How do we know that Jesus fulfilled all Old Testament prophecies?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus' life and death fulfilled numerous prophecies about the coming Messiah, including His birth, sacrificial death, and resurrection.

The fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies is evident throughout the life of Jesus, as highlighted in the Gospel narratives. For instance, passages such as Matthew 1:23 confirm the prophecy of the virgin birth, while Micah 5:2 predicts His birthplace in Bethlehem. The assertion that 'the scriptures might be fulfilled' appears multiple times in the New Testament, affirming that Jesus lived in accordance with divine prophecy. As evidenced through events like His crucifixion and resurrection, prophecies indicated these outcomes well in advance, establishing the legitimacy of Jesus as the Messiah. Through His life, He rendered the law obsolete, as noted in Hebrews 8:13, fulfilling every requirement laid out for the Redeemer.
