NT205-2: The Use of the OT in the NT — Acts 8-28

Discover how Luke and Paul trace the expansion of the early Church in Acts 8–28 not as a break from Old Testament Judaism, but as the multi-ethnic, redemptive-historical fulfillment of God's covenantal promises to Israel and the nations.In this episode, we examine Acts 8–28 using the Beale & Carson framework (featuring I. Howard Marshall), exploring the Isaianic New Exodus, Davidic enthronement through the resurrection, apostolic Gentile inclusion without proselytization, and practical insights for scholarly and pastoral biblical interpretation.FEATURED LITERATURE & SOURCES:- Primary Reference: G.
