Reddit mentions of The Wolf Shall Lie With the Lamb: The Messiah in Hasidic Thought

Shmuley Boteach in The Wolf Shall Lie With the Lamb: The Messiah in Hasidic Thought quotes Moses Maimonides who was writing in the twelfth century as saying “this belief in the Messiah is in accordance with the prophecies concerning him, by all the prophets, from our master Moses until Malachi, peace be unto them.” We see the emphasis on the pervasive nature of the Messianic hope in the Hebrew Scriptures. It should come as no surprise, then, that the writers of the new covenant Scriptures saw references to the details of Jesus’ life throughout the Hebrew Bible. We can summarize the main prophecies that Jesus fulfilled (and is fulfilling) as follows:

1. He was born where the prophet said he would be born (cf. Targum Jonathan, Rashi, and Radak on Micah 5:2.
   
   
2. He came into the world when the prophets said he would according to the combined prophetic witness of Daniel, Haggai, and Malachi, along with hints found in the Talmud.
   
   
3. He performed miraculous deeds of deliverance and healing, in accordance with the prophecies of Isaiah (Isa. 35:5–7; 49:6–7; 61:1–3).
   
   
4. He was rejected by his own people, as was prophesied (Ps. 118:22; Isa. 49:4; 53:2–4).
   
   
5. He suffered before his exaltation, as the prophets declared (Psalm 22; Isa. 52:13–15; Zech. 9:9).
   
   He died and then rose from the dead, according to the Scriptures (Isaiah 53; Psalms 16; 22).
   
   
6. He has brought the light of God to the nations, as the prophets said he would (Isaiah 42, 49, 52) so that countless millions of people now worship the God of Israel through him.
   
   
7. His last act, before he returns to Jerusalem in power and glory, will be to turn his people Israel back to him (Isaiah 49) and it is this that he is now doing!
   
   In addition to these major prophecies, the New Testament also points to lots of minor, specific fulfillments, along with allusions, foreshadowings, and midrashic (i.e., homiletical) applications of texts from the Tanakh, in keeping with Jewish interpretive methods of the day. Thus, James Smith can point to more than one hundred verses from the Hebrew Bible that are cited or alluded to in the New Testament with reference to Jesus and/or the events relating to his ministry. These include verses such as:
   
   Isaiah 7:14, cited in Matthew 1:23;
   
   Jeremiah 31:15, cited in Matthew 2:18;
   
   Psalm 78:2, cited in Matthew 13:35;
   
   Malachi 3:1, alluded to in Mark 1:2;
   
   Psalm 69:17, cited in John 2:17.316
