Of the many reasons one should study the Old Testament, some include; discovering who God is according to how He has chosen to reveal Himself through His history with His creation, getting to know God’s character based on how He related to His chosen people, and through the former two, learning how God relates to us today as His chosen people in the midst of a dark world as we strive to overcome our fallen natures. And of course, perhaps the biggest need for studying the Old Testament is to get to know who the Messiah is and why we need Him.
