(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) Did you know that the Old Testament doesn't actually begin in the book of Genesis, nor does the New Testament begin in the book of Matthew? Now these are purposely placed there as a reference point to help us locate books of the Bible. However, the Old Testament, also known as the Old Covenant, actually began at Mount Sinai when Moses had read every precept to all the people according to the law. He then sprinkled the blood on the book and all the people, saying this is the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. The Old Testament was then in full effect until its conclusion at the death of Jesus Christ which became the outset of the New Testament according to Hebrews 9 verse 16-18. And this is why we see Jesus and his disciples practicing ceremonial laws throughout the gospels. Full sermon in the description.
