| Summary | "The Christian View of the Old Testament" by Frederick Carl Eiselen is a theological treatise written in the early 20th century. This work explores the relationship between the Old Testament and Christian thought, providing an analysis of how the latter interprets and values the former within the context of modern beliefs and scientific advancements. Eiselen aims to reaffirm the significance of the Old Testament in Christian doctrine and practice, asserting its continued relevance despite contemporary challenges. At the start of the book, the author introduces the shifting attitudes towards the Bible in the previous fifty years, noting a departure from unwavering confidence to uncertainty regarding its role in faith. The preface sets the stage for examining the New Testament's perspective on the Old Testament, arguing that early Christians viewed the Old Testament as foundational to their beliefs. Eiselen emphasizes the necessity of understanding the Old Testament's purpose in enriching moral and spiritual development, correlating its teachings with the life and mission of Jesus Christ, thereby underscoring its enduring validity in the Christian faith.
