In Isaiah chapter 7 as well as Isaiah chapter 8, Isaiah, Gods prophet at the time, predicted the coming of Christ is extremely vivid detail. For years, skeptics accounted for this by claiming it was written after Jesus but given the appearance of having been written 600 years before Him. This was a early held claim until in the 1940s the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in a desert cave. Within this collection of ancient manuscripts, many ancient copies of the Gospels and the rest of the New Testament were found along with Old Testament books one of which being the Isaiah Scroll which was nearly the entire book of Isaiah containing all 66 chapters. This particular manuscript was dated to just around 125 B.C.E. which still means it was written before Jesus in any event. The scroll is on display in its entirety at a Jewish antiquity museum in Jerusalem. Your thoughts? dss.collections.imj.org.il/isaiah
