Discover afresh the unity of the Old and New Testaments through this in-depth analysis of the themes, history, literature types, and specific laws of the Old Testament.
The Old and New Testaments both reveal Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and display God’s Kingdom, salvation, and rule. This is why studying the law is essential to believers today, in the New Covenant. When we understand the purpose and intent behind the laws of the Old Covenant, we see God’s love and divine purposes fulfilled in the New Testament. A pattern emerges of the ratification, obligation, and fulfillment of God’s promises woven throughout Scripture.
When we look intently into God’s perfect law, we discover that His laws have always been about inwardly freeing His people as opposed to mere outward guidelines. Only God could fulfill the obligation for the wages of man’s sin, and His plan of redemption has been unfolding from the beginning.
