| | Chapter 1: What Is the Old Testament? |
| | For the Christian, the Old Testament is that part of Holy Scripture known and quoted by Jesus and the New Testament writers. | | | THE Old Testament is a collection of selected writings composed and edited by members of the Hebrew-Jewish community between the twelfth century B.C. and the beginning of the Christian era. | | | The authors of the New Testament Gospels drew upon the LXX to prove that Jesus was the Messiah and the fulfillment of Jewish prophecy, using some passages which the Jews argued had been inadequately translated from the Hebrew to the Greek (particularly Isaiah 7:14; compare with Matt. |

| | The original Old Testament canon was the Septuagint, long used in the Greek-speaking church and still retained by the Orthodox churches. | | | The Old Testament was written in Hebrew, with a small portion in Aramaic (parts of the books of Daniel, Ezra, and Jeremiah). | | | The number of Old Testament books (not counting the Apocrypha) stands at 39; in the Hebrew Bible they are usually counted as 24. |

| | Old Testament |
| | The God of the Old Testament is a god of justice, but no sin is accepted. | | | The central themes of the Old Testament are the uniqueness and glory of God; the Law; God's influence on world history and nature; corporate and individual sin and the remedy; and the proper way to worship God. | | | The Old Testament is however, understood as the foundations on which the New Testament rests. |

| | For example believers in the present church age are under the New Covenant, not the Old Covenant. | | | Christians are not under the Old Covenant, and their sins are covered by the death of Christ. | | | Each of the Old Testament laws had a meaning for its first audience, a meaning that is related to the Old Covenant. |

| | The Role of Women in Worship in the Old Testament |
| | The Nazirite, the most holy person in the Old Testament by choice, not by birth as in the case of the high priest, likewise was married (see Numbers 6:1-21). | | | Furthermore, the historically conditioned texts in the rest of the Old Testament cannot be ruled out of hand as not normative practices of the Church in its worship before God for at least three reasons. | | | In the Old Testament women were called to be "prophetesses," God's mouth in the world, on an equal footing with prophets. |

| | Following the precedent of Origen and the Alexandrian tradition, the saintly doctor recognized no other formal canon of the Old Testament than the Hebrew one; but also, faithful to the same tradition, he practically admitted the deutero books to a Scriptural dignity, as is evident from his general usage. | | | The sure starting-point for a correct estimation of the text of the Old Testament is the evidence obtained from the manuscripts. | | | All the books of the Hebrew Old Testament are cited in the New except those which have been aptly called the Antilegomena of the Old Testament, viz., Esther, Ecclesiastes, and Canticles; moreover Esdras and Nehemias are not employed. |

| | Salvation in the Old Testament |
| | Paul mentions in Romans 3 that Old Testament believers were forgiven "in the forbearance of God" (Rom 3:25). | | | The "Law and the Prophets" is a technical term for the Hebrew Scriptures, our Old Testament Paul specifically backs up his teaching by citing Abraham's justification by faith from Genesis (Rom 4) and David's speaking of the forgiveness of sins in Psalm 32 (Rom 4:7-8). | | | Salvation in the Old Testament isn't discussed primarily in terms of “going to heaven”— but in terms of belonging to God” as his people. |

| | In the Old Testament the people of God are usually called Israel, the people of Israel, the Israelites, the Hebrews, and at a fairly late period in their story, the Jews or Judah. | | | The period between the restoration, described in the Old Testament, and the birth of Jesus, as told in the New Testament, is over 400 years. | | | So the Old Testament that you will be studying has the same books as the Hebrew Bible, but has them in the order in which they appear in the Septuagint, except that the Apocrypha has been pulled out and bound separately. |

| | The Old Testament Canon |
| | The Bible used for most Scripture quotations in the New Testament is the same Bible used by the Ethiopian Jews mentioned above and the same Bible used by Christians in the earliest centuries of the Church -- it is named the Septuagint (or LXX). | | | Not the Hebrew Bible, since the majority of the New Testament was composed in Greek. | | | One of the reasons that the LXX is of value is that expresses the opinions of the Jewish people in the times prior to Christ, during an age where later opinions of him could not have biased their writings or thoughts with respect to Christian issues. |

| | When examining the question of what books were originally included in the Old Testament canon, it is important to note that some of the books of the Bible have been known by more than one name. | | | The deuterocanonicals are those books of the Old Testament that were included in the Bible even though there had been some discussion about whether they should be. | | | You that have grown old in wicked days, now your sins which you have committed before have come to light, for you have pronounced false judgments and have been accustomed to condemn the innocent and to let the guilty go free, although the Lord says, ‘You shall not slay the innocent and the righteous’ [Dan. |

| | What I could never understand was that they advertise themselves as Christian, yet most of their preaching comes strictly from the Old Testament, the teachings of the Jewish religion. | | | These so-called "Christian" preachers seem to select Old Testament passages to quote far more often than New Testament passages, the "Jesus" part of the Bible. | | | It would be of no importance anyway, except the whole concept has come up in the news lately in the form of the rabid and unconditional support of anything and everything Israel does by just these type of Old-Testament Christians. |
