 Isaiah was written approximately 700 B.C.,

and yet this portion of it so accurately describes Jesus and his life

that it is sometimes referred to as the "Gospel of Isaiah".

Isaiah 52:14-15 

 ...many were astonished at you;

his appearance was so marred; more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men:  So shall he sprinkle many nations; the kings shall shut their mouths at him:

for that which had not been told them shall they see;

and that which they had not heard shall they consider.


Isaiah 53

Who has believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?


For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he has no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

Surely he has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he opens not his mouth.

He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.

And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.

Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he has put him to grief: when you shall make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.

Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

From disciple John's point of view:

 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

The same was in the beginning with God.

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

That was the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world.


He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:  Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

Re:  John the Baptist:  There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, "This was he of whom I spake; He that comes after me is preferred before me: for he was before me".

John 1:1-15

 

Jesus: And if you will receive it, this is Elijah, which was for to come. 

He that has ears to hear, let him hear.


  Matthew 11:14-15

The voice of one crying in the wilderness, "Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight."

Matthew 3:2
