The Old has been 'out longer'.
**The Hebrew Scriptures (OLD Testament) was written between 1513BCE and around 440 BCE (400 years before Jesus was born on the earth)
**The Greek Scriptures (NEW Testament) was written between 41CE and 98 CE, (more than 60 years AFTER Jesus died).

Because the Old Testament hasn't been deleted. We still use the Old Testsament, after all it has a lot of value in it and it is God's Word. Jesus also speaks from the Old Testament. The New Testament begins a new covenant, two new commandments and how we are able to return to God.

How is Judaism similar to Christianity?
The Christian bible has two parts: The old testament and the new testament. Christians believe that when Jesus came and died for our sins, he said that the old testament did not matter any longer. Judaism does not believe in Jesus, so they do not have the new testament. They follow the original old testament, which as I stated, is also in the Christian bible.
Why do Jews find the term Old Testament offensive?
A Jewish person would consider it offensive because it could insinuate that that the Torah is no longer valid, having been replaced by something new (New Testament). Usually, Jews do not find the term Old Testament offensive, just inapt. The Old Testament is different from the Jewish Bible or Tanakh in that it has additional books, a different order to the books, different translations of key words (usually in support of Christology) and additional material in certain books. As a result, the Jews prefer to say that they read the Tanakh than that they read the Old Testament.
