The Prophets laid-out Israel's (now-past) history in advance, so that:
1. The Jews would have courage to believe for their restoration, after they would go into captivity;
2. So they would understand their need beyond that, of a Saviour; and would have a basis for recognising Him when He came; and
3. For us who believe, to authenticate and assure us of our position with God through the Gospel - through a Scriptural and historical basis - through understanding Prophecy and its outcome in (now-past) history.
