Don't call it the Old Testament!! - Seth Postell

It might seem like semantics here, and of course we still use the term "Old Testament", but have you thought about the effect this name has made on our reading of Scripture? When we refer to it as the "Old" Testament it gives the connotation that these books aren't relevant anymore. Dr. Postell dives deeply into why the covenants and promises in the books of the Tanakh are still active in our present and future.

    Dr. Seth! Thank you for this! About 18 years ago I started investigating the Hebrew roots of my faith. Torah, The Prophets, and the Writings have definitely inspired me to the way of how to live a redeemed life. Like you said All scripture is God breathed 2 Timothy 3:16. Jesus said in Matthew 5:17-20, that he did not come to abolish the Torah or the Prophet’s but to complete them and that they would always be relevant and should be obeyed as long as we retain the breath of life. I am a Native American Gentile grafted in and am truly grateful for God’s grace towards me. Thank you again, Brother Seth. Have a great evening. God bless. Blaze

    I've always seen the old covenant as "Messiah concealed" and the new covenant as "Messiah revealed". Everything in the old is pointing to the promised Christ and how we will know Him when He comes and the purpose for the new is to establish and defend His coming and describe the time when He shall return.

    doesn't matter what it's called, but in some churches, the pastor/teachers do not understand or believe in the types and figures of the OT or how it relate to the NT, and/or do not value prophesy. They think all people have to know is the NT/Gospel account for salvation or how to live the Christian Life. But read Hebrews. How can their congregations understand NT terms "Lamb of God" or "the shedding of blood" or why the disciples thought Jesus came to be King with no knowledge of the OT? ALL of it is the Word of God and a such is a blessing to learn!

    I have always loved all of scripture. I don't know how anyone can understand the New Testament without really studying the Bible of Jesus or Scriptures. You're right, the message from beginning to end is all about Jesus. Another thing that I guess I looked at differently is that once I understood how it was set up, I knew that the first five books were the "old testament". I just looked at the remainder as books revealing God's patience and mercy to a people who really, really, really need a Savior. Along with that the words of the prophets pertaining to the Messiah led to Jesus coming in the flesh....the word became flesh and dwelt among us! This channel really gives whole new insights to a lot of things that I never saw before in Scripture.

    Christians call the Tanakh the Old Testament because those are the scriptures written under the first covenant, the Mosaic covenant. ‘Old’ doesn’t mean irrelevant or outdated. The New Testament is ‘new’ because it is the Scripture written under the New Covenant, the covenant of grace that Jeremiah spoke of. Jesus said to his Apostles during his last supper “This cup is the New Covenant in my blood”. We can think of the Old Testament as the promise and the New Testament as the fulfillment.

The Road to Emmaus, Jesus based the best 'Bible study' on existing Scriptures. Not only is Old /New Covenant an issue for some but many preachers incorrectly present God as the OT wrathful, destroying God. As if the judging God is not in the NT huh? And the NT God is of grace. Grace as we know Gen 3:15 . So on soforth. Great teaching guys, thankyou for helping me use better language. Keep it up.

I WILL SAFEGUARD YOU and GIVE YOU as a covenant for the people And as a light of the nations Matthew 12: 17 in order to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, who said: 18 “Look!

Jesus said to his disciples they are a new covenant in his blood. He didnt say "you are The New Covenant to replace the old covenant. Any major new covenant must be with the people who held the old one being replaced. That would have to be Israel, but as christians Paul points out we are neither Jew nor Gentile but a new creation. We dont replace Israel. So what were you saying?

    I was raised to think of myself as a "Christian" though not church attending nor bible reading as a family. I was left on my own to evaluate religion in general. I was however given a bible. I was not impressed trying to read it following especially all the names, trying to keep them in mind, trying to understand why all those names were given. Today, finally, feeling very retired, I've found the time to truly take the time I need to follow the bible, however, picking a good bible was important. I forget how I came across The Complete Jewish Bible, but for the first time I'm finding myself fully engaged. "Old Testament" is a misnomer. Though I did already have great respect for Judaism in general, today I am incredibly impressed with the whole story. I'm so impressed how they have struggled to keep true to Adonia/God. And, I feel truly Messianic, like Jewish-Christian. Whether or not your background is from a blood line or a conversion into Judism, anyone who believes in Yeshua/Jesus is Messianic and can and/or should appreciate the whole story. Well, this is the "Old" and the "New" Testament but as one story. So simple, yet very significant to realize it is just one book, one story.

    I started reading the Old Testament front to back, every word, which ashamedly i never did before, and one of my takeaways is how much it emphasizes the Holiness of God. By the time i got to "be holy for I am holy" (paraphrased) being hammered home, I had a transformation in my mindset, and the power of Jesus' sacrifice was magnified immensely. I regret waiting so long to focus on the "old", because I'm seeing the "new" through new eyes now.

I truly started looking into the entire Bible back in 2015 and have learned so much for doing so. You are speaking truth about how many Christians see the books written before Christ's birth. I was guilty of that way of thinking and taught my daughter what I was taught. It has done a lot of damage to her walk. Now that I've told her what we were taught is a lie (on so many issues), she has a hard time believing and studying. Please pray for us.

I love that the Church I worshiped with taught much from the scriptures that were written before the Christ came. How can I understand the "New" without studying the "Old"? The Apostles taught Jesus from the Holy Scriptures; they did not have the gospels or letters that were written later when they first began discipling others.

Also man put a page in the Bible between the “Old” and the “New” testament kind of like trying to rebuild the wall between Jew and non Jew again. If Adonai tore the veil and the wall was torn down, why do we insist on rebuilding divisions. One God, one Holy Scripture, one Holy people. Amazing thing you find everything spoken in books Matt - Revelation is in the first 39 books. So stands to reason read it all. You can’t understand the end until you understand the beginning

    The first testament allows me to understand my Jewish roots and heritage as a Christian. It allows me to understand the whole counsel of the Love of God, and the second testament enables me to see my covenants in the present and eternity future. The entire bible is the most remarkable and beautiful love story ever told and continues to speak to the innermost part of our hearts. It was hard for me to grasp the fear of the Lord until I intently began to study the entire body of scripture in the first testament. I agree. There is nothing old about our family history, and using the word "Old Testament" infers that it is no longer relevant, which could not be further from the truth.

    I agree, but it’s worth noting that there are a couple of things that do naturally create a distinction between the “old testament” and the “new testament.” First, the one was written BC, and the other was written AD-so, they are distinguished by the incarnation (not insignificant). Second, one was written in Hebrew (+ a little Aramaic), and the other in Greek. So, it’s not that there are no distinctions, but I wholeheartedly agree that these distinctions are not as big as the terminology “OT” and “NT” may suggest to us. Maybe we should simply refer to them as “the Hebrew scriptures” and “the Greek scriptures.” That avoids any implication of one superseding or outdating the other, and acknowledges them equally as scripture, but still helps us refer to them individually when appropriate. And, it has the added benefit of reminding us how each of them came to us, in a particular language with a particular historical context.

    I can see that the term "old" testament is taken as an offensive word for the Jews. It's more like personal rather than biblical truth. Jesus, our Lord, Himself, mentioned on these verses in Luke 22:20 about the new covenant in His blood and in Mark 2:22 about the new wineskin and old wineskin. So, using the word "old" testament is an existing biblical terminology and there is no conflict about this. I think the good Dr. Seth is confused about the use of the term and how the term is treated. If we assume right away that the word "old" means outdated or obsolete, we are wrong since there is no bible verse that supports it. I'm a Christian from the Philippines and I was told to study both the old and new testament with the same degree. We have to be accurate with our information and meaning if we are to share His word. This is the reason why I am an avid listener to ONE FOR ISRAEL because I learned a lot about the old testament. I thank God so much for this channel. It is really an awesome source of learning the Word of God. If there is only an online school, I would have jumped in. I also share the same sentiment about some pastors, others are even leaders of the church, who are not really mindful of their words. Any pastors who would say that we are a new testament church, he is so wrong and I hope he would repent because there is no such biblical basis to call any churches as a new testament. I hope these kind of pastors be reminded that teachers will receive heavier punishment if we are not accurate with our knowledge or at least be humble enough to accept corrections. There is really a greater demand for accuracy when preaching His word. By the way, the new testament is something that we, non Jew Christians, can relate to since it talks about the expectations and instructions for a new convert like me. However, to study the new testament will never be accurate without studying the old. Again, the "old" testament is a biblical term, no conflict whatsoever associated with this word. So, it's okay to use it. It is just how we put meanings on this word that goes beyond biblical truth. In Christ, we are all the same -- Christians. In Jesus Christ's name, amen!

    We're refering to the Septuagint as the Old Testament/Covenant, in order to destinguish it from the New Covenant, since one is Prophetic and applies to the past, while the other is Messianic and applies to the present/future, so it's a crucial distinction from the Orthodox perspective.

    Thank you for the videos! One for Israel is one of my top two apologetic and evangelic resources for witnesses to Jewish people. I have two questions. Do you think that the Mosaic Law is still in effect( for Jewish people) for those who continue to reject Christ? We know that other covenants are still in effect such as the Davidic and Adamic among others, are still in effect. Also, is the Tetragrammaton a proper name for God the Father or the Trinity, in your opinion? Thanks.

And I shall sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean from all your filthiness and from all your idols I cleanse you. And I shall give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you. And I shall take the heart of stone out of your flesh, and I shall give you a heart of flesh, and put My Ruach within you. And I shall cause you to walk in My Laws and My Right Rulings and shall do them. And you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers. And you shall be My people and I shall be your Elohiym.”

    I didn't realize that New Testament church meant they didn't study from the "Old". It's hard to think of dividing the scriptures. I love the stories of Genesis, Exodus- the history, the people the way of God with them. The prophets, King David- the life lessons we learn through them. And through all- proclaiming a deliverer, a savior, one who would be the hope of the world. I love the way it all flows together- the walk of Jesus from birth to resurrection and ascension all foretold. I love the devotion of those who truely worshipped God. I don't know that I would understand the gosples as well without reference to the history of the "Old", Testament. Thank you for this understanding.

    Despite this edifying discussion, I feel that the gentlemen skirted around the most important point. The beginning of the New Testament starts with John the Baptist; essentially the last and greatest of the old Mosaic covenant priests. And he pointed to the Lord Jesus as the true Lamb of God. The fundamental difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament is the end of the Mosaic animal sacrifices and priesthood, replaced by Christ as now the one and only new Priest, Who has entered into the true Tabernacle in heaven. And so I think maybe the 2 parts of the Bible should be defined as animal blood vs. the blood of Christ (or foreshadowing vs. fulfillment). Animal blood is the unifying theme of the Old Testament going back to the clothing from animal skins that God made for Adam and Eve. This is why Paul was hated by his Jewish brethren; because he foretold the end of the Temple and the Mosaic sacrifices. And it is the reason why Stephen was stoned to death. The Mosaic covenant and its powerless sacrifices had been replaced by the true Lamb of God.

    It's true that there are different types of churches. I like full Bible teaching churches. There are some Christians who are "Jesus Only" or "New Testament church" but those are Christianity Lite in my opinion and they aren't really interested in getting the full meal. They are losing out by just wanting the "froth" or something to get them excited. There are people who think more, and people who like to think with their feelings and those kinds of people usually like things exciting and simple.

    At the beginning of her introductory video for her study of the first part of Exodus, Jen Wilkin tells a little story about how her 1 Peter study was a number 1 best seller on Amazon. She was somewhat taken aback and went to online look and see for herself, only to find that it had been miscatagorized under “Old Testament Studies”. She goes on to make the point that Seth is making here, that the “Old” Testament is just as inspired, just as important, and just as authoritative as the New Testament, and that believers - especially Gentile believers - need to understand and study it just as thoroughly, being sure to keep the Jewish perspective and mindset in view. We western Gentile Christians often have trouble fully grasping and understanding the Hebrew Bible, especially the cultural aspects that we were not raised in. I really love studying the Law and the Prophets because in addition to giving me a more complete picture of my Savior, it helps me understand the New Testament, written by Jewish believers in Messiah.

    Todah Rabah Dr Seth. I am so glad you made this video. I took the effort to study the Hebrew language to speak it as a 3rd language also to help me understand the sacret, authoritive scriptures, I also call it Yeshua's or Jesus' Bible. No one here in South Africa where I live believes me. Your video confirmed to me once again what Haruach Qadosh taught me om how to see it. I really enjoy studying the Torah, Prophets and the Writings from the Hebrew. Barukh atah echad ki Yisrael.

    If people would do an exhaustive or at least very thorough comparison search of what we call the Old and New Testaments most people would be utterly astounded how many New Testament verses are direct quotations of Old Testament verses and many other verses are paraphrases or partial quotations of Old Testament verses. Also, the newer scriptures often are like expository, or almost commentaries of earlier scriptures. No doubt, the latter scriptures add more understanding, clarity and revelation to what earlier scriptures have already said. However a good knowledge of the Old Testament is necessary for a better understanding of the New. I love the expression, "In the Old Testament the New Testament is concealed; In the New Testament the Old Testament is Revealed". It's all our LORD's words and the nearer we draw to Him the more we should hang on to every word He has said!
