Allow me to refer you to the New Testament epistle to the Hebrews. It addresses this very question, especially chapters 7-9.

Who is a person or event in the Old Testament that foreshadows Jesus in the New Testament?

One significant figure in the Old Testament who foreshadows Jesus is Moses. Like Jesus, Moses was a leader who delivered his people from bondage, representing salvation and liberation. Both figures also mediated a covenant between God and humanity; Moses delivered the Law to the Israelites, while Jesus established a new covenant through his sacrifice. Additionally, just as Moses was a prophet and a shepherd to his people, Jesus is often referred to as the Good Shepherd in the New Testament.

Was the second covenant the old testament or the New Testament?

God made many covenants in the Old Testament, but I assume you are speaking about the "New Covenant" vs the "Old Covenant" which God gave Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai. The "New Covenant" or second was mentioned in the Old Testament several times as a covenant which was yet future. The "New Covenant" started in the New Testament when Jesus Christ died on the cross of Calvary, was buried, and was resurrected the third day. The 'Old Covenant" was by Law and the "New Covenant" was by grace.

Moses is mentioned in the New Testament, primarily in the context of the Law and prophecies. He is referenced in the Gospels, particularly in relation to Jesus' teachings and the fulfillment of the Law. Additionally, Moses is cited in the letters of Paul and the Book of Hebrews to illustrate points about faith and the Old Covenant. However, he does not play a central role in the narratives of the New Testament as he does in the Old Testament.


What is difference between old covenant and new covenant?

As for the old covenant we fell under the Mosiac Law and now for the new covenant we fall under the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Answer To get a fuller understanding of this subject, read the book of Hebrews in the Bible,it might take you an hour.... tops.

Did Jesus convert?

No Jesus did not convert. The Old Testament tells us of a new covenant that God was giving to the Jewish people in "time to come". When Jesus (the Son of God) came to earth in human form that "time had come" Jesus simply instituted the new covenant. It was the Jewish people who failed to recognize the Messiah and follow Him into the new covenant.

What was meant when Jesus instituted the New Covenant at the Last Supper?

If you view the New Covenant as a legal document proposing a law then that law has to take effect from a certain date. Jesus did this when He said at the Last Supper "this cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood." (Luke Ch.22) So the New Covenant came into effect when the cup was poured out at the Last Supper. The new covenant is not a mere renewal of the earlier covenant that the Israelites broke. No, indeed! For the apostle Paul writes to the Christians at Rome, saying: "You are not under law but under undeserved kindness." (Romans 6:14) It is really a new covenant, and it was to be expected that it would be a better one, for the Almighty God Jehovah is able to improve matters with regard to those whom he admits into the new covenant. For one thing, he raised up a better mediator, or go-between, in establishing the new covenant. This Mediator was no imperfect, sin-infected man like the prophet Moses. 8 The Law covenant mediated by means of the prophet Moses was good in itself. However, that covenant provided for the sacrifice of animals whose blood could never wash away human sins. So for Jehovah God to set up a better covenant, there would have to be a better mediator with a better sacrifice. This all-necessary Mediator proved to be Jesus Christ. Pointing out the superiority of this Mediator as compared to the prophet Moses, the Bible gives us the following explanation: "But now Jesus has obtained a more excellent public service, so that he is also the mediator of a correspondingly better covenant, which has been legally established upon better promises. . . . In his saying 'a new covenant' he has made the former one obsolete."-Hebrews 8:6, 13. --Excerpt from "Insight on the Scriptures"
