Yeah I know, it’s an old joke. But right now in the Read the Bible series we are in Exodus 27 and Moses is in the process of receiving the Law as well as instructions for building the tabernacle and everything associated with it. Do Christians need to keep the law and the feasts and do everything in the Old Testament? No. Do Christians need to read the Old Testament? Absolutely, it should be considered a must. You can learn a lot about God reading the Old Testament. Jesus quoted the Old Testament directly nearly 80 times and some scholars believe there are as many as 300 references or allusions. Not everything in the Old Testament points to Jesus but certainly everything about the tabernacle, animal sacrifice, priests, High Priest and entering the Most Holy Place are about Jesus. They help us understand who he is and what he does.
