While reading through Mispa's Isaiah thread I wondered, why not make a thread where we can identify Yeshua in the Old Testament and in that way encourage each other with the true gospel of Yeshua the Messiah?

The whole Bible is about JESUS for HE is the WORD. But here is one I thought I would mention.
Gen 22:8
And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together.
This prophecy of the Lamb of God is underscored when Abraham later espies the ram caught in a thicket by its horns, and he offered it up to God instead of Isaac. Of course this ram did not fulfill Abraham's prophcy, but we know this. God bless all in Yeshua, amen.

Gen 37:13 And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.
Gen 37:14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
The Dad is calling the Son asking if he is willing to go to the flock, and the Son said “Here am I” (Isaiah 6:8).
The Dad then tells the Son to go to a place and find out from the members how the flocks are doing, and bring him word. He (the Father) send his Son to the association/ company (Hebron ) and He came to this hindrance on both shoulder blades (Shechem).
Does this sound familiar? God send His Son, to see to the welfare of the flock. The Son then sees the state of the church and for speaking up, he received this burden on His shoulders (could it be the beam of the cross?).
And another interesting thing to consider is, it was Judah that sold out Joseph as it was the Jews (tribe of Judah) that sold out Yeshua.
When Joseph came to Shecem he was informed that his brothers moved to Dothan, meaning two wells. Just like Joseph, Yeshua was also thrown into a well/dungeon (the same word in Hebrew) below the house of Caiaphas
He went to help his brethren, and they put him in a pit, into the earth. He was taken up from the pit to become second only to Pharoah, King of Egypt............ and so go the parallels, amen. Good posting. Yahweh bless you and hold you ever close to him.
