$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('armegeddon', 'T')he entire book of Isiah was found when they discovered the dead sea scrolls. They predated the council of nisea by hundreds of years. So you make the decision. Isiah had several prophecies regarding Jesus.
Are you sure they were about JC? Why don't Jews then accept thsi as proof of JC's divinity?
Here's wiki on Isaiah:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'C')hapters 24-34, while too complex to characterize easily, are primarily concerned with prophecies of a "Messiah," a person anointed or given power by God, and of the Messiah's kingdom, where justice and righteousness will reign.
This section is seen by Jews as describing an actual king, a descendant of their great king, David, who will make Judah a great kingdom and Jerusalem a truly holy city. It is traditionally seen by Christians as describing Jesus, who was, according to Christian genealogy, descended from David, and who began a non-political kingdom of justice which will one day encompass the whole earth.
A number of modern scholars believe that it describes, in somewhat idealized terms, King Hezekiah, who was a descendant of David, and who tried to make Jerusalem into a holy city.
Like I said, the word "messiah" was mistranslated.
