The Apostle Paul wrote "For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures." (1 Cor. 15:3-4 ESV) Was Jesus' suffering and crucifixion fortold in the Bible? Was it the good and wise plan of God? We'll look at a lot of Scripture to compare what was prophesied and what took place in the trials, sufferings and death of Jesus.
