And Zechariah 12:10
"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and pleas for mercy, so that, when they look on me, on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a firstborn."

Aquinas believed that if one took a literalist and inerrant interpretation of the OT, Jesus could not be the Messiah. OTOH, if one didn't take that approach, then the general "atmosphere" of the OT could be interpreted whereas Jesus could be and was in his opinion.
