About this title

Synopsis

How Christ’s words test the Old Testament against higher criticism

A concise, forceful look at how biblical scholarship views the Old Testament through the lens of Christ’s teaching and the claims of higher criticism. This work argues that Jesus affirmed the historic truth of Scripture and offers a counterpoint to views that dismiss it as legend or myth.

This pamphlet presents a clear, point‑by‑point case: Christ’s relationship to the law, the writings of Moses, and the prophetic expectations. It contrasts those claims with the arguments of critics and highlights how the New Testament characters and events are used to affirm or challenge biblical history.

• How Jesus treats the books of Moses as trustworthy and foundational
• What the text says about the authority and reliability of Scripture
• Key scriptural references used to support these conclusions
• A discussion of higher criticism and its impact on Christian belief

Ideal for readers of biblical history, theological debate, and church study who want a concise examination of how Christ’s teaching interacts with the Old Testament.
