Yeah, no shit. It's sort of what happens when a people's holy scripture is co-opted and reinterpreted by others.
Apparently we're going to overlook the fact the the earliest Christians were practicing Jews.
Nothing was reinterpreted, I have the exact same scriptures Jewish people have. The difference is that they still observe Old Testament law and reject Christ as the Messiah.
As it states clearly in the Old Testament:
Jeremiah 31:31-33
Quote:Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD: But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
