How do we know Christ's resurrection was prophesied in the Old Testament?

Answered in 1 source

The resurrection of Christ is foreshadowed in multiple Old Testament prophecies like Jonah's and Hosea's writings.

Christ's resurrection is foreshadowed throughout the Old Testament, with Jonah serving as a significant type of Christ. Just as Jonah was in the fish's belly for three days, Christ would be in the grave for three days before rising again (Matthew 12:40). Additionally, Hosea 6:2 prophesies, 'After two days will He revive us; in the third day, He will raise us up'. These prophecies affirm the continuity of God's redemptive plan culminating in Christ’s victory over death.
