Christmas Prophecy 17

The Messiah would be crucified with thieves.

Prophecy -

Isaiah 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.

Fulfillment -

Matthew 27:38

Then two robbers were crucified with Him, one on the right and another on the left.

Mark 15:27-28

With Him they also crucified two robbers, one on His right and the other on His left. So the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “And He was numbered with the transgressors.”
