Prophecy 4 - Death of Jesus Christ
First, "the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing."
This is one of the prophecies in the Bible of the death of Jesus Christ.
"Cut off" describes his death. Isaiah 53:8 describes Jesus as "cut off from the land of the living." Jesus mentioned often that he must go to Jerusalem and die (e.g. Matthew 16:21).
One of Holman Hunt's most famous paintings of Jesus hangs in the Birmingham City Museum and Art Gallery, and is called "The Shadow of Death." Christ is pictured as a young man in Joseph's workshop. The sun is setting. Christ stretches out his hands after a hard day's work. At that moment, the artist catches Jesus' image. The shadow on the wall shows a man with arms outstretched like He's dying on a cross.
Jesus Christ lived his entire life in the Shadow of the Cross. He came to die on that cross for the sins of Israel and for the sins of the entire world.
After 69 "sevens" - 483 years, Jesus was "cut off".
