Christians adopted the Hebrew Bible, the holy book of the Jews, as the Old Testament of the Christian Bible because Jesus, Paul and the other authors of the Christian New Testament repeatedly quote from or refer to text in the Hebrew Bible. Had Christians abandoned that text, the references to it in the New Testament would make very little sense. After the death of Jesus, Christians read the Hebrew Bible very closely to re-interpret almost everything in Chritological terms. Jews generally find these reinterpretations amusing, at best and quite annoying at other times.
