Actually,"Jesus" is a Roman,not a Hebrew name and is not mentioned once. Nor,as far as I'm aware is the name Yeshua/Yoshua bar Yosuf .
Nor did Jesus come close to fulfilling prophecy for the Messiah, beginning with: The Messiah is to be a military as well a spiritual leader,in the Davidic tradition. It is emphatically stated that the Messiah is to be to normal man and most definitely NOT DIVINE.
So far,I have yet to see ANY credible evidence for any kind of precogintion,fortune telling or prophecy. The Christian claims that Jesus met messianic are farcical and I believe essentially dishonest.
....
If I remember correctly, Christians just say that the remaining prophecies not fulfilled will be fulfilled during Jesus 2: Hellfire Boogaloo otherwise known as the second coming.
