How does the Old Testament reveal Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The Old Testament portrays a growing revelation of Jesus through promises and prophetic pictures leading to His fulfillment in the New Testament.

The Old Testament serves as a foundational text that contains numerous portraits of Jesus Christ, painted through prophecies and typologies. Every book contributes to a clearer depiction of who Jesus is and what He came to accomplish. From the sacrifices outlined in Leviticus to the prophetic declarations in Isaiah, each passage acts as a building block that leads to the full revelation of Christ in the New Testament. This continuity illustrates God’s redemptive plan throughout history, culminating in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. For Christians, seeing Christ in the Old Testament deepens their understanding of the Scriptures and enhances their faith in the cohesive narrative of God’s salvation plan.
