Old Testament Prophecies Fulfilled by Jesus

34 Prophecies in the Old Testament that Jesus Fulfilled Hundreds of Years Later

We are all amazed when we hear a prediction come true. Even one instance will make believers out of us which is why some of us are hooked in horoscopes and Nostradamus. But what if there is one person who fulfilled more than one prophecy that were made hundreds of years before He was born? What if He fulfilled prophecies made not just by one prophet but several in different times? And unlike the general predictions in horoscopes, Nostradamus, et al that can be applied to anybody, the prophecies about this Person were very specific and no one else in history can have a claim to them? Wouldn’t that be more amazing? And that what makes Jesus the Messiah amazing---and true. Below are some of the prophecies He fulfilled.
