The Old Testament is basically a foreshadowing of the New Testament. Thus a lot of stuff, like promises and prophecy can be found in the Old Testament and be fulfilled or manifested in the New. From the beginning of the Bible, the appearance of Jesus on earth was prophesied and spoken of as the coming of the Messiah. So it's not strange to find Old Testament verses reflected or referenced in the New Testament. Jesus did it Himself when He stood up in His hometown of Nazareth to read from the scroll of Isaiah 61 ( Luke 4:21) So, it's very important that believers know that to understand the New Testament, a good knowledge of the Old Testament is also necessary. Much LOVE!
