Prophecy of the Crucifixion

I believe one of the major testimonies, concerning the connection between the Old & New Testament, is the Old Testament prophecies. One prophecy I find most compelling is Psalm 22; The Crucifixion of Christ. If we align both Psalm 22 and Matthew 27 together, we get an amazing picture of prophecy foretelling and unfolding. Let me show you what I mean. We will reveal this truth in reverse; let’s start in Matthew.

The Crucifixion: Psalm 22

Isn’t it amazing how this prophecy was proclaimed around 600 years before Jesus came to earth?

Here is a link from Christian Apologetics & Research Ministry confirming my findings.
