Allow me to refer you to the New Testament epistle to the Hebrews. It addresses this very question, especially chapters 7-9.
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.
The covenant with Moses is already made and most religions hold that you cannot intercede with the Dead for a new covenant.
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.
No. Jesus is the New Testament Moses is the Old Testament
Jesus
Jesus' death opened a new covenant with God.
No he did not , Jesus died in the New testament time . Moses was in the Egyptian era and Jesus was in the Roman era.
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.
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.
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. It was wrote primarily to explain that very thing, and how the new covenant that replaces the old is a better permanant one that replaces a temporary one that was a foreshadow of the new one that was to come. Notice in your reading of Hebrews the key words of : better, and, covenant. It will all be spelled out to you.
Yes, and the covenant is in his blood, as the Scripture says in Hebrews 12 -".22 But ye are come -------- 24. to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than [that of] Abel.
The promise of the New Covenant has been given to the remnant of the Jewish nation. For all intents and purposes the New Covenant has been received by the believers in Jesus Christ.
