Since there are so many verses regarded as applicable to Christ's words above, I will not comment on them individually. They contain many symbolic and some literal references to Christ, all of whose meanings are, of course, very great. For the most part, the Psalm 22 and Isaiah 53 speak about Christ's suffering and humiliation. Daniel gives the prophecy, well known for its astounding accuracy, of the time that the Messiah will be "cut off" (Dan 9:26) - 490 years after the command to rebuild the Temple at Jerusalem. (47:9) see As with all other prophecies, it seems clear to me, that these verses could only have been rightly understood after fulfillment
(47:10)
