Once again, please no Ad Homs. But let’s’ still have a lively discussion.

Again, as before, I will refrain from commenting.

Well, let me give you the opinion of the ignorant and of course myself:

The New Testament was inspired by Jesus. So by God by proxy. Each book is a ‘Testament’ or witnessed accounting of the words and deeds of Jesus. Except the Book of Revelations. Which is prophetic and a piece of work unto itself imho.

Old Testament — The Israelite Covenant with God. Particularly the first 5 books from Moses. The age of the Bull.

New Testament — The New Covenant Jews and Gentiles alike, the age of the Fish.

Book of Revelations — The destruction, remaking and ascension of the world. — The age of Aquarius.

I only include the astrological notation as a curiosity, it’s interesting that pre-Christ, there were many bull gods and idols that competed with the Jewish faith, and that the Christian sign of the fish is a result of the coming of Jesus.
