Justin Martyr, First Apology 35

Christ was about to release all other human beings from the moment of his birth until he reached manhood, and this has come to pass; listen now to the prophecies spoken for this very purpose. They are these: "A child is born to us, and a son is given to us, and the government rests upon his shoulders" (Isaiah 9:6); this is a sign of the power of the cross, upon which he took the weight of the cross-beam upon his shoulders when he was crucified, a truth that will become even clearer as the Word advances. Again, the same prophet Isaiah, carried by the prophetic Spirit, declares: "I have stretched out my hands all day long to a disobedient and contrary people, to those who walk in a way that is not good. They demand justice from me and dare to draw near to God" (Isaiah 65:2; 58:2). And again, through another prophet, he says in different words: "They have pierced my hands and my feet, and they cast lots for my clothing" (Psalm 22:16, 18). King David, who was both king and prophet, spoke these words yet suffered none of these things himself; but Jesus Christ was put to the test regarding his hands, crucified by the Jews who opposed him and claimed he was not the Christ. Indeed, just as the prophet foretold, they dragged him away, seated him on a judgment seat, and said, "Judge us." The phrase "They pierced my hands and feet" explains the nails driven through his hands and feet on the cross. After they crucified him, they cast lots for his garment and the soldiers divided it among themselves. You can verify that these things happened from the official records compiled under Pontius Pilate. And since it was explicitly foretold that he would sit upon a donkey's colt and enter Jerusalem, we will cite the words of another prophet, Zechariah. They are these: "Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem. Behold, your king comes to you, righteous and humble, mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a beast of burden" (Zechariah 9:9).
