Gee, you mean the truth of Jesus was hidden in the OT until Jesus came and taught the Apostles what the OT said about Him?

You mean that each and everything about Jesus wasn’t spelled out explicitly in the OT, but had to be implicitly gleaned from the stories of the OT?

You mean that the truth was revealed to Paul after the fact?

The other Apostles did not know this from their time with Jesus and the reception of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost?

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

No. I mean the truth of Jesus was hidden in the OT until the revelation from Jesus Christ revealed to Paul the fact that Christ was to DIE FOR OUR SINS, be buried, and rise again the third day, according to the scriptures.

You might think Peter and the11 knew the same thing, But that would be wrong.

"and He began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and of the chief priests, and scribes, andbe killed, and after three days rise again. And He spake that saying openly and Peter took Him and beganto rebuke Him." (Mark8:31,32).

"For He taught His disciples, and said unto them, the Son of Man is delivered unto the hands of men, and they shall kill Him. And after that He is killed, He shall rise the third day. BUT THEY UNDERSTOOD NOT THAT SAYING and were afraid to ask." (Mark 9:31,32).

Notice, Jesus Christ did not tell them he was to die for their sins. He told them He was to die.

It was spelled out. More importantly, Jesus Christ raised up another apostle, named him Paul and gave Revelations that had never been given before. They were called the mystery. They had been hidden since the foundation of the world. Until first revealed to Paul
