Abstract
Two points particularly hold the Author’s attention: the fundamental perspective of the Christian reading of the Old Testament and the relation of the Christians to the Jewish people in the context of the New Testament writings. The Author analizes the recent document of the Pontifical Biblical Commission with its important foreword by Card. J. Ratzinger, which underlines the specifics of the Christian reading of the Old Testament. The first part presents the Holy Scriptures of the Jewish people as being a fundamental part of the Christian Bible; the second part is devoted to the study of NT topics in OT texts; the third part is concerned with the theme of the Jews in the New Testament. On this subject the Author discusses ancient and modern translations of a famous text of the first epistle of Paul to Thessalonicians (2,14-16)
