I would say Matthew. Matthew was written specifically for Jews, who believe in the Old Testament.Answer:The book of Revelation contains the most references to verses in the Hebrew Scriptures (the 'Old Testament'). Messiah ('Jesus') most often quoted verses in the books of Deuteronomy, Psalms, and Isaiah. Every writer in the Messianic Scriptures (the 'New Testament') made reference to verses in the 'Old Testament.'
New testament
Paul wrote roughly half of the New Testament, which directly quotes the Old Testament 250 times, and if you count partial quotes, it is over 1000. So about half of 250 is 125, and half of 1000 is 500. So roughly, give or take a hundred or more, he directly quotes the old testament 125 times, and overall he quotes or references the old testament 500 times(that includes the 125). I know this isn't scientific, but it's better than nothing.
It is the first book in the New Testament.

No, Matthew is not an Old Testament prophet. He is one of the twelve apostles chosen by Jesus in the New Testament. He is also the author of the Gospel of Matthew, which is the first book of the New Testament.

The special emphasis of Matthew is that Jesus is the Messiah foretold by the Old Testament prophets. He quotes from and refers to the Old testament more often than any other New Testament author and seems to have had particularly Jewish readers in mind. This gospel does not name its author, but it has been accepted as the word of Matthew ever since the early church fathers, beginning with Papias, who was a student of the apostle John.
