:45)! Anyone not he confesses to God and his own guilt not thank you for having sacrificed his Messiah Jesus will fall under the eternal judgment of God (Matthew 25: 4146). But today is still the day of salvation; everyone who comes to the Lord Jesus will be welcomed (Matthew 11: 28-30)!
4 The Resurrection].
Even the resurrection of Messiah was foretold in the Old Testament! in Psalm 16: 8-10 speaks the Messiah himself: "I HAS set the LORD always before me; because he is at my right hand I will not I will point moved. Therefore my heart is glad and my soul is celebrating; my flesh also shall dwell safely; because thou not leave my soul in you can of the death (Hebrew: Sheol) That neither wilt your SANTO One to see corruption. "(King James Version or" decomposition " according to Webster of the SBG 1982). This step is not absolutely can relate to David the composer of this Psalm since he died in 1000 before That and lived the Messiah 'saw' consequently 'corruption' 'decomposition'. On his grave could be visited to even in Jerusalem 32 AD (see Acts 2:29)! But of Lord Jesus comes with certificate clarity That sum he is resurrected three days after his death and That he "saw no corruption" the "decomposition" (see Matthew 28 Mark 16 Luke 24; John 20 and 21).
Josephus confirms the resurrection].
The resurrection of Jesus Christ not there is only confirmed by historical sources the Bible. The historian Josephus published in the year 93 the her and operates in 20 volumes "Antiquitates judaicae" That he wrote for the Romans so that they were better informed on the Jews and on their religion. in it he briefly to pronounce judgment and on the resurrection of Lord Jesus: "In that time (ie one of Pilate 26-36 AD) Jesus appeared to him an wise man That miracle worker performed many miraculous works and was a teacher for the men That gladly accepted the truth. Gained to her because many Jews and also many Greeks. This man was the Messiah. and after That Pilate had condemned to the death at the instigation of our own leaders those That not loved him left him. For he appeared to them of new living after three days... ". Already treating 31 The authenticity of the quote of Flavio (p. 35) That intimated this step was put in questioned by various critics. We therefore revise the arguments to before favor of The authenticity of this quote of Josephus.
Of more than 500 eyewitnesses].
In all there were more of 500 eyewitnesses of the resurrection (see 1 Corinthians 15: 3-9). not is impostors can declare all these men since the insincerity is in the fundamental contradiction with the insegnament or of [the New Testament] to where they were sticking with the utmost firmness and also because some of their not they were afraid of having to suffer martyrdom reason of their faith!
Without the resurrection not there is Christianity].
It should be noted carefully the following fact: around the year AD 57 the apostle Paul wrote in a letter to the Corinthians That the certainty of the Christian faith is based on the reality of the resurrection that is if the resurrection of the Lord not it was an historical fact not the faith of Christians would make no sense. In fact 1 Corinthians 15: 16-19 reads verbatim: "For if the dead are not rise then Christ is resuscitated; and if not Christ is risen is vain your faith; ye are yet in your sins. That even those they sleep in Christ have perished. If we have hope in Christ for this life only we are the most miserable of all men. "
If the eye-witnesses of the resurrection were deceiving as they would then have to depend on all their preaching from a lie? So the resurrection must have been an unwavering certainty. Paul writes then the very next verse (1 Corinthians 15:20): "But now is Christ risen from the dead the firstfruits of those That sleep."
The importance of the resurrection].
The resurrection of Christ from the dead is so important because in raising the his the Messiah from the dead God wanted to give all the evidence That he accepted fully his substitutionary sacrifice and is pront [New Testament] or to forgive anyone who uses and makes her personally in faith this atoning work confessing her without hesitation personal guilt.

He was in fact the son of Jacob; and of Heli father of Mary was only the son.

And behold I are with you always until the end of TIME. "
** Acts 2: 23-36: This man when you were given in hands for by the determinate counsel and to the foreknowledge of God you for of hand unequal crucified and slain; but God raised him. This... Jesus God Has resuscitated; of what we are all witnesses. Being therefore exalted by the right hand of God and having received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit Has That hath shed forth this and now you see hear.
For David is not is in rose sky; yet he himself says: "The Lord Has said to my Lord:" Sit at my right hand until I make thine enemies for your footstool. '"Therefore know with certainty all the house of Israel That God Has made him both Lord and Christ this Jesus That you crucified. "
*** Acts 13: 33-37: God has fulfilled this for us we their children by raising Jesus as also is written in the second psalm 'You are my Son this day have I begotten thee. "Since the HAS raised from the dead in That way not to have more go to decomposition Has God said so: "I will give you the holy and faithful promises made to David." In fact he says elsewhere: "You not That wilt your Holy One see decay." Now David having done the will of God in her generation he is asleep and is Been combined with his fathers and on his body is decomposed; but the one That God Has raised not HAS suffered decomposition.
*** 1 Cor. 15: 4-8: that he was buried; That is Been rose again the third day according to the scriptures; That appeared to Peter then to the twelve. Then he appeared to more of five hundred brethren at once of whom the greater part remain unto life and some are dead. Then he appeared to James then to all the apostles; and last of all he appeared also to me as abortion. (Taken from the Jewish New Testament of David Stem)
"Cardinal Pietro Parente Mons. Antonio Pioli Mons. Salvatore Garofalo: Selected entries from the Dictionary of Dogmatic Theology." DEITY (Jesus Christ) is fundamental dogma of Christianity.
In the A. T. divinity of Christ is overshadowed:
a) Messianic Texts (Gen 3 14 ss.; ibid. 1-3 and 12 4914; Num. 24 17; Psalms 2 44 71 88 109; Prophecies: Is. 7 and 14 9 6 Micah 5 2 Ger. 23 6 Dan. 7 13; Malach. 3 1). These texts have all their strength if we consider in the light of NT; m not taken themselves are all dogmatic but suggest at least a vague transcendence of the future Messiah. Has particular value the text of Is. 9 where 6 is the Messiah as prophesied (* = strong God) the title given elsewhere to Yahweh. not is not valid the prophecy of Mal. 3 1 which predicts the forerunner and the Messiah. That enter into as the temple Dominator (Heb. = name of Yahweh).
b) Texts sapienzali That present the divine wisdom in almost personified so to suggest a distinction of terms or subjects of the breast the Divinity
(Prov. 8 12 ss.; Eccli. 24 5 ff.; Sap. 7 21 ff. And 18 14).
In N. T. divinity of Christ is evident:
c) is the prophesied Messiah Christ (the gospel in all);
1) in the Synoptic Gospels Christ is the Son of God only (* = favorite = only): Matt 3 and 17 17 5; Mc. 1 and 11 9 7; is confessed that St. Peter (Matt 16 16 ff.) and Jesus approves and praises. Furthermore Jesus distinguishes the Father with the possessive 'my' and 'your' and never associated with the men saying "our". before the Sanhedrin states Son of God and is condemned for this. Proclaims itself superior to Solomon (Matthew 12 41) completes the divine law (Mt. 5: 21) forgives sins to Mary Magdalene to the paralytic promises eternal life to those who love Him above all things and follows him rose from death to life and rising to the sky.
2) Gospel of S. John: Christ is the eternal Word truly God; is the only begotten from the Father That first of there Abraham That is and one with the Father send the Holy Spirit.
3) St. Paul strongly affirms the divinity of Christ especially Rom. 9 5; Col. 1 and 15 2 9; Filipp. 2 6 ss.; Heb. 1 11; Tit. 2 13

Messianic EXPECTED EXTRA BIBLICAL. Zarathustra is Spitama Been an prophet and mystic Iranian founder of Zoroastrianism. Zarathustra has therefore for the tradition mazdeista an central role in the salvation of the humanity is Been to him say for the first hymn of the Ahuna Vairya (Yatha vairyo ahu) That had to flee the demons from the land where once roamed freely.
Regarding other prophecies and messianic expectations we find something of very interesting also to of outside of the Hebrew Scriptures in such ares shows the prophecies of the Hebrew prophets. Again other peoples of the earth is an expected Messiah as in fact is demonstrated by the Magi.
Who were and what was their religious system? E 'should be asking this question it is for to see if it was just the messianic expectation of the Israelites and because the facts relating to the Magi is shown directly from the Gospel.
In the "Life of Jesus Christ" of Giuseppe Ricciotti (Mondadori) p. 272 we find this remark interesting:
The theological system of the Magi is based on the dualism and on the eternal struggle between good and evil and on the expectation of saushyant (rescuer). This role is assigned to three characters That future would arise after Zarathustra and whose activity is framed in different times; the last of these helpers is ascribed the most important because it will ensure the triumph of good over evil and lead humanity to happiness.
Some Persian texts having appointed two rescuers descendants of Zarathustra present the third and final RESCUER as given birth to a girl "That no no man comes close."
With this helper according to those Persian texts will be the resurrection of the dead the judgment of the general and humanity the establishment of an kingdom of justice.
Historically is likely That towards the beginning of the Christian era was widespread in the caste of the Magi (re astronomers priests) knowledge of the Jewish expectation of an the Messiah-King That this expectation was identified foreign with the expectation of Persian an and rescuer that certain magi took any interest of the appearance of this character expected. [The Gospel of the Magi confirms this hypothesis.]
Another case of revelation of the outside of the circle are described in the Hebrew Bible as well That for the wise men even in the case of prophet Balaam belonging to the Canaanite people who was invited by his people to to curse Israel but God inspired him to a long blessing That included the famous phrase "a star shall rise out of Jacob" just in reference to the coming of an Salvatore.

Let us read now with focus on the text of Matthew].
Matthew 2.1 Jesus was born to Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod. Some Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asking 2 "Where is the king of the Jews That is born? For we have seen her the star and we have come for worship him." 3. heard this King Herod was troubled and with him all Jerusalem. 4 and assembling all the chief priests and the scribes of the people he inquired of them the place where the Messiah was to be born. 5 They answered him "In Bethlehem of Judea for thus is written for means of prophet and 6 you Bethlehem land of Judah not you are really the least among the clans of Judah: from you will come an head That to shepherd my people Israel. "7 Then Herod summoned the wise men came with say ascertained from them the time when the star had appeared and 8 he sent them to Bethlehem exhorting them: "Go and inquire carefully of child and when you have found him bring me word that I too may go and worship him. "9 When they had heard of the king they departed. And lo the star That they had seen his East went before them till it came and he stopped over the place where the child was. 10 When they saw the star they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. 11 On entering the house they saw the child with Mary her mother and they bowed down and worshiped him.
WHAT COULD BE THE COMET an HEAVENLY BODY LUINOSO VERY NIGHT THE BEAM of LIGHT FILTER WAS AMONG THE CLOUDS?
How could reasonably be a conjunction of planets or a comet or a star That any traveling to millions of miles away from the earth stopping just at the place where the Child was found pointing to the Magi the exact location without the possibility of confusion? That maybe this celestial body is both an point closer to the terrestrial sphere so as to stay a few feet off the ground? But if we think we need to take better That also present an celestial body is of enormous size and even if we admit an closer to the ground and on his stopping in an given point we should take into account That not indicate only a house but an entire region. as then it could be so easy to identify the place of the birth of the long-awaited Savior?
The logical conclusion is That not it is not only of an not only astronomical event astrological.
That the luminous body is called a star with in all probability is as already noted to reason St. Basil That That was pointed out the "star" in not himself was neither an planet or a comet or else it was something of extraordinary for example in his movement different from that of the stars known and not could not be identified with a star from which to draw an horoscope. It was according to St. Basil an or an angel a direct sign of sky.
It is of a very agreeable and opinion unlikely. Only an intelligent being could guide the Magi in so finding the poor dwelling of the Holy Family in clearly without getting lost in an impossible quest.
That one however we are more interested is That also of outside of the Jews there were prophecies inspired by the prophets of their peoples That identified with some elements precisely connotations That would have allowed them of recognize the Awaited One of the people.
THIS list of biblical references WHOSE overall picture gives us MATHEMATICAL CERTAINTY That in of Jesus Nazareth you are having fulfilled all of the Messianic prophecies and That then is He is the Christ the true Messiah Awaited by people not only from the Jews but also from other peoples and religions That considered the same foreigners were expecting the coming of the Magi in their religion.
====================
W. Devivier SJ of Jesus Nazareth is the promised Messiah. The fulfillment of the prophecies That concerning the Person and the mission of Jesus Christ.
Enumeration of Some Prophecies:
Beginning with the fall of the first man not God ceased to send later a multitude of prophets for and announce paint with more and more certain circumstances That the Messiah the Mosaic religion was to replace a religion more perfect destined for and all the peoples for all the times. These are sent of God with secure increasing precision in time when the Messiah will appear on the earth which belong to the family the city which will see the light: many centuries before the damage of surrounding more precise the her birth of her the life of the her preaching de 'his miracles his sufferings of her the death of his triumph over death and on the world. We remember especially the famous prophecy of Jacob of Daniel of Haggai and of Malachi That one after the other always better to determine the time which was to be the Messiah. At the same time these particular points will see the importance of to the prophecies prove the divine mission of Salvatore.
1 Coming and quality of the Messiah].
"Son of Abraham" (Genesis 12) a descendant of the tribe of Judah (Gen... 49) David (Psalm. 88 II Isaiah Jeremiah. Etc. 23.) The Messiah awaited by all nations (January 49 Haggai. 52) born of the Virgin (Isaiah. 7 Jeremiah. to Ezek. 44) in the town of Bethlehem (Micah 5) the first of the slavery of the nation (Gen. 49) the seventieth week of years after the edict for the reconstruction of temple of Jerusalem (Daniel 9) and first of destruction of for this second temple the work of a foreign nation (Haggai. 2 Malachi 3). The her coming will be preceded by a universal peace (Psalm. 71 Isaiah 2 Daniel 2 Zechariah. 3) and will be announced and prepared by a special envoy (Malachi. 3) whose voice will resonate in desert (Isaiah. 40). The Messiah of as the name of in fact Jesus will say Salvatore (habac. 3 Isaiah 5i etc..) Emmanuel or God with us we (Isaiah. 7) ie the Anointed for Christ excellence (Psalm. 2 44 61 Isaiah Lamentations 4 the Son of God (Psalm. 2 Hosea. 11) God (Isaiah. 9 25 35 40 Ps. 44 109 Bar. 3 Malachi. 3) and hidden God (Isaiah. 45) according to the order of the pope Melchizedek (Psalm. 109) the right for excellence (Jeremiah. 23 Wisdom. 2 Isaiah 45 62 etc.). the Holy and the Holy of Holies (Psalm. 4 15 Isaiah 12 Daniel 9) the admirable the counselor the mighty God the father of future century the Prince of the peace (Isaiah. 9 ).
2. her and birth the her youth].
Will be adored by the kings of the East That will offer gold and incense (Psalm. 71 Isaiah 60); the Savior sojourn in Egypt (Hosea. II) and to in Nazareth Galilee (according to the text jew Isaiah 3) converse with the inhabitants of Zion (Isaiah. 12 etc..) and glue her presence will honor the second temple (Haggai. 2 Malachi. 3). It will be poor and from her youth work be done (Psalm. 87) and however and will be king possessor of eternal an That kingdom will extend to the ends of the earth (Psalm. 2). It will be obedient (Psalm. 39) and sweet and peaceful (Psalm. 119).
3. her apostolic career].
He not crush with the feet and the broken reed not turn off the wick That still smokes (Isaiah. 42); to go look for the lost sheep raise those That macaws falls bind up the wounds of those That macaws wounds will strengthen the weak and confirm the faithful in the lead ways of Justice (Ezek. 34) ; comforted the afflicted (Isaiah. 61) and to work miracles for the blind the deaf the dumb and so on. (Isaiah. 35 42). However in spite of the intrinsic efficacy of the her the divine word (Isaiah. 1149) despite the splendor of this divine light (Isaiah. 9 43 6o) the Messiah will be a stone of scandal and an occasion of ruin for an large number of Jews (Isaiah. 1 6 8 42).
4. her passion and the her death].
Isaiah Zechariah and the Psalms are as a sort of prophetic gospel. It is judged by the following: "I weighed out for reward my 30 silver coins. And the Lord said to me: Throw to this beautiful statuary that sum to which I have estimated (Zechariah. 21). Truly leaned against our griefs took upon our sorrows. it seemed like an leper smitten of God and afflicted. for our iniquity is Been covered of wounds was smashed for our of ict. Out of he is fallen That the punishment we must bring peace and with his stripes we were healed. we were lost in false ways and God compounded of all our iniquities hit him for the of conflicts of his people. not there's more he neither beauty nor glory. We saw more not was recognizable it was an object of contempt the last of the men an of man and pains all disfigured as sheep will be led to be killed and as an lamb is dumb before to That he his shearer so he not opens her mouth (Isaiah. 53); more resembling an worm That to an man the reproach of men and the refusal of the plebs (Salt 21). That wounds are in these the midst of your hands? are made to me by those wounds That my friends were saying (Zechariah. 13). And pierced my hands my feet they counted all my bones. I considered it and I examined; divided my clothes and they cast lots for to have my garments (Psalm 21). How many saw me mocked of me and her lips moved shook their heads. He confided in you Lord they say; the free save it if you is is it That she loves him (Psalm. 21 Wisdom. 2). as bulls surrounded me roared as lions; as a pack of dogs attacked me with Wrath (Psalm. 21). for food they gave me gall and for calm my thirst they offered me vinegar (Psalm 68). All day I was the object of for derision all my people (Jeremiah. 3).
5 Establishment of the her the Church].
The most part of the prophecies announce it: "On the inhabitants of Jerusalem God will spend his spirit give them a new spirit and an new heart (Isaiah. 46 Ezek. 37 Jol. 2). Preached first in Zion (Isaiah. 2 Micah 11) The word of God will be carried by faithful witnesses (Isaiah. 43 44) in Africa in Lydia in Italy in Greece the isles afar off to the people immersed in the shadows of the death That they will conquer the Lord (Isaiah. 60 52). them will go in and the fire will try them as gold is tried (Zechariah. 13). A new alliance will bring together all peoples (Isaiah. 49 Jeremiah. 31st Hosea. 2 etc..): wolves and lambs and lions sheep and docile peaceful live together (Isaiah. 11 Sof. 3 Jeremiah. 32) ".
6 The sacrifice of the new law].
To cap off the wonderful set of the revelations about the Messiah Malachi That ends the series of prophets proclaim That the sacrifices of the old law which had been offered in only temple of Jerusalem will be subrogated by a 'oblation all pure That will be done in every place and at all ì nations (Malachi. 1 10 il). Isaiah and David adds That this sacrifice of the new covenant will be offered by priests removed from all nations (Isaiah. 66) under the supreme pontiff according to the order of Melchizedek (Psalm 109).
Figure 7 prophetic of Messiah].
That God wanted the spirit of his people were constantly busy of future Redeemer and everything would evoke him to her imagination. So not he was glad of preach through the ministry of the prophets. Conforming to the genius of the Jewish people and in general of all the peoples of the East of procured appear with the Messiah types and live with symbolic phenomena. Among the first mention Isaac Joseph Moses David Jonah; among the latter the paschal lamb the manna the serpent of bronze. In fact you can dine That and all worship institutions of the people of Israel had an typical character. "The whole of government the people says St. Augustine not That was a continual prophecy of King That waiting." not is to neglect this kind of prophecy which although not of servant according to the test That in this moment we expose it can nevertheless accomplish and confirm the arguments.
8 Between the end of the Messianic prophecies and the principle of their fulfillment spent five hundred years].
On the other hand we know That for making impossible any doubt as to this prior art of the prophecies Providence ordered That was translated into greek the Old Testament of nearly 300 years before Jesus Christ and That the translation called the Septuagint was widespread in the whole world long before of the coming of promised Messiah. But these prophecies That succeeded so numerous in an of course 4000 years and That they found themselves in agreement in announcing the same event extraordinary prodigious to impossible to predict you are then really accomplish? That is the question especially important to examine.
The fulfillment of the prophecies].
To fully convinced of perfect fulfillment of all these prophecies Jesus Christ and only in Jesus Christ just read the Gospels. The agreement of the Old with the New Testament is so wonderful That if with most certainly not That we knew the prophetic books existed many centuries before of Jesus Christ we are tempted to believe That than so many and the precise circumstances were written after the events by historians and not by the prophets. are known efforts tempted by modern critics especially from Renan Wellhousen etc. Darmstetter. for take away the supernatural character of the prophetic mission and for the prophets assign a historic part different from that That their attributes the tradition. not hath kind of That flaw not it is made to undergo the texts no fantastic interpretation which not use has been made for lower the prophets in the same way of simple fortune-tellers or for represent their predictions as written after the fact. However if the naturalistic theory is untenable in That it concerns the history and the religion of Israel why not correspond to the facts it is even less sustainable as we will see in That it concerns the 'proclamation of the Messiah.
1 The age and THE PLACE of the coming of Messiah had been well determined].
Vintage and THE PLACE of the coming of Messiah had been well determined and for widespread all the earth That at the time of the proclamation of the Roman Empire under Augustus not only the Jews but all the people were waiting for the great event. This same expectation That had been foretold by the prophets is attested by all contemporary historians. "On the faith of ancient prophecies says Tacitus was the general persuasion That the East would prevail and That from Judea would come out of the masters world." At to just speak with the same terms and Suetonius Joseph jew. The expectation of promised deliverer was so general and so alive at the Jews That many of them blindly followed some factions which are spacciarono for precursors of or for the Messiah the Messiah himself. Hence the numerous rebellions That preceded the destruction of Jerusalem. It is remarkable! while Europe was waiting for an Salvatore from the East and the Indians the Chinese were waiting by the West. Codest is stated by Voltaire his additions to the overall story. From one and the other side looks focused on an small spot of globe That Boulanger an another unbelieving quite rightly calls "the center of the hope of all nations."
The other prophecies are of equal true. That we may say the picture of the prophecies of the Old Testament is the picture of the life and of the death of Jesus Christ the history of abridged his works and of wonderful establishment of to her the Church. The comparison is clear and the application not only is easy but you do by herself. The prophets are witnesses That only to lay favor of Jesus: "Huic omnes Prophetae testimonium perhibent" said St. Peter to the Jews (Acts 10 43). All of them their predictions all kinds prophetic figurative of all the institutions the ancient law refer to Jesus of and Nazareth prove That he is the true Messiah appointed by divine inspiration the Savior of gender human.
2 We must therefore be surprised seeing the apostles constantly invoke the testimony of the prophets for convince the Jews of the divine mission of Jesus Christ?
For other listeners presented arguments of another kind; but for their compatriots nothing could match the strength of this. Therefore s. Peter made it the basis of his exhortations That converted thousands of people. After pleading in as a witness of the heavenly voice heard on Tabor appeals to the prophecies as to a test even more irrefrangibile: "Habemus firmiorem propheticus sermonem" (II. Ep. 1 19).
St. Paul by her consecrated to whole days let them see Jesus in the law of Moses and in the prophets: Suadebat eis de Jesu ex lege et Moysi Prophetis to mane usque ad vesperam (Acts viii 23).
3 The same Jesus got up the courage of his disciples showing them That all that troubled them not That was the fulfillment of the prophecies]:
Interpretabatur in illis Scripturis omnibus quae de ipso erant (s. Luca 2421. That we had hoped it was to him Israel free with all this is now the third day since these things are happened. 22 But some women of our we were astounded they went to the tomb 23 in the morning and not having found his body they came to tell us of they had seen a vision of angels who said That he is alive. 24. Some of our altars and went to the tomb they found as the women had said but he did not have seen it. "25 and he said to them" O foolish men and of late heart in believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26. not That was necessary for the Christ to suffer these things get into her glory?. "27 and beginning from Moses and from all the prophets he expounded unto them in all the Scriptures that what he was referring to him. 28 When they approached the village where they were going Jesus acted as if he were going farther. 29 But they urged him strongly "Stay with us we it is nearly evening and the day is now almost over. "). and therefore he had said to the Jews: Study the scriptures which you believe That contain the words of life they testify to my favor (S. John. 5 39).
Conclusion.
From the fulfillment of the many prophecies made many centuries before That about events it was impossible to conjecture it is with the greatest evidence That Jesus Christ is truly the Messiah the one sent by God announced and expected to be several thousand years and That for consequently the religion he founded and by so long predicted is truly divine. In fact only the One to whom all the centuries are present and That alone can prepare and directing the events of her glue wisdom and omnipotence he could make similar revelations. "The fulfillment of all the prophecies he said with Pascal right is an perpetual miracle and not no need of for other evidence recognize the divinity of the Christian religion."
We can not refrain from quoting here a magnificent pages of Lacordaire. After mentioning the major Messianic prophecies as he exclaimed:
"Here gentlemen two facts parallel and correlative and all two certain and all two of a gigantic proportion That one lasted two thousand years of Jesus Christ the other That hard by one thousand eight hundred after Christ Jesus: That one announces a major revolution and impossible to predict That the other it is the fulfillment and all having two Jesus Christ for principle for end for conjunction. I ask you again: that do you think? Would you take possibly the party of the denial? But That what neghereste?
Perhaps the existence of the Messianic idea? But this is in the Jewish people That is living in the whole series of the monuments of the her history in universal traditions of mankind in more open denominations of the most profound disbelief.
Perhaps the anteriority of the circumstances prophetic? But the Jewish people That Has Jesus Christ crucified and That Has an and the national interest to secular rob him of the evidence the her divinity That there asserts its scriptures were an That this time are nowadays; and to greater security two hundred and fifty days before Jesus Christ (250 °.AC) under the king of Egypt Ptolemy Philadelphus and upon his orders throughout the Old Testament translated greek became the property of the Roman world of the whole civilized world.
You'll turn to the other pole of the question and deny the fulfillment of the messianic idea? But the Catholic Church daughter of this idea is before your eyes there HAS baptized.
Maybe you will try your foothold in the encounter of these two formidable events?
That you deny Jesus Christ has in her person verified the Messianic idea That he is a Jew of the tribe of Judah of the house of David That he founded the Catholic Church on the double ruin of the Synagogue and of idolatry?
