The New And The Old

You have heard it said that in terms of the two testaments, "the new is in the old concealed and the old is in the new revealed." But I say to you, the new does not reveal the old and neither is the old concealed, rather, the new is an extension of the old, reaching in a new direction. It has its foundation in the old, and apart from the old cannot be understood, yet nevertheless has replaced it.
