Our God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ be most blessed for ever, and our Great God and Father bless you in Christ our Lord.
I was on another thread, and posted on this, but I didnt like that one so much so I redid it added in much more (differently) and again, will most likely edit it (as always). The law and the prophets in what places I could make it flow, speaking of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and some of the references to them. (this is sorta longer) Just a combination of various into one.
After our Lord had risen...
And they talked together of all these things which had happened.
And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.
But their eyes were holden that they should not know him.
And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that ye have one to another, as ye walk, and are sad?
What things?
And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:
And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.
For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.
But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, to day is the third day since these things were done.
Yea, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulchre;
And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.
And certain of them which were with us went to the sepulchre, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.
Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:
They are they which testify of me
Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.
I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
I will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.
And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.
For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.
The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;
But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?
And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,
And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
And ye are witnesses of these things.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Philip hearing the eunuch reading the prophet Esaias
The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:
In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?
They are they which testify of me
Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.
But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin...
For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son,
Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called:
And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.
Him God raised up the third day, and shewed him openly;
And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I, my son. And he said,
Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
Looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God!
John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.
Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.
Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up
This he said, signifying what death he should die.
Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification.
Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven
And ye are witnesses of these things.
Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended?
Go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell among them.
Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended?
For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand
What is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell?
If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
And no man was able to answer him a word...
And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed
He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things
And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood
And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.
What think ye of Christ? whose son is he?
They say unto him, The Son of David.
He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?
Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.
And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
This he said, signifying what death he should die.
The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.
And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
And again, Esaias saith, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.
Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldest be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.
And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things
Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten thee.
That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the oath of God.
And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God.
Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father) full of grace and truth.
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:
But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses (the law) and Elias (the prophets)
Who appeared in glory, and spake of "his decease" which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.
And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed
These testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
But "those things", which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.
And God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead
Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.
But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:
Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ.
Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,
Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended?
For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?
Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world,
Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things
And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know?
How is it then that he saith, I came down from heaven?
And when he (Herod) had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.
And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,
And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.
For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also?
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.
Then Joseph (because he was of the house and lineage of David Luke 2:4 ) her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.
Hear ye now, O house of David
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying,
And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us.
If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
His life was "taken from the earth"
In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.
For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec
I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament
Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
For I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
Which in his times he "shall shew"
I will most likely edit this, Im just tired lol
Edited this 12 times, shows how the prophets before mesh in with the apostles a little better
