An agreement that brings about a relationship of commitment between God and his people.
God has His times and seasons. Actually there were a few Gentiles that received salvation in the Old Testament. Rahab in the Book of Joshua was one and Ruth in the Book of Ruth was another. There were more, but this was the exception to the rule. During Jesus' time on earth more Gentiles are mentioned and then finally when the Jewish people rejected Jesus as the Messiah it was time for the Gentile to be accepted by God on a different basis, although Salvation has always come by faith in God, God created a time when mostly Gentiles could come to Him freely and in great numbers. Salvation to the Gentiles was mentioned in the Old Testament a number of times, but the timing was God's.
In the Old Testament, Gentiles were seen as outsiders to God's covenant with the Israelites. However, there are instances where Gentiles showed faith and were included in God's plan, such as with Ruth and Rahab. Overall, the Old Testament emphasizes God's desire for all nations to come to know and worship Him.
In the King James version, the word pair "but God" appears nineteen times in the Old Testament.
The division of the old testament and the new Testament is because the new testament comes a new covenant that allows the gentiles to become God's people and children of Abraham. The new covenant is about delivering God's word to people other than the Israelites and to reestablish His kingdom on Earth because we had parted so far from his word and had become traditionalist instead of truly following what God wanted.
The Hebrew people
While direct communication from God to individuals may not be as prevalent in the New Testament as in the Old Testament, it is believed that God continues to communicate with people through scripture, prayer, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The New Testament emphasizes a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ as a way for believers to access God's guidance and wisdom.
