All the Old Testament is basically a foretelling of something that is coming that is far greater than what they had. The prophets longed for where we are now, they saw it spiritually and were undone.

….Until finally, the voice of one crying in the wilderness. Repent confess sin, abandon the old life, die in the symbolic waters of baptism, then press into the kingdom of a Jesus Christ with great intensity, and join the new creation.

What Jesus did and is doing is not new and better religion, it is a new humanity, another race, occupying the flesh of the old, a new creation entirely, everything is increasingly different.

Yet the old, very religious humanity is still here, trying to mimic him, to control him, to falsely speak for him. To accidentally kill him off-repeatedly, to shut him down (in their deep confusion).

But it won’t last forever, that old, religious, murderous humanity won’t remain, they are being evicted by force.
