Did the Old Testament contain the teachings of and the written records of the life of Jesus?

No, the Jewish Cannon of their scriptures (commonly referred to as the "Old Testament") had closed roughly 400 years before Jesus (the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew name Jeshua, which is used in the Old Testament to refer to the follower of Moses that brought the Jews into Canaan) was born. The followers of Jesus recorded stories of his teachings, life, death, resurrection, and ascension in the books that were ultimately collected into the New Testament. Most Jews reject Jesus as a Messiah (transliterate into Greek as Christ) and the New Testament. The Catholic Church closed the Christian Cannon of the New Testament about 400 years after Jesus died.
