Is Jesus part of the Old or New Testament?
Jesus is referenced in the Old Testament in prophetic terms, or in other words, the Old Testament predicts his coming to earth. In addition, it has been suggested that Jesus is part of the "we" or "us" that God refers to himself as throughout the Old Testament, as if Jesus existed with God prior to his physical form. However, the Old Testament does not explicitly address this - it is merely implied. The New Testament records the actual birth of Christ, his life, and his death. Specifically, the gospels (the first four books of the New Testament) - Matthew, Mark, Luke and John - speak mainly on the life and teachings of Christ, while other books are based on his teachings, or comprised completely of his teachings.
Why does the New Testament have words in red?
because the words represent what Jesus said. he wasn't around in the old testament
What were the first words of Jesus in the Bible?
That depends on whether you believe that Jesus appeared in the Old Testament or not. If you do, Jesus first recorded words are "Let there be light." If you do not believe in Jesus in Old Testament, His first recorded words were in Luke 2:49, " Why are you looking for me? Don't you know I must do my Father's will."
What is the most mentioned name in the old testament?
God, is what i suggest! As Jesus in mentioned in the new testament instead of the old! hope i helped!Actually Jesus is mentioned many times in the old testament, the problem is Jesus is the greek name used for the hebrew name Joshua. Also Christ is mentioned many times in the old testament too, as Christ is the greek word used for the hebrew word Messiah.Remember none of the bible was written in English (or Latin). The old testament was written in a mixture of hebrew, chaldean (babylonian), and aramaic; while the new testament was written in common greek. Words from each of these languages are typically transliterated to english rather than translated, sometimes resulting in 2 or more english words for the same thing depending on the part of the bible the words appear in.For what it is worth, the Joshua for whom a book in the bible is named is considered in jewish tradition to be a Messiah; so in greek he could justifiably be referred to as Jesus Christ!
How many times do the words 'in Christ' appear in the epistles?
In the King James version, the New Testament epistles contain the words "in Christ" eighty-three times.
