Which Old Testament Book Did Jesus Quote Most?

People didn’t follow Jesus only because of his miracles—they also followed him because he knew how to handle the Old Testament:

  • He could match wits with the temple teachers at age 12 (Lk 2:42, 46–47).
  • He resisted the devil’s temptations using passages from Deuteronomy (Mt 4:1–11).
  • He stumped the Pharisees when it came to who the son of David is (Mt 22:41–46).

Jesus is the greatest Old Testament scholar of all time, and it makes me wonder: which books of the Old Testament does Jesus quote most often in the Gospels?

  • Exodus: 7
  • Isaiah: 8
  • Deuteronomy: 10
  • Psalms: 11
