One of the most important events in Jesus’ Bible, which also changed Jewish history forever, is the Babylonian exile. Jesus saw himself fulfilling a larger storyline that was told in His Bible, the Hebrew Bible, or as most Christians refer to it, the Old Testament. But these events didn’t occur in a vacuum. It’s the central event which generated the entire Christian story and the New Testament. For followers of Jesus, the story of his life, death, and resurrection is the absolute center of our practice, belief, and worldview.
