If you look at the Hebrew, they knew it
Not one OT saint was looking forward to the cross...not one. It was a mystery until after it happened.

And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree:
You must not leave the body hanging on the pole overnight. Be sure to bury it that same day, because anyone who is hung on a pole is under God’s curse.

Yes, a type, but not one was looking forward to the cross of Christ. We would never see the cross in this passage if the cross never occurred. Now that the cross has occurred, we can look back and read the cross into that passage.

The passage was there because the cross was going to occur.
And this would be a huge assumption.
Was it not a mystery until after the resurrection? His closest disciples didn’t know about the cross.
I am not going to argue this idiotic line of thought with you again.....the bible is clear....so was Jesus.....the cross is seen and testified to BEFORE Jesus was lifted....just because your relgion prevents you from Acknowledging this truth does not make it true nonetheless!!
Not only did they know it, the entire O.T. was full of a panoramic view when ALL PICTURES were put together!If you look at the Hebrew, they knew it
It does if you can make the bible say what you want it to say.....just like him saying...ALL 12 BELIEVED HE SHOULD NOT DIE......he constantly peddles his opinion as scripture truth!!
Cursed is one hung on a tree.....and then Isaiah 53.......
Yet the Bible calls it a mystery. If Satan would have known about the cross, he never would have initiated it. It had to be kept hidden until afterwards.
And because it was hidden to the whole world, not just the Jews, you conclude that it (the cross) was not for the Jews? Wouldn't that imply that the cross wasn't for anyone since no one new about it (including the Jews)?
Your reasoning makes no sense.

i believe so...Satan is the prince of this world
1 Corinthians 3
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
I got NEWS FOR YOU, Most of MAINLINE Christianity does agree on the Main Core of Christian Theology.
Only people from Border Line Groups and Psuedo Christian Cults, DISAGREE Vehemently.

I do no see how this verse supports the idea that Satan initiated the cross?
