Can We Read the Old Testament Like Jesus and the Apostles? (Ep 242)
<p>When Jesus and the apostles quoted the Old Testament, did they preserve its original meaning or give it a new one? Furthermore, can we as Christians use the examples of Jesus and the Apostles to model our own reading of the Bible? In this episode, Peter Goeman examines what Jesus and Paul expected people to understand from Scripture. He surveys seven approaches to the New Testament’s use of the Old Testament and seven common ways New Testament writers use earlier texts. </p><p><br></p><p>Time Stamps</p><ul><li>0:00 How did Jesus and the apostles read the Old Testament?</li><li>5:27 Does new revelation change an earlier text’s meaning?</li><li>7:33 Jesus expects people to understand Scripture</li><li>14:23 Paul and the Bereans examine the Scriptures</li><li>20:24 Seven approaches to the New Testament’s use of the Old Testament</li><li>39:09 Three observations to keep in mind</li><li>45:49 Seven common ways the New Testament uses the Old Testament</li><li>1:08:03 Why the interpretive method matters</li></ul><p>If you have found the podcast helpful, consider <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-bible-sojourner-podcast/id1263283818">leaving a review on Itunes</a> or <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7u6QMwzt2iFxRKdVNFvchw?si=5cc3b1d7230b4b4a">rating it on Spotify</a>.
