A helpful outline that sheds some light on part of the Old Testament can be found HERE

We need to understand the Old Testament simply because we
don’t. There is a system of theology teaching that certain portions of
the Bible are relevant only for a particular time and, therefore, we
don’t have to be concerned with that portion of Scripture. That is
simply not true. The Bible is a reflection of the God of the universe
and, as such, should be studied as a whole.
