1025 entries for this category: The simple answer is that the life and death of Jesus did forefill the prophecies in order that the Jews would know that God was amoungst them. However the effect of Jesus was unusual in that the Jews rejected Jesus and they still do. The modern jewish writings argued that Jesus was only a prophet and not the "Son of Man". The reality is that when Jesus was rejected by the Jews, the good news of Jesus was passed to the gentiles and we all were able to profit from Jesus.
Jesus took careful time to explain all things about his death and resurrection. Does this give you confidence in his words and promises, knowing he and others had predicted his death and resurection? "Beginning from Moses and from the prophets, he explained to them in all the Scriptures the the things concerning himself."

Why were fulfillment of prophecies important? "note: Jesus predicted his death and resurrection?"... saying that the Son of Man must be delivered up into the hands of sinful men, and be crucucified, and the third day rise again....". There are also many accounts in the old testament of the Messiah hunderd to thousdands of years before the event.
