You have asked a VERY GOOD THING !! And this may surprise you a VERY EASY THING :-} There are so many prophecies about Jesus that indeed one finally must conclude that BIBLE is ALL about the Christ. The one I like the best is Isaiah 52 and 53.. Do you have a BIBLE ?? The last of Chapter 52 and chapter 53 describe the Death of the Lord on the Cross. Why do I like it so much ?? Because I had a bible that was printed before the Dead Sea Scroll were found in 1947. In the back they had explanations about the different books. There was a very widely accepted theory that the Book of Isaiah was actually two books that got put together somewhere along the line by mistake. Many Christians even believed the theory because the prophecies where so powerful. The theory was that the first 40 chapters were written by Isaiah before Christ and that the rest was written by another later author After Christ. They even could "prove" it because the writing style supposedly changed dramatically between chapters 40 and 41. Then the Dead sea scrolls were found. They are accept by archaeologists throughout the world as being 3000 years old. Not just Christian but Historians and unbelievers alike. It contained the book of Isaiah.66 chapters. Go to your local library and read up on them. Heres another interesting FACT when the text is compared to todays Bible it has some grammatical variation but NO TEXTUAL VARIATIONS at all.. So if we can prove that the bible has remained relatively unaltered for the last 3000 years why should we assume that much changed prior to that ??? LOGICAL ???? Another interesting point is that if you want to know about the Death of the Lord from a FACTUAL point of view you should read the new testament which was written after it happened. If you want to know what Jesus felt and thought you should read the Psalms which are the Voice of Christ recorded by David 750 years before Christ. See Psalm 22
