Who was the Old Testament primarily directed to?
The Old Testament was directed not quite exclusively, but almost entirely to the nation of Israel. God dealt with His covenant people throughout the Old Testament, with only some exceptions, before the parting of the ways in His program for the human race.
Les explains that everything up through the Old Testament was directed not quite exclusively, but almost to the nation of Israel. He notes there were some exceptions, but God was dealing with His covenant people. This continued until the parting of the ways in God's program for the human race, when He began to deviate from the concept of 'Jew only' and made a tremendous statement to Saul of Tarsus.
