Jesus is not mentioned by name in the OT, but one can use deductive reasoning to come to the conclusion that He did indeed appear. Simply put, Christ is God incarnate, therefore anytime that Scripture refers to God as an incarnate being, it is in fact Jesus. We know from the NT that Christ was around "since the beginning," and we perceive that the Trinity is in fact the complete picture of God, therefore in instances such as when God walked with Adam in the garden of Eden, we can say that it was Jesus doing the walking. So my answer is that yes Jesus is in the OT, and that many people saw Him. -mm42883 |

Dear mm42883, Welcome to the Forum! You ask an interesting question:-) Jesus as the Eternal Son of God is understood to have appeared in the OT as the Angel of the Lord. This is referred to as a Christophany, a preincarnate appearance of Christ. You may want to study the 68 occurrences of this phrase. One of the better known and referenced occurrences is in Exodus 3:2 where the Angel of the Lord appears in the midst of the burning bush. One of the more interesting appearances is of the Angel and Baalam in Numbers 22:22-35! I hope this helps. Speaking The Truth In Love, BradK |
