A short introduction to the Old testament and the New Testament

The Old Testament is the common name which is used to call the front part of the

Bible. The late part is called the New Testament. The Old Testament is major Jewish

sutra that is original called

heritage. The original language is Hebrew. The story begins from that Moses led the

Israelites out of Egypt until Jesus was born. It used about 500 years to complete, and

it narrate the experience about 1000 years or so; Some scholars considered that it was

written from the time the Babylonian was a prisoner until the first century BC, in the

period of about 240 years, and it was later absorbed by Christian.

The number in the New Testament part is consistent, Catholic, orthodox, protestant all

acknowledge 27 volumes. The New Testament Canon was officially confirmed at

Carthage conference in 397. Its original book has lost the earliest manuscript

fragments now found is the copy in the second century. In the 4th century after the

New Testament, text more or less fixed, there are some caudexes such as Egypt,

Alexander, Syria codex. Now the earliest Greek bible codex is the codex in 4 ~ 5

century codex, some of the most famous codex are Alexander codex semantics, the

Vatican and so on.

2. The contact between the Old Testament and the New Testament

The Old Testament and the New Testament are together called Testament. The New

Testament is the heritor of the Old Testament. God make a covenant with Israelite, but

the covenant was failed. So god makes a new covenant with them, which is the New

the old and the new, the behavior of god is successive, the New

Testament emphasize that, the god in the New Testament is the same as the god who

appeared in the Old Testament

The consistency of official post between the Old Testament and the New Testament is

o exists. This is a complex idea which requires more explanation. In the 16th century,

people often speak of

important medium to stress the continuity of the old testament and the New Testament.

We know that three main offices in the Old Testament is prophet, priest and king.

Priest Jesus' identity and meaning can be summed up in these three office word. As to

the identity of the prophet Jesus level, it refers to his teaching and the miraculous

signs; Jesus' identity refers to the priest, it refers to that he was crucified for human

SINS on the cross, after the resurrection he continue to pray for his people; The king

identity refers to the resurrection of Jesus Christ's rule in their subjects. These three

categories are regarded by Protestants as a convenient summary.

Calvin thinks the New Testament and the Old Testament has fundamental similarity

and continuity. First of all, he stressed that the will of god's eternal immutability.

What God did in the Old Testament and in the New Testament is not totally different.

In the age of two, the behavior and intention of god must have the basic continuity.

Second, the Old Testament and the New Testament are both declared and praised the

god's grace which revealed by Jesus Christ. The Old Testament

Christ from a distance, darkly 'testimony. However, the witness is true indeed. Third,

the two covenant have the same

grace. So Calvin thinks that the Old Testament and the New Testament is consistent,

there is no fundamental discontinuity in the nature of the content. In god's salvation

plan, while the Old Testament and the New Testament occupy a different place in the

time order, of both the content is completely consistent in the correct understanding.

3. The different between the Old Testament and the New Testament

There are many differences between the Old Testament and the New Testament, now

we just talk something important.

Firstly, obviously the Old Testament and the New Testament take different treatment

methods in the way of comparisons. Calvin thinks that the Old

Testament’s

comparison is the token of realism. According to different comparison in language

and image in visual, the Old Testament could make people meet truth indirectly.

While in the New Testament, people could check truth directly. The Old Testament

just is the shadow not truth itself. However, the New Testament directly presents truth.

Second, the differences between the two testament is the torah and gospel, or to say
