It has been claimed that Jesus fulfilled over 300 prophecies at his first coming. No one ever backs it up with scriptures. This thread will do that. However, there were just 30 and not 300.

Messiah would not be born until the House of David had once again returned to a state of poverty which it was during the days of David’s father Jesse. Messiah would be born into a house of lowliness.
Messiah would have the sevenfold fullness of the Spirit and act accordingly.

Isaiah 42:1-6
Messiah would be anointed by the Holy Spirit
Messiah would conduct himself gentleness and meekness
Although Messiah would appear to end in failure it would in fact be a complete success. The success of his mission actually required his death.
Messiah’s mission includes salvation of the Gentiles.

Messiah would bring justification to all who would believe in him.
