THE OLD TESTAMENT


• CREATION – man is the pinnacle, and is unique because it is the only creature
with free will

• FALL OF MAN – sin (protoevangelium – promise of a saviour)

• ABRAHAM

• ISAAC

• JACOB (renamed “Israel”) and ESAU

• MOSES – The Ten Commandments and introduction of the Promised Land


(Canaan)

• JOSHUA – took over for Moses and led the fall of Jericho

• JUDGES – helped defend people from their enemies (e.x. Samson and Delilah,
Deborah, Gideon)

• KINGS

• PROPHETS – told people to repent for the coming of the Messiah

Through the Bible, we will see the covenant relationship of God with man.

Revelation is in stages:

1. Creation

2. Scripture

3. Words and deeds

4. Jesus Christ

5. Church and the Sacraments


“The New Testament lies hidden in the old, and the Old Testament
is unveiled in the New”
