If it were that clear and ambiguous, they would kill a claimant in a different way.
Then how can anyone say with confidence that these prophecies have been fulfilled if they're just going to be vague and ambiguous? Do you really not see what is wrong with this?
Also, isn't God supposed to be in control here? If he is sovereign, couldn't he state a prophecy clearly and ensure that it be fulfilled anyway?
