they do actually. they say thing that are supposed to happen today, and there are still questions that havent been answered yet. If u pray and read then things will make since. the old books are also tring to inform us why things are the way they are today so we wont be mixed up with the things people come up with today. so they are their so that we can stay ona religious path and not stray away. they also help us keep faith.

The languages which the old and New Testaments were written in?
Most of the Old Testament was written in Hebrew, a slight variation of which is still spoken today. Parts of it (notably in the book of Daniel) are written Aramaic. Most of the New Testament is written in Koine Greek (which is not quite like ancient Greek from Homer or Aristotle but is also not like the Greek spoken today in Greece.) Some words in the New Testament are given in Aramaic, like "Talitha koum!" in Mark 5:41. The Aramaic language dates back a long ways and has undergone some changes, particularly because it was a widespread language at one time. However, the primary languages of the Bible are Hebrew and Koine Greek.
