Old Testament
The Old Testament is important because it sets the stage for the coming of Jesus Christ, who is seen as the fulfillment of the prophecies and promises made in these texts. It also offers wisdom literature and moral guidance that continue to influence ethical and spiritual teachings today. The Old Testament's themes of justice, mercy, faithfulness, and the relationship between God and humanity remain central to both religious traditions.
