How do we know Christ is the Rock mentioned in the Old Testament?
Answered in 2 sources
Christ is identified as the Rock in the New Testament, reaffirming Old Testament typology that connects Him to God's attributes.
Christ's identity as the Rock is substantiated by New Testament references that echo Old Testament imagery. In 1 Corinthians 10:4, Paul explicitly calls Christ the Rock that followed the Israelites, linking Him to their deliverance and sustenance in the wilderness. This typology is reinforced in the Psalms, where the psalmists frequently refer to God as their rock and salvation, suggesting a continuity in understanding God's character through the person of Jesus. Thus, the Scriptures collectively affirm Christ's role as the Rock throughout both Testaments.
