What Are the Odds Jesus Is the Messiah? | The Gospels | Matthew 2:13–18

How could Jesus fulfill Old Testament passages that weren’t originally written as predictions? What does it actually mean for Jesus to “fulfill” Scripture? And how does the whole story of the Old Testament point us to him? In today’s episode, Patrick explores how Matthew 2:13–18 shows that Jesus fulfills Scripture not only through prophecy, but through the patterns and stories of the Old Testament, revealing him as the true and better Israel.
