The Family Economy

In this episode, we explore the Hebrew ordering of the Old Testament, and how this structure can transform the way we read and understand Scripture. Through careful exploration of the Hebrew Bible’s three main sections—the Law, the Prophets, and the Writings, we will examine how these categories point to Jesus as the fulfillment of Scripture. We will also unpack when Jesus referred to the "Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms" (Luke 24:44), and how this arrangement helps us see the Old Testament as one unified narrative leading to Christ.
