Christmas Prophecy 14

The Messiah would be wounded and bruised.


Prophecy -

Isaiah 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.


Fulfillment -

Matthew 27:26b
...and when he [Roman governor Pilate] had scourged Jesus, he delivered Him to be crucified.


You can read a full account of the beating Jesus endured in Matthew 26:57 - 27:56, Mark 14:53 - 15:41, Luke 22:63 - 23:49, and John 18:19 - 19:37.
