The Old Testament is foundational for understanding the depth and continuity of God’s plan for humanity. It reveals a God who is intimately involved with His creation, guiding, correcting, and preparing His people for the coming Messiah. The stories of figures like Abraham, Moses, David, and the prophets illustrate God’s unwavering commitment to His promises, despite human shortcomings. Through these narratives, laws, and prophecies, the Old Testament emphasizes a divine pattern of covenant and redemption, enriching the context for the New Testament’s fulfillment of these promises through Jesus Christ. In every passage, readers are reminded of God’s holiness, patience, and boundless love, setting the stage for the ultimate redemption story revealed in the life and work of Christ.
