Vos is essential. Of course we use the NT to understand the old. We use scripture to interpret scripture. That is a fundamental axiom of protestant biblical interpretation. We don't interpret the OT like someone who has never heard of Christ.

As Augustine said, the OT is the NT concealed and the NT is the OT revealed.
