408 Words2 Pages

Hello. When I read the Bible and expecial prophecies, I can recall to mind many of the prophecies that were fulfilled. The Bible is filled with predictions, or prophecies. Our textbook mentions that the book of Isaiah is a prophetic complex that tells about Israel past. present and future(Tullock & McEntire,pg.213,2012)”. Therefore in my opinion the word prophetic is described as what will happen in the future. As a colucision Isaiah prophecies recorded in the Bible about history is clear and they did happen. In my opinion Bible prophecy is always right. What I found to be mind blowing is that they usually involves matters of great importance and predict the opposite of what those living at the time of the writing might have been expecting.

In my opinion I find it awesome to contemplate and observe the magnitude of Isaiah’s prophecy expecial the one found at Isa. 7:14. Because it is a prophecy from Isaiah about Jesus being the Messiah. Therefore Isaiah 7:14 is a prophecies that Jesus fulfilled and his prophecies is in contemporary text. However after reading and doing research I have concluded that many individuals have questions and controversy about Isa. 7:14 meaning. The word almah or the word virgin definition and whether the verse is talking about Jesus being born some hundreds years later after this verse was written. ISAIAH 7:14B IN NEW MAJOR CHRISTIAN BIBLE TRANSLATIONS states that “These multiple mistranslations of the Hebrew text, beginning in the LXX, caused it to be misinterpreted for centuries in Christianity(DUROUSSEAU, pg.177, 2013)”. Sadly, I do not think that we as individuals have a clear understanding of the insights to Isa 7:14 as a result in my opinion I think that isiah did record Isa. 7:14 event in contemporary time and that the verse is referring to Jesus birth and that it is for our

The book of Revelation is apocalyptic in nature, meaning this kind of literature is full of symbolic connotation. Some of the symbolism is found in the Old Testament (e.g., Lion of Judah, Lamb of God), while some are found in the New Testament (e.g., Son of Man, bride of Christ). Others, though, are not biblical parallel (e.g., mark of the beast, scarlet beast, seven thunders) and are left up to interpretation. There are four places where John identifies himself as the author (1:1, 4,9; 22:8) but, an African bishop named, Dionysius argued Revelation could not have been written by the apostle John. This is due to the differing language, style and thought in Revelation compared to other works by John.

Scholars have understood Isaianic eschatology in two different ways. While some argue for postexilic, others assert apocalyptic. The postexilic proponents hold that the glorious future promises of the book of Isaiah, particularly those found in chapters 56–66, were meant to find fulfillment after the return from the Babylonian captivity. This position has several implications. First, some scholars believe that Isa 56–66 (so-called Trito-Isaiah) was written during, and reflects, the postexilic period.

However, the Old Testament actually foreshadows what will occur in the New Testament. Thus, by utilizing Jesus’s prophets and miracles, the reader is able to tell that the Old Testament actually points towards the life of Jesus Christ. One event that pertains to the foreshadowing of the New Testament is when Solomon rides David’s favorite donkey into Jerusalem. This actions can be related to Jesus Christ because Jesus also rides one of his best donkeys into Jerusalem also. Another prophet that points to Jesus is Moses.

In Isa 65:20, the immediate context (vv. 17-25) as rightly discussed describes the transformation of society (vv. 18, 19, 22-24), nature (v. 25), and the people 's relationship with God (v. 19, 24). There is no link or connection to eschatological realities. The issues that Isaiah addresses in vv. 17-25 point to the immediate fulfillment after the return of the people of Israel from exile. Ekkehardt Mueller aptly posits that Isa 65:20 is to be considered as a “conditional prophecy for Israel, pointing for an ideal state that was never fulfilled on a local scale but that looks forward to the ultimate fulfilment on a universal scale found in Revelation 21-22.”

This apocalyptic writing from the Book of Isaiah conveys to its audience a warning against disobeying God and shows the severity of the consequences.

Isaiah 53 should be a very critical prophetic chapter of the Bible when it comes to establishing without ambiguity that Jesus Christ of Nazareth is indeed the Jewish Messiah long awaited for in Judaism. Popular in evangelical circles, this prophecy clearly describes some of what Jesus of Nazareth experienced while here on earth. Contrary to the systematic way the translation of the Word of God has been divided, my belief is that this prophecy began in Chapter 52:13 and continued until Chapter 53:11. Although this passage clearly talks about the suffering messiah Jesus, we know that the Jews in general rejected Him as the Messiah and are still awaiting for the messiah to come although He came 2000 years ago. This prophecy begins in verse 13 to 15 of chapter 52 and describes the Messiah as one who would be firstly wise.
