Here is what he means
Both Israel and Jesus were called out of Egypt
Deuteronomy 6:21 then you are to tell him, “We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, but the LORD brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand
Matthew 2:15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son
Both Israel and Jesus were tempted in the wilderness
Deuteronomy 8:2 Remember that these forty years the LORD your God led you all the way in the wilderness, so that He might humble you and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep His commandments.
Matthew 4:1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
Where Israel failed the test of manna and grumbled, Jesus fulfilled
Deuteronomy 8:3 And he humbled you and let you hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know, nor did your fathers know,
that he might make you know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord
Matthew 4:3-4 And the tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread.” But he answered, “
It is written,“‘Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
Where Israel failed and put God to the test, Jesus fulfilled
Deuteronomy 6:16
You shall not put the Lord your God to the test, as you tested him at Massah
Matthew 4:5-7 Then the devil took him to the holy city and set him on the pinnacle of the temple
6and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, “‘He will command his angels concerning you,a nd “‘On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.’”Jesus said to him, “Again it is written, ‘
You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’
Where Israel failed and worshipped false gods, Jesus fulfilled
Deuteronmy 6:13
It is the Lord your God you shall fear. Him you shall serve and by his name you shall swear. You shall not go after other gods, the gods of the peoples who are around you—
Matthew 4:8-11 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Be gone, Satan! For it is written, “‘You
shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.’”Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and were ministering to him.
Where Israel failed by the vine, Jesus was the true vine
Jeremiah 2:21-22 Yet I planted you a choice vine, wholly of pure seed. How then have you turned degenerate and become a wild vine?
John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.
Where Israel failed to be a light for the nations, Jesus was that light for the world.
Isaiah 49:6 I will make you as a light for the nations, that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”
John 8:12 Jesus spoke to the people and said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Old covenant Israel was only a shadow of the true Israel, that is Jesus Christ.
