God prophecied about the crucifixion a 1000 years before Christ came, and before crucifixion was ever used. In the book of Psalms 22:16kjv, the Bible says, "For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. The Lord said, "they have pierced my hands and my feet", which clearly speaks of the crucifixion of Christ.
The Lord Jesus said to His disciple after His resurrection, "Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have (Luke 24:39kjv)
When we continue in Psalm 22, v.18, the Bible says, "They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture."
In John 19:23-24, the Bible says, "Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.
They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did (John 19:23-24kjv) ~ This is clearly a fulfillment of the prophecy in Psalm 22:18.
It is very clear that Psalm 22:16, "They pierced my hands and my feet", refers to the crucifixion of the Lord Jesus Christ, and Psalm 22:18, "They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture", refers to Christ also. They go together. These prophecies have been fulfiiled in the Lord Jesus (who is the Christ).
Only the true God (the God of the Bible) can give a prophecy a thousand years before (and before crucifixion was ever used), and then fulfill this prophecy perfectly.
