The Old Testament.
Abraham is first mentioned in the Old Testament.
The major sources used by the author of Matthew's Gospel were Mark's Gospel and the 'Q' Document. However, it is well known that, more than any other gospel author, Matthew made use of the Old Testament, although not just the Torah (Pentateuch). In some cases, Matthew showed Jesus as fulfilling prophecies of the Old Testament, while in other cases, he used parallels. There are several instances where Matthew parallelled the Hebrew scriptures in describing events in the life of Jesus. For example, Matthew said that Joseph's father was Jacob (whereas Luke said that his father was Heli), just as in the Old Testament, Joseph's father was called Jacob; and the infancy narrative, with its flight and return from Egypt, parallels the story of Moses in several ways.
Jonah is from the Old Testament.
The book of Job can be found in the Old Testament.
Jesus was in the new testament and not the old testament.
No, they would have lived in entirely different periods, centuries apart. However the author of Matthew's Gospel drew clear parallels between them, even assigning the name Jacob to the father of Joseph, husband of Mary, in line with the Old Testament Joseph (Joseph's father was called Heli in Luke's Gospel). These parallels are no doubt the cause of some confusion in modern times.
