The whole POINT of the OT is to pave the way for His Coming to Earth. Everything about human life to that point is stepwise in God’s Plan — the timing, the political situation, the milieu.
Much of the OT (and the Torah) can be read in such a way to ignore the direct — and direct — references to Christ’s coming. But it takes a lot of work to actually PLACE one’s blind spot to blot out the truth (and The Truth).
IMHO.
