The Old Testament does not reference Christianity.
Another thought:
Actually, without the Hebrew scriptures, the Greek (New Testament) would make no sense...and vice versa. The Hebrew Scriptures (Old Testament) provide the 'framework' for the coming of the Christ, and though a 'cross' is not mentioned specifically, the principle is, at Deuteronomy 21:23 where it states that anyone hung on a stake (pole/tree) is cursed. This prophesies the death of Messiah, as he was cursed for our sake (Galatians 3:13)(2 Corinthians 5:21) .
Besides this, MANY facets of messiah's DEATH certainly are referenced in the OT.
Just a few examples are:
**Isaiah 53:4-12 - (fulfillment:Matthew 9:2-8; Matthew 20:28)
**Psalm 16:10, Psalm 49:15 - (fulfillment: Acts 2:31+32)(Acts 3:15)
**Psalm 22:16 - (fulfillment: Matthew 27:46, Mark 15:34)
**Psalm 31:14 - (fulfillment:(John 20:17)
**Isaiah 42:1-7 - (fulfillment: Matthew 12:18-21)
**Micah 5:2/John 7:40-42/Matthew 2:3-6(fulfillment:Luke 2:4-7)
**Psalm 34:20 - (fulfillment: John 19:33-36)
**Psalm 41:9 - (fulfillment: (Mark 14:18, John 13:18+26)
**Psalm 69:21 - (fulfillment: Matthew 27:48, Mark 15:36, Luke 23:36, John 19:29
**Isaiah 53:1-12 - (fulfillment: Matthew 20:28, Romans 5:6+19, 1Peter 2:24)
**Zechariah 11:12 - (Matthew 26:15, Matthew 27:9)
**Zechariah 12:10 - (fulfillment:John 19:37,Revelation 1:7)
**Zechariah 13:7 (Matthew 26:31)(John 16:32)- (fulfillment:(Mark 14:50)
