The Book of Revelation wasn't written until decades after the Gospel of Luke.I think the bible refers occassionally to the "book of life"? it does in Revelations as it is from here that all peoples actions are recorded and judged if I remember correctly.
"He told them, "This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day," (Luke 24:46)
Where is this written?
The author of the Gospel of Luke may have been referring not to Jewish scripture but to the “Gabriel Stone” also known as “Gabriel's Revelation”.

There are many passages that point to Jesus being the Messiah.One of my favorites is where Jesus is described as not having his bones broken during his death.
John 19:33 But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs.
John 19:36 These things happened so that the scripture would be fulfilled: "Not one of his bones will be broken,"
Here is the passage from the OT.
Psalm 34:20 he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken.
If we go back to the book of Exodus in the OT we can see a passage that describes a foreshadowing of the coming Jesus Christ.
Exodus 12:46 "It must be eaten inside the house; take none of the meat outside the house. Do not break any of the bones.
God's people were in Egypt as slaves and God delivered them with Moses.They were told to slaughter and eat a 1 year old male sheep or goat.It was to have all it;s blood spilled out and not to have it's bones broken.This foreshadowed Jesus.
Also the piercing with a spear in Jesus side was also spoken of in the OT.
John 19:36,37. …36For these things came to pass to fulfill the Scripture, "NOT A BONE OF HIM SHALL BE BROKEN." 37And again another Scripture says, "THEY SHALL LOOK ON HIM WHOM THEY PIERCED."
Zechariah 12:10
"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.
