The Old Ten in the New Covenant is an examination of the Ten Commandments in the Old and New Testaments. God's moral values, whether expressed in the Old or New Testament, are applicable to believers in every age.
Each chapter begins with a fresh translation of one of the Ten commandments and discussion of that translation per a literal understanding of the Hebrew text. The commandment is then briefly examined within its historical-cultural context. The recurrence and use of the commandment is discussed in both Old and New Testaments. The application of the commandment to New Testament times concludes each chapter. Three appendices provide related material.
Over the past several decades teaching in local churches, and interacting on social media, the Author has repeatedly encountered a popular and unbiblical doctrine: the Christian can safely ignore the Old Testament Law and focus only on the "Law of Christ." They have been taught that most, if not all, of God's commandments in the Old Testament are not for the Christian. The average Christian does not understand the Law of Christ contains God's moral values from the Old Testament repeated in the New Testament, including nine of the Ten Commandments. This book carefully examines that proposition through a discussion of the old Ten in the New Covenant.
