This week we examine both predictive and illustrative prophecies of Jesus Christ's birth, life, ministry, death, burial and resurrection. We'll discuss "the seed of the woman", the prophecy of the enmity, a seventh sibling swap in Genesis, the reconciliation of heaven and earth, the concept of fatherhood, and the slaughter of the innocents. We'll talk about Melchizedek, replacement theology, the existence of the scriptures before the captivity, the dearth of Bible reading in the Old Testament and the possibility that some of the Jewish leaders believed Jesus was the Messiah, and that that knowledge motivated their desire to kill Him.
