Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The earliest Christians, including Jesus himself, were Jews and they used the Hebrew Scriptures (also known as the Old Testament) to explain Jesus' messiahship. They saw Jesus as the fulfillment of prophesies found in the Hebrew Scriptures, such as Isaiah 53 and Psalm 22. The Talmud and the Antiquities of the Jews were written after the time of Jesus and were not used by the earliest Christians to explain his messiahship. The New Testament, although it contains important information about Jesus, was not yet written during the time of the earliest Christians.
