Old Testament: The heart of the Bible

Capture the inspiration of the Scriptures

Many Christians have made a habit of skipping over the Old Testament in favor of the New, however this is an oversight. In his Second Letter to Timothy, the apostle Paul declares that “all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Tim. 3:16).

You might not initially understand how the ritual laws of the Torah are powerful tools for living a righteous life. But as you study these sections of the Bible, you begin to enter the world of ancient Israel, which Jesus and his disciples were a part of. You begin to see how the Hebrew prophets foretold the arrival of the Messiah, hundreds of years before the birth of Jesus. There simply is no better way of capturing the inspirational essence of the Scriptures than by learning to read them in Hebrew! Enroll in our online Biblical Hebrew course today.
