God, the Son
January: The Son in the Old Testament
Read Genesis 1 and John 1.
In John 1, highlight the different names and characterizations of Jesus. There’s quite a list from that single chapter.
Read Exodus 3 and John 8:42-49. What name for Jesus is included in both?
Read Isaiah 41. Highlight each citation of the “Holy One of Israel”. Who, do you believe, is the “Holy One of Israel”? If you believe, as I do, that there are other examples of the presence of Christ in the Old Testament, note some of them and we can discuss them.
In each of the following prophecies, make a note of what is being foretold about Jesus and find it’s fulfillment in at least one place in the New Testament:
Isaiah 7: 14 and Micah 5:3
Isaiah 9:7 and Jeremiah 23:5
Micah 5:2
Jeremiah 31:15
Hosea 11:1
Isaiah 9:1,2
Psalm 110:4
Psalm 69:9
Isaiah 62:11;
Zech. 9:9
Psalm 41:9
Zech. 11:12,13
Isaiah 53:9-12
Psalm 22:16 and Zech. 12:10

Ex. 12:46 and Psalm 34:20
Psalm 16:9 and Isaiah 53:9
