on the wall which none of the wise men OF
Babylon could decipher was fulfilled to the

Biblical Prophecies Fulfilled
at ChriSfS Birth

The first chapter OF ST. Matthew, after
tracing the genealogy Of Jesus from David TO
Joseph. the husband OF Mary" states ex.
plicitly Verse 22): Nov all this was done.
that II might be fulfilled which was spoken of
the Lord by the prophet. saying. Behold. vir.
gin shall be with child. and shall bring forth
n son. and they shall call his name Emmanuel,
which being interpreted Is. God with U.s."
Many more fulillments OF this character have
been traced by comparing the Old and the New
Testaments. For instance. there is the state.
ment in Psalms ii.:7:
81 will declare the decree; the Lord hath
said unto me- Thou art nv Son this dav have
begotten thee" This Is compared with Luke
i.:35: And the angel answered and said unto
her. The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee and
the power Of the Highest shall overshadow
thee; therefore. also that holy thing which
shall be born OF thee shall be called the Son OF
God"
In this way hundreds OF passages of the Old
Testament. chiefly from the Psalms and
Prophets together with some passages from
Genesis have been connected with passages In
the New Testament to prove that the coming
OF the Saviour was looked for by the Jews and
foreto)d in countless ways. The Christians saw
and still see in Him the fulfilment of all these
prophesies, while the Jews do not accept the
identification Of these prophesies with Him.
and still look for the coming of another Mes.
siah descended from David, who is to lead them
back TO Palestine.
But the Saviour Himself was prophet. and
foretold events which came to pass. For ex.
ample. In Matthew, Chapter xiv, we read the
prediction Of the destruction OF Jerusalem and
the Temple
!. And Jesus went out and departed from
the temple: and his disciples came to him for
10 show him the buildings Of the temple.
& And Jesus said unto them, See We not all
these things? verify say unto you, There
shall not be left here one stone upon another
that shall not be thrown down
3. And AZ he sat upon the mount OF Olives,
the disciples came unto him privately, saying,
Tell u.s. when shall these things be? and what
snail be the sign OF thy coming and Of the end
OF the world?

or1ah the Hittite to battle to be slain. and

the one VINO promised the son Solomon to
David, and that prophecy was fulfilled
Many Of the prophets had promised that after
the captivity in Babylon. the Jews would re
turn to Palestine and rebuild the Temple. but
none OF them went into such details as the
prophet jeremiah. who went so far as to state
that after seventy years the Temple would be
re-established on Mount Moriah:

20. But hast lifted up myself against the

thy lords. thy wives and thy concubines. have
drunk wine In them; and thou hast praised the
gods OF silver and gold. of brass iron wood

gold about his neck. and made q proclamation
concerning him. that he should be the third
ruler In the kingdom.
80 In that night was Belshazzar. the king
Of the Chaldeans slain.
81 And Darius the MedIan took the kingdom,
being about three score and two years old
The fulfllment OF prophecy is most precise.
according to Christian scholars in the birth of
the Saviour which foretold in many places
In the Old Testament. They point to the pas.
sage in Isaiah, yii.:14.16:
Therefore. the Lord himself shall give you
sign: Behold. virgin shall conceive, and
bear son. and shall call his name Emmanuel
Butter and honey shall he eat that he may
know to refuse the evil and choose the good.
For before the child shall know to refuse
