Thank you very much for taking the time and trouble to distill the pertinent points of both Testaments. I now have, at long last, a generalised understanding of the Biblical story.
thank you very much for your excellent summary of OT and NT. may i ask a favor. Along with the OT video there was a good PDF of the outline. may i ask if a PDF could be done for the NT. thank you for your consideration of this. may God bless you
Otis, it's a little bit harder because the OT video spans hundred of years through many generations. Most of the data points on the timeline are people's lifetimes. The NT video basically spans 50 years and only one or two generations. It would basically look like Jesus -> Apostles -> All The World.
The bible is a collection of many people's tales/witnesses of events and there are excluded books (the apocrypha) that tell other tales, some contradicting the events told in the bible, which makes sense because people will tell stories how they perceived them and no technology meant that it took a guy to witness something alone and tell it for no one to fully confirm or deny it ever happened. But I think we can all agree that: - Old testament is about God's relationship with people and keeping them on his path. - New testament is about a messenger trying to bring evervone together under God regardless of race/colour/creed through his actions.
Hi I just recently found you channel and really enjoy it. You are great at neatly summarizing. However the Bible does not say anything about a drummer boy. He comes from a famous Christmas song.
Thanks for the overview: I'm a little confused Mathew 15:24 then Jesus replied, "I have been sent only to the lost sheep of the people of Israel. If jesus himself saying that he came only for jewish people. How can a consul of mere humans decides to change his words. if it's word of God why this contradiction? If John is claiming Jesus as the god of Israel the same God who sent the other prophets before Jesus then how do we konw that it wasn't the same god every time coming in human form as prophet? what is the significance of coming to earth at that specific time in history? Is there any witness to Paul's visions of Jesus encounter? Despite these questions i think you did a great job
There is not. The OT timeline covered centuries and the PDF only indicated roughly when people lived, and books were written. Pretty much the entire NT occured in one generation, so an attempt at a timeline PDF would be very different. It would basically look like this: Jesus - Apostles - Revelation
Thank you for this quick overview of the Bible I'm an atheist but i try to study religion and why cultures developed their respective religions and how they came to be in the end no one really knows if god is real or not since there's not enough proof in any religion i can think of i personaly believe that religion was a combination of various ideas of physics and no explanations for a lot of natural things also people lived in fear so they needed an idea to protect them and make them feel safe but i respect everyone's religion but i can't pick one until i get some sign or proof
Mostly life being busy, and not really expecting my first video to be a big deal. Since making it I got married, had 2 kids, switched jobs twice. It's been a busy few years. But it seems like there's a hunger for simple, straightforward bible content so I'm planning to make more as I can.
@@BibleSnap ok....but next time use a Concordance to really understand God's word or go to SHEPHERD'S CHAPEL. You missed so much,especially in the old testament. There were two floods to start with and how and what the key of David is acquired. The giaints ,first earth age,space ships seen by EZEKIEL....etc ..so much could (should) of been presented in the 8 minutes. But great job..trying. 👍👌🧐
This sounds like a test every single chosen one is going through! We have all been in the same shoes a Jesus! Yet this has not been seen as a pattern or stoped of the world
Jesus Christ Resurrected and was on earth for 40 days after Resurrection. Then in 40th day Jesus Ascended into heaven and sent His HolySpirit on the 50th day(Day of Pentecost). His HolySpirit is with us forever. He will come back to earth to rule as King of Kings and Lord of Lords and Priest of Priest forever on Earth. When He will come He will judge all , Jews first and then the Gentiles. He will burn the chaff with fire as John the Baptist said. He will baptise the world with fire like once He baptised the world with water in the days of Noah. He is waiting patiently for world to repent . He has given time for world to repent. He has delayed or postponed the firy judgement by staying away from earth. If He stays on earth then He has to judge. He is patiently waiting for world to repent.
Council of Jerusalem was held because Paul was preaching that people are no longer under the law of Moses, So peter and James summoned him to take the Nazarite vow to show everyone that Paul was still under the Jewish law.
Paul and Jesus abolished the Constitution Written in Heaven. Both were God in the flesh. Only God can destroy what He creates and what He created He backslid in destroying His Laws and Commands! I don't know if I should follow Jesus or Paul!
act 2:22 “Fellow Israelites, listen to this: Jesus of Nazareth was a man accredited by God to you by miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you through him, as you yourselves know. it seems the disciples who were full of holy spirit didn't see Jesus as god, but a man accredited by god.
I must remind the Christians that unless they believe in the absolute unity of God, and renounce the belief in the three persons, they are certainly unbelievers in the true God ... The Old Testament and the Qur'an condemn the doctrine of three persons in God; the New Testament does not expressly hold or defend it, but even if it contains hints and traces concerning the Trinity, it is no authority at all, because it was neither seen nor written by Christ himself, nor in the language he spoke, nor did it exist in its present form and contents for - at least - the first two centuries after him---David Benjamin Keldani Former Catholic Teacher
The reason why the ot was given more likes than the nt was because you did not mention anything about the acts of the apostles and how christianity spread, the letters Paul spread
Or could be that the new testament is fifth the size so less people need the chronology. Might also be because there is 2 million less views. Terrible take on your part
actually I change my mind. On a second view, he did make it quite good. I would have like a little more details on acts of apostles, since there were many significant events such as Paul blinding a false prophet, he gets bitten by a snake and doesn't die. A little facts from outside the Bible describing the time and circumstances under which the books were written but even then it is a good video.
After Jesus' Resurrection, the real beginning of the Church started on Pentecost Sunday led by the Apostles which converted the Mediterranean world into Christianity.
Honestly as a non christian I still don’t understand the story. Is the NT just a bunch of letters written by the apostles of Jesus, about jesus’s devinity?
Sort've. The first 4 books (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) are individual accounts of Jesus' life an ministry, the next book (Acts) is an account of the history of the early church. The next 13 books are really just letters that Paul wrote to various people and churches. The book of Hebrews - we don't actually know the author. Then James, 1&2 Peter, 1,2,3John, & Jude were written by them correspondingly, and Last of all Revelation was written by John. I get it, it's a little all over the place. In one sense it's not really a book, it's a collection of documents formed into a book. But in another sense, it is a book because it was uniquely formed and designed to tell us all we need to know God.
Is there a verse in the Bible that clearly states "Jesus is God"? If so, then what about in Jesus' mission in John 17:1 and 3 that He had known to us only one true God, the Father?
Jesus claims Himself to be a full equal to God when He calls Himself the “I AM” and the NT letters tell us He is the creator of all things and was here before anything was ever made. But He is also the Son of God so its a great mystery. All we can do is pray to God for understanding and read our Bible. God bless
@@MrBumpalicious No, only to those who are outside is a mystery. But we, inside the true church--the Church Of Christ (Iglesia Ni Cristo)--fully understand that mystery. It is clearly known to us because we have a true messenger from God.
@@jominksimon9296 Kinda… Yahweh in Hebrew means I Am Who I am. When the Old Testament was translated into Greek (Septuagint) they chose the word Kurios to represent Yahweh. Kurios translates to Lord (or in other contexts “sir”) in English. English translations often try to distinguish the meanings through capitalization (Lord vs LORD) but that can be confusing to folks until they get a bit of the history. In a recent translation (so I hear) John MacAurther is issuing a version of the NASB replacing LORD with Yahweh in the Old Testament citations (there are many OT quotes found in the NT) Seems like that could be a helpful tool, though since the NT primarily quotes from the Septuagint rather than the Hebrew I have to admit, I’m conflicted about this change. 😁
When Aaron brother of Moses ask, who told him to freed the Israelite from the Egypt, Moses, answered, his name was "I am who I am" which is Jesus claim in the new testament, The one who talked to Moses in that burning bush is Jesus himself.
4:27 What is your evidence to assert that it was the standard practice, at the time, for a body to be anointed several days after burial? 5:00 Acts of the Apostles and the gospel of "Luke" were not written by a man named Luke who was a companion to Paul of Tarsus. Those documents are authored anonymously, as are the other canonical gospels. 8:47 The epistles known as Titus, 1 Timothy, and 2 Timothy are pseudepigraphic. They were almost certainly not authored by Paul of Tarsus. 9:08 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, and the Book of Revelation were not written by the disciple known as John. They are authored anonymously. Also, none of the contradictions were addressed, or even mentioned, for that matter. Beyond that, why was the particular version of the Christian bible that this collection of texts came from not brought up? This is only one version of the new testament.
Satan tempts Jesus for 40 days….but Jesus was all ( Bap!) 😂😂😂 And the part ( Jesus peace’s out…) 😂 sorry I’ve had a cold and little sleep and as Biblical as this is ?? Your funny 😂
There's many false religions that are following Apostle Peter and the Old Testament. We are supposed to be following Apostle Paul in the New Testament.
Yes ... and Paul abolished the Dietary Laws and the Sabbath day Heavenly Father created. He who creates, destroys. Therefore, NOT Jesus, was God in the flesh! I agree, we ought to follow Paul! The Catholic faith was built on Paul!
Jesus is a God, because he is the only begotten son of YHWH. Neither Jesus nor any of his followers said anything about this man made invention called the Trinity which was formulated over 3 centuries after the resurrection of our savior & future King of Heaven Jesus Christ by the Catholic Church, which by the 3rd century was tied to political leadership, much as the same way the Pharisees did with the same Roman Empire only centuries before. Jesus made it beyond clear, that God is Greater than all. John 14:28 (New American Standard Bible, the most accurate English version, to the original language, without try to twist stuff to fit this Trinity invention by the corrupt Catholic Church (don't tell me that Priests only started doing inappropriate things to choir boys in the 20th Century), all you have to do is look at pictures of the artifacts in the secret vault in the base of the Vatican. 300 years after the resurrection of Jesus, Peter, Paul, Luke, Matthew & John were all distant memories. To put it into modern perspective: The time gap (325 years) from Jesus's resurrection until the invention of the Trinity, would be the same as the birth of the famous composer Wagner until the present day, and look at how much information has been hidden, disguised & rearranged since then, and we have infinitely better record keeping & information collection now. Now imagine from the time of Jesus's resurrection until 325 AD, and all the lies & corruption you could get away with. Absolute power, corrupts absolutely. Just imagine if you went back, and were able to add up the totality of sins of the Catholic Church, and then ask yourself, is that an entity that could be trusted to give a 100% truthful & accurate representation of Jesus, and the intention of his words. Call me old fashion, but I trust Jesus's original words & his teachings, and he nor any of his disciples, or any of the biblical apostles ever taught it, and humans love to bathe in their sins & lies, it's too easy to lie when you can get away with. Call me naive, but Jesus would never left anything so important up to interpretation & conjecture & church corruption, especially after seeing first hand the Pharisees, who while in bed with Rome, did all those things to Jesus & his disciples. Also Jesus cannot be God, because of the simple fact that God is perfect, and would never have to do anything to prove anything to anyone, if God had to become Jesus & come down from Heaven. Trust the apostles & Jesus and his disciples? Or trust the Catholic Church over 300 years after Jesus died? I am going with the first option.
I appreciate this summary as a non believer . It just reinforces my atheism. The new testament is a story made up to deal with our inability to deal with our mortality. It's not surprising that the Christian faith caught on with all the magic and drama in the story. If Harry Potter had been written back then, there would be millions worshipping him now as the Messiah.
"Teaches the crowds, helps the poor, heals the sick" - Really? Those are considered miracles? It's possible that Jesus lived through the Crucifixion. Also, where did he go afterwards? Any proof?
Please next time when you talk bout Lord give some respect and stop showing images isnt funny! Talk serious about Truth and handle it with some respect.

You sound more like an agnostic. Atheists flat out deny the existence of any deity. Agnostics tend to admit they don’t know one way or another
Was the relationship between Judas and Jesus analogous to the relationship between Lucifer and God?
I like this ! But I have to point out that Saul (namechanging to) Paul was NOT a pharisee, but a Roman who persecuted christians/followers of Jesus.
