As a professor of Hebrew, Crawford Howell Toy saw New Testament quotations of the Old as a link between the Israelites and Christianity. In this volume he records how they answer the questions of how Christianity grew out of the Jewish tradition. He states that “There is almost no line of thought in the [Old Testament] whether theological, ceremonial, or ethical, that is not appropriated by the [New Testament], and somehow woven into its own fabric of thought.”
