Prophecies About Messiah Fulfilled!-Part 2

In this post, I'm showing you some old testament prophecies and their fulfillment in the new testament. There are many more than I will share!  The next post will explain Psalm 22.  In the next couple of days, I will start into the 70 week prophecy, and outline how the Bible proves Jesus is Messish!  Thanks for Checking it out! 
  I put the old testament prophecy, and directly after it the scripture showing it's fulfillment in the new testament:-)  There is a P for prophecy, and F for fulfillment in front of each scripture:-)  I have put a title for each set of scriptures.  I hope this draws you closer to your Messiah.
  Born In Bethlehem:
P-Micah 5:2 "But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,
Though you are little among the thousands of Judah,
Yet out of you shall come forth to Me
The One to be Ruler in Israel,
Whose goings forth are from of old,
From everlasting.” 
  There are 2 different Bethlehem's, and God specified which one.
F- Luke 2:4,5 & 7, "Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife,[a] who was with child.  And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn."
Born Of A Virgin
P-Isaiah 7:14, "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel."
F-Luke 1:26-27 & 30-31, "Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, 27 to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin’s name was Mary.  Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. 31 And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS."
Slaughter Of The Innocents
P-Jeremiah 31:15, "A voice was heard in Ramah,
Lamentation and bitter weeping,
Rachel weeping for her children,
Refusing to be comforted for her children,
Because they are no more.”
F- Matthew 2:16-18, "Then Herod, when he saw that he was deceived by the wise men, was exceedingly angry; and he sent forth and put to death all the male children who were in Bethlehem and in all its districts, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had determined from the wise men. 17 Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet, saying:
18 “ A voice was heard in Ramah,
Lamentation, weeping, and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children,
Refusing to be comforted,
Because they are no more.”
This, to me, is a picture of God's grief over His rebellious children who will be lost forever when they are destroyed.
Flight To Egypt
P-Hosea 11:1, "When Israel was a child, I loved him,
And out of Egypt I called My son. 
F-Matthew 2:14-15, "When he arose, he took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt,  and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt I called My Son.”[
Declared The Son Of God
P-Psalm 2:7, "I will declare the decree:
The LORD has said to Me,
‘You are My Son,
Today I have begotten You."

To Heal The Brokenhearted"
F-Matthew 3:17, And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
To Heal The Brokenhearted
P-Isaiah 61:1-2, "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me,
Because the LORD has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD,
And the day of vengeance of our God;
To comfort all who mourn."
F-Luke 4:17-19And He(Jesus Christ) was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written:
18 “ The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me,
Because He has anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,[a]
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.”[
Rejected By His Own People, The Jews
P-Isaiah 53:3, "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."
F-John 1:11, "He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him" 
Luke 23:18, " And they all cried out at once, saying, “Away with this Man, and release to us Barabbas.”
Betrayed By A Friend
P-Psalm 41:9, "Even my own familiar friend in whom I trusted,
Who ate my bread,
Has lifted up his heel against me."
F- Luke 22:47-48, "And while He was still speaking, behold, a multitude; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him. 48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
Sold For 30 Pieces Of Silver
P-Zechariah 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."
F-Matthew 26:15, "and said, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver Him to you?” And they counted out to him thirty pieces of silver."
Spat Upon And Smitten
P-Isaiah 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."
F-Matthew 26:67, "Then they spat in His face and beat Him; and others struck Him with the palms of their hands."
Pierced Through Hands & Feet
P-Zechariah 12:19, "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."
F-John 20:27, "Then He said to Thomas, “Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing.”   
Scorned & Mocked
P-Psalm 22:7-8, " All those who see Me ridicule Me;
They shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying,
8 “He trusted[a] in the LORD, let Him rescue Him;
Let Him deliver Him, since He delights in Him!”
F-Luke 23:35, "And the people stood looking on. But even the rulers with them sneered, saying, “He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ, the chosen of God.”
Given Vinegar & Gall
P-Psalm 69:21, "They also gave me gall for my food,
And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink."
F- Matthew 27:34, " they gave Him sour[a] wine mingled with gall to drink. But when He had tasted it, He would not drink."
Soldiers Gambles For His Coat
P-Psalm 22:17-18, "I can count all My bones.
They look and stare at Me.
 They divide My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots."
F-Matthew 27:35-36, "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.
 Sitting down, they kept watch over Him there."
No Bones Broken
P-Psalm 34:20, "He guards all his bones;
Not one of them is broken."
F-John 19:32-33, 36,  "Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Him.  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."
To Be Resurrected
P-Psalm 16:10, "For You will not leave my soul in Sheol,
Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption.

Even from the rebellious,
That the LORD God might dwell there."
