Redemption of Israel and the Gentiles in the Old and New Testaments
When studying Esther's book, the Midianites and Parsis were diplomatic representatives of Ahasuerus' empire, which ruled from India to Cush. The redemption of the Jews during this period took place through Mordecai and Queen Esther. The book of Ruth describes the succession of the empire. The redemption of the nations takes place when Boaz marries Ruth. The empire was all in Asia. Abraham was called by God the Gentile and possessed by circumcision. Jesus Christ disguised himself as a man and united not only the Gentiles but also the people in Christ with the command to be baptized. Before the ascension of heaven was the last commandment.
In the Old Testament, if redemption was a sacrifice and circumcision, then Jesus Christ fulfilled the law of circumcision. The final sacrifice was made on the cross. Elijah, the coming John the Baptist in the order of the Old Testament prophet Koor, broke the law of Moses forever and made the Old Testament one by baptism.
