However, by the time of the New Testament this had changed.

But the point here is that in the eyes of the New Testament, things are not what they seem.

The history books make up around half the total content of the Old Testament.

Believe me, the writers of the New Testament had nothing on us.

They are mentioned six times in four different books of the New Testament.

Their time was spent in careful study of the New Testament.

Also, much of the New Testament was written many years after the events described.

The writer, it will be seen, makes free use of the New Testament.

A copy of the Old Testament is also kept at the place.

Virtually all the books of the Old Testament had by now been written.
