What are the Old Testament prophets and Psalms looking forward to?

The Old Testament prophets, Psalms, and other writers prophetically looked forward to and promised the First Advent of Christ—His birth at Bethlehem—when He came to the nation of Israel. Psalms chapter 2 serves as the outline of this prophetic program.

Les explains that according to his timeline, after Adam, the Flood, the Tower of Babel, the call of Abraham, the appearance of Israel, and then Moses, the Exodus, and the Law, the rest of the Old Testament writers—the prophets, the Psalms, and everything else—are prophetically looking forward to and promising the First Advent of Christ, His birth at Bethlehem, when He came to the nation of Israel. He identifies Psalms chapter 2 as the outline of this prophetic program. In Old Testament language, non-Jews are called Gentiles, Goyim, heathen, or uncircumcised.
