''The
New Testament frequently cites Jewish scripture to support the claim of the
Early Christians that
Jesus is the
Messiah, and to support faith in Jesus as the
Christ and his imminent expected
Second Coming. The majority of these quotations and references are taken from the
Book of Isaiah, but they range over the entire corpus of Jewish writings. People of the Jewish faith do not regard any of these as having been fulfilled by Jesus, and in some cases do not regard them as messianic prophecies at all. According to modern scholars, there are no Old Testament prophecies about Jesus, since these either were not prophecies (the verses make no claim of predicting anything) or the verses do not explicitly refer to the Messiah.
