The point is to show you—expose you to—how the New Testament is informed by the Old. It’s not always a simple quotation of the Old Testament. Sometimes, there’s an entire backdrop. There’s an entire set of worldview elements or practice that get repurposed in the New Testament. For example, the Gospel writers dip into the Israelite kingship accession process intentionally to portray Jesus as passing through the series of stages that legitimize kingly rule. And knowing that helps us get more out of the Gospel presentations of Jesus’ life. Check it out!

    Wow! At the moment I heard Dr. Heiser say "The crucifixion was His coronation" -- I felt a wave of joy, reverence, and awe sweep through my body. To put it in this way shook my innermost being with emotion and gave me a new awareness. How upside down was his kingdom! How he triumphed over the rulers and powers in it!

    How amazing is the Providence of God that God would fool the god of this world and humiliate him by allowing him to think that he was defeating the king when in fact the god of this world was inaugurating the king and ushering in the death of sin and his own demise.

    They thought they were mocking God, When God was making a total mockery and crushing defeat of all worldly and even demonic power structures including death and hell itself. God's mastery is truly mind blowing
