Because the vast majority of Christians believe that the Hebrew scriptures are just as valid as the new testament scriptures. While parts of the old testament scriptures have been overridden by Jesus's death on the cross and the transformation of living under the law to now living under grace, most Christians still believe that the old testament is still part of God's word. In fact, much of the new testament relates back to the old testament, the book of Hebrews in particular. Many Christians look to the old testament to find prophesies fulfilled in the life of Christ especially in the book of Isiah.
