The Case for The Messiah

Did you know that Jesus fulfilled 27 Messianic Prophecies in one day? And these are some of the 300+ Messianic prophecies that He has fulfilled through His birth, life, and resurrection.

Mathematically speaking, the odds of one person fulfilling only 8 of these prophecies is 1 in 100,000,000,000,000,000. One person fulfilling 48 prophecies has 1 chance in 10 to the 157th power. And one person fulfilling 300+ prophecies: Only Jesus!

I’m a Jewish believer who came to believe in Yeshua (Jesus) as the Messiah and my Lord and Savior 22 years ago. I have to confess that like many, I was also skeptical, and I spent seven years studying The Holy Scriptures. I studied Theology for five years and not completely satisfied with what I learned, I moved to Israel to pursue a double major in Biblical and Jewish Studies. Also, I  spent two years studying Hebrew at the Hebrew University.

More than just knowledge, I have a deep personal conviction to believe that Jesus is the Messiah. After seven years of studies, I could not find any contradictions between the Hebrew Bible (Tanach) and the New Testament (Brit Hadasha) to bring me any doubts. The more I studied, the more my eyes were opened to the truth.

“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:32

Although I feel very tempted to explain to you each one of these prophecies, which I taught about for 12 years, I will let Scriptures speak for itself because I believe God does not need my help. As you read these prophecies and their fulfillment, the Holy Spirit (Ruach Hakodesh) will speak straight into your heart.

I want you to know that like me, thousands and thousands of Jews continue to FIND MESSIAH every day.

If you watched the video, he mentions how when he read Isaiah 53 he had no doubts that it was talking about Jesus. And before I share any of the 27 Messianic prophecies with you, I want to invite you to read this passage.

Isaiah 53

Who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant,
And as a root out of dry ground.
He has no form or comeliness;
And when we see Him,
There is no beauty that we should desire Him.
He is despised and rejected by men,
A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.
And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him;
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.

Surely He has borne our griefs
And carried our sorrows;
Yet we esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten by God, and afflicted.
But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes, we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He opened not His mouth;
He was led as a lamb to the slaughter,
And as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
So He opened not His mouth.
He was taken from prison and from judgment,
And who will declare His generation?
For He was cut off from the land of the living;
For the transgressions of My people, He was stricken.
And they made His grave with the wicked—
But with the rich at His death,
Because He had done no violence,
Nor was any deceit in His mouth.

10 Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him;
He has put Him to grief.
When You make His soul an offering for sin,
He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days,
And the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand.
11 He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied.
By His knowledge, My righteous Servant shall justify many,
For He shall bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great,
And He shall divide the spoil with the strong,
Because He poured out His soul unto death,
And He was numbered with the transgressors,
And He bore the sin of many,
And made intercession for the transgressors.

How can we not believe if God’s Holy Scriptures describe The Messiah so clearly?

To my Christian friends, these very Messianic prophecies are reasons for you to never doubt that Jesus (Yeshua) is the King of Israel and the Savior of the World. Use these Scriptures to grow in your own faith in Messiah and to teach your children diligently in God’s ways.

27 Messianic Prophecies Fulfilled by The Messiah in One Day

1 – The betrayal of the Messiah by His own friend

Ps 41:9  Even my own familiar friend in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, has lifted up his heel against me.

Mar 14:10 Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Him to them. (Also read verse 11)

2 – The Messiah forsook by His disciples

Zac 13:7 “Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd,
Against the Man who is My Companion,”
Says the Lord of hosts.
“Strike the Shepherd,
And the sheep will be scattered;
Then I will turn My hand against the little ones.

Mar 14:50 Then they all forsook Him and fled. (Read from verse 42)

3 – The price paid for the betrayal

Zac 11:12 Then I said to them, “If it is agreeable to you, give me my wages; and if not, refrain.” So they weighed out for my wages thirty pieces of silver.

Mat 26:14-15 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, and said, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him? And they him thirty pieces of silver.

4 – How the money of the betrayal would be used

Zac 11:13 And the Lord said to me, “Throw it to the potter”—that princely price they set on me. So I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them into the house of the Lord for the potter.

Mat 27:3-10 Then Judas, His betrayer, seeing that He had been condemned, was remorseful and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.”

And they said, “What is that to us? You see to it!

Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple and departed, and went and hanged himself.

But the chief priests took the silver pieces and said, “It is not lawful to put them into the treasury because they are the price of blood.”  And they consulted together and bought with them the potter’s field, to bury strangers in. Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day.

Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the value of Him who was priced, whom they of the children of Israel priced,  and gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord directed me.”

5 – The Torture of the Messiah

Isa 50:6  I gave My back to those who struck Me,
And My cheeks to those who plucked out the beard;
I did not hide My face from shame and spitting.

Mat 27:26, 30 Then he released Barabbas to them; and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified… Then they spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head.

6 – Shame, prosecution, and dishonor

Ps 69:19  You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor;
My adversaries are all before You. (Read to verse 21)

Mat 27:28 And they stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him.

7 – The smitten shepherd

Zac 13:7 “smite the shepherd, and will spread the sheep.”

Mat 26:31 Then Jesus said to them, “All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night, for it is written:

‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’


8 – The division of His garments

Ps 22:18 They divide My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.

John 19:24 They said therefore among themselves, “Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be,” that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says:

“They divided My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.” Therefore the soldiers did these things.

9 – The Messiah would not open His mouth at His trial

Isa 53:7  He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He opened not His mouth;
He was led as a lamb to the slaughter,
And as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
So He opened not His mouth.

Mat 27:13-14 Then Pilate said to Him, “Do You not hear how many things they testify against You?” But He answered him not one word so that the governor marveled greatly.

10 – The Messiah’s crucifixion

Isa 53:5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes, we are healed.

John 19:16 Then he delivered Him to them to be crucified. So they took Jesus and led Him away.

11 – Messiah thirsts

Ps 69:3 I am weary with my crying;
My throat is dry;
My eyes fail while I wait for my God.

John 19:28 After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, “I thirst!”

12 – The bitter drink

Ps 69:21  They also gave me gall for my food, and for my thirst, they gave me vinegar to drink.

John 19:29 Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth.

13 – People staring at Messiah on the cross

Ps 22:17 I can count all My bones. They look and stare at Me.

Mat 27:36 Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there.

14 – Messiah’s hands and feet pierced

Ps 22:16  For dogs have surrounded Me;
The congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me.
They pierced My hands and My feet;

Mat 27:35 Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments, casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet:

“They divided My garments among them, and for My clothing they cast lots.”


15 – His side was pierced

Zac 12:10 “And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn.

John 19:34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.

16 – Messiah’s broken heart

Ps 22:14 I am poured out like water,
And all My bones are out of joint;
My heart is like wax;
It has melted within Me.

John 19:34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
(Blood and water here represent a “broken heart”)

17 – The scorning and hatred of the crowd

Ps 22:7-8 All those who see Me ridicule Me;
They shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
“He trusted in the Lord, let Him rescue Him;
Let Him deliver Him since He delights in Him!”

Mat 27:41-43 Likewise the chief priests also, mocking with the scribes and elders, said, “He saved others; Himself He cannot save. If He is the King of Israel, let Him now come down from the cross, and we will believe Him. He trusted in God; let Him deliver Him now if He will have Him; for He said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”

18 – The Lamb of God

Isa 53:7 He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He opened not His mouth;
He was led as a lamb to the slaughter,
And as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
So He opened not His mouth.

John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

19 – The Messiah as the intercessor of sinners

Isa 53:12  Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great,
And He shall divide the spoil with the strong,
Because He poured out His soul unto death,
And He was numbered with the transgressors,
And He bore the sin of many,
And made intercession for the transgressors.

Luke 23:34 Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” And they divided His garments and cast lots.

20 – The lonely cry of the Messiah and intense time of His suffering

Ps 22:1 My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?
Why are You so far from helping Me,
And from the words of My groaning?

Mat 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”

21 – The disfigurement caused by the brutality of the soldiers

Isa 52:14 Just as many were astonished at you,
So His visage was marred more than any man,
And His form more than the sons of men;

John 19:5 Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them, “Behold the Man!”

John 19:14 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, and about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, “Behold your King!”


22 – The Cry of Triumph and victory of the Messiah

Ps 22:31  They will come and declare His righteousness to a people who will be born,
That He has done this.

John 19:30 So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!”And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.

23 – The Passover Lamb without any broken bones

Exodus 12:46 In one house it shall be eaten; you shall not carry any of the flesh outside the house, nor shall you break one of its bones.

Ps 22:17 I can count all My bones. They look and stare at Me.

John 19:33, 36 But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs… For these things were done that the Scripture should be fulfilled, “Not one of His bones shall be broken.”

24 – Messiah placed with the transgressors like a sinner, even though he never sinned

Isa 53:9 And they made His grave with the wicked—
But with the rich at His death,
Because He had done no violence,
Nor was any deceit in His mouth.

Isa 53:12 Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great,
And He shall divide the spoil with the strong,
Because He poured out His soul unto death,
And He was numbered with the transgressors,
And He bore the sin of many,
And made intercession for the transgressors.

25 – The Messiah would be cut off (killed) but not by his own fault

Dan 9:26 “And after the sixty-two weeks
Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself;
And the people of the prince who is to come
Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.

Isa 53:5-6  But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes, we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray;
We have turned, every one, to his own way;
And the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

John 11:49-52 And one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all, nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish.” Now, this he did not say on his own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation, and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

26 – The fight against Satan and the triumph of the Messiah (The oldest prophecy about the Messiah in the Torah)

Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between your seed and her Seed;
He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”

John 12:30-33 Jesus answered and said, “This voice did not come because of Me, but for your sake. Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out. And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself.” This He said, signifying by what death He would die.

27 The Messiah would be buried in a tomb of a rich man

Isa 53:9  And they made His grave with the wicked—
But with the rich at His death,
Because He had done no violence,
Nor was any deceit in His mouth.

Mat 27:57-60  Now when evening had come, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who himself had also become a disciple of Jesus. This man went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given to him. When Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb, and departed.

These Scriptures Were Written That You May Believe That Jesus (Yeshua) is The Messiah…

“And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.” John 20:30-31
