Christians. If you can, please explain what appear to be three false prophecy claims in Gospel of Matthew?

All the apparent prophecies seem to not be prophecies at all but just facts mentioned during a particular chapter subject like Israel etc. So it seems totally bogus.





1) Matthew 2:14-15:





14 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:


15 “ The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,


By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,


Galilee of the Gentiles:





By just going to places, he is claiming that Jesus fulfilled a prophecy. Well, it wasn’t a prophecy to begin with. It was merely a statement of fact by Isaiah in 9:2, and this is talking about the same warfare of the invasion that took place by Israel and Syria when they had plans on coming down against Judah; that they were invaded by Assyria.





Isaiah 9:1-2:


The Government of the Promised Son


1 Nevertheless the gloom will not be upon her who is distressed,


As when at first He lightly esteemed


The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,


And afterward more heavily oppressed her,


By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,


In Galilee of the Gentiles.


2 The people who walked in darkness


Have seen a great light;


Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death,


Upon them a light has shined.





There was warfare in the land but they were saved from this warfare. The people walked in darkness. The writer of Matthew chooses to say that they sat in darkness in verse 16, but no, the original says that they walked in darkness and they saw a light. This was reference to a hoped end by the grace and guidance of God.


Simply because Jesus went near to these towns that happened to have been mentioned by Isaiah, he was fulfilling prophecy?





2) Jesus told his disciples to buy swords and, if they don’t have any, to sell their cloaks to afford to buy some.


Judas shows up and Jesus says to him, following the kiss on his cheek, “Judas, you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”


Then Jesus says, to the servants of the high priest, that he was teaching in the temple at the night of his arrest, so he clearly was not betrayed by Judas because every one knew what Jesus looked like because he was always preaching in the synagogues, and of course Peter cut off the ear of one of the servants and Jesus says, in 26:54, “How then can the scripture be fulfilled? That thus it must be?”


Basically, he was asking how he could fulfill scripture with swords he told him to get!


So, to clarify the ludicrousy: Jesus tells his disciples not to defend him with the swords that he earlier told them to get to defend him at his arrest, there is one disciple to point him out for the five-hundred servants, and a remainder eleven still on his side.


























3) The gospel of Matthew is just an insult to the rest of the bible, which is proven beyond any doubt whatsoever by a ridiculous passage in 21:2, involving Jesus instructing his disciples to find an *** for “the Lord hath need of them”, which is meant to be a fulfillment of “prophecy” in Zacariah 9:9:





9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ***, and upon a colt the foal of an ***.





Matthew 21:5:





5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ***, and a colt the foal of an ***.





If this is a fulfillment, then Jesus must have been trying to go down the road on two asses!Christians. If you can, please explain what appear to be three false prophecy claims in Gospel of Matthew?
Is it really any mystery to you why you don't have the spirit to understandChristians. If you can, please explain what appear to be three false prophecy claims in Gospel of Matthew?
It is speaking of any other teaching that Christ didnt preach. Anything opposed to what the Bible says.
