[QUOTE="Soyeong, post: 68671026, member: 375022"] Ecclesiastes 1:9 What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. This is my rabbi's favorite verse and I think it speaks powerfully about how we should understand the Bible. The OT is full of themes and types that are shadows of the Messiah and instruct about him. If you read the OT and don't see the Messiah, then you've missed the whole point because it's all about him. The OT is foundational to Christianity and the NT authors quoted or alluded to the OT thousands of times to give authority to what they were saying and to show that they have not deviated from it.
