Scholars often call Deuteronomy the “Romans of the Old Testament” because of its foundational teachings on ethics, law, and grace. In this class, we will first explore how New Testament authors understood Deuteronomy—and the law as a whole—under the New Covenant. Then, we will turn our attention to understanding how Deuteronomy can help shape our worldview by studying the historical context, literary design, and wisdom of the book.
In this lesson, we explore the biblical concept of testing by examining how Jesus used the wisdom of Deuteronomy to overcome Satan’s temptations in the wilderness. Join us as we learn how to rely on these scriptural examples to navigate our own periods of hardship and cultivate a purer faith.
