Some say the The Old Testament is the New Testament concealed. And the New Testament is the old Testament revealed.
the Scriptures of the New testament did not take away or add anything to the old testament. The New Testament Shows the fulfillment of The Law of Moses and the Prophecies of the Messiah.

Prophecy

Fulfilled
7. And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and he sat upon him....
9. And they that went before, and they that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord:...
11. And Jesus entered into Jerusalem, and into the temple: and when he had looked round about upon all things, and now the eventide was come, he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.
other prophetic scriptures fulfilled by Christ declaring that he is the messiah, and the fulfillment of ALL of Gods promise for redemption
Isaiah 53 (perfect picture of Christs Crucifixion)
1. Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?
2. For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3. He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8. He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10. Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11. He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12. Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
Isaiah 50
6. I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.
many many many more.
If the Jewish people would search out there scriptures for the messiah. They will see that Christ has fulfilled every one of the prophecies required.
Including:
being born of a virgin
He was the heir of the throne of David
He was born in Bethlehem
He spoke in parables
he was a prophet of God
He binds the brokenhearted
He was rejected by his own people, the Jews
His triumphal entry through the gates of Jerusalem
Even given his many miracles, he was not believed
He was betrayed by a close friend
accused by false witnesses
Soldiers gambled for his clothing
He was/felt forsaken by God
He had no broken bones (despites the tragic beating he took)
His side was pierced
He was buried with the rich
He was resurrected by God
He ascended to the right hand of the father.
Theses prophecies are found in the old testament or the "Torah" and they are all fulfilled Chirst as recorded in the new testament.
There are several more but thats a lot of typing.
