You clearly do not understand this as the above doesn't make one iota of sense. What Jesus is rather clearly saying is that what we call the "law of love", which is the basis of the verses I quoted, is the entire law in and of itself. The other verses I provided you a couple of days ago that deals with Jewish Law that includes the Shabbat laws coming to an end, thus replaced by the "law of love". This is why we don't keep kosher or abide by the 613 Laws in Torah.
Jesus went on to say that the basis of the law for us is to "love one another as I have loved you", which is why the other laws, such as keeping kosher and being circumcised, were gradually abandoned. This is pretty basic to even an elementary understanding of where the Gospel was and is coming from and why.
IOW, Jewish Law, which includes the Sabbath Laws, was and is for Jews-- not Gentiles.
Makes perfect sense if you read what JESUS says. Jesus is quoting from Old testament scriptures of Deuteronomy 6:5 and Leviticus 19:18. You having some Jewish background brother should know this should you not?
MATTHEW 22:36-40 [36], Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
[37], Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.[38], This is the first and great commandment. [39], And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. [40],
ON THESE TWO COMMANDMENTS HANG ALL THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS.
Let's get clearer...
MATTHEW 19:16-21
[16], And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? [17], And he said unto him, Why call thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: BUT IF YOU WILL ENTER INTO LIFE KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS. [18], He saith unto him, WHICH? JESUS SAID, THOU SHALT NOT MURDER, THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, THOU SHALT NOT STEAL, THOU SHALT NOT LIE, HONOR YOU MOTHER AND FATHER AND THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF [20], The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet? [21], Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
Jesus showed him that he may have fulfilled His duty of love to his neighbor but not to God breaking commandment 1 and 2 loving riches more than God
Well Jesus makes it very clear that what he is talking about it is the 10 commandments of God's Law.
What about James...
JAMES 2:8-12
[8], If ye fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF, ye do well:
[9], But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.
[10], FOR WHOSOEVER SHALL KEEP THE WHOLE LAW AND YET OFFEND IN ONE POINT, HE SHALL BE GUILTY OF ALL.
[11], FOR HE THAT SAID, DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY SAID ALSO DO NOT KILL. NOW IF YOU DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY AND YOU KILL, YOU HAVE BECOME A TRANSGRESSOR OF GOD'S LAW.
[12], So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.
Well James makes it very clear what he is talking about when he talks about the Royal Law of love. He is talking about the 10 commandments. So Jesus and James both agree that they are talking about God's 10 commandments which also include the 4th commandment which is one of the ten.
What about Paul?
ROMANS 13:8-10
[8], Owe no man anything, but to LOVE ONE ANOTHER: for HE THAT LOVES ANOTHER HAS FULFILLED THE LAW.
[9], For this, THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, THOU SHALT NOT KILL, THOU SHALT NOT STEAL, THOU SHALT NOT LIE, THOU SHALT NOT COVET; and IF THERE SHALL BE ANY OTHER COMMANDMENT, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, THOU SHALT LOVE THY NEIGHBOR AS THYSELF.
[10], Love works no ill to his neighbor: therefore LOVE IS THE FULFILLING OF THE LAW.
Paul makes it very clear what he is talking about as well when he is talking about God's Law. It seems like Jesus, James and Paul all agree together what it is they are referring to when talking about God's Law. They are all referring to God's 10 commandments which includes the 4th commandment which is one of the ten (Exodus 20:1-17)
So now that God's Word shows us what it is referring to. No need to guess, what we are talking about, God’s Law of Love is God's 10 commandments. God's love is expressed through obedience to Gods law through a new heart to love, not outside it it. That is why JESUS says "IF you love me keep my commandments.
On there two commandments of love to God and man hang all the law and the prophets.
You are in error. There was
no Jew;
no Israel,
no Moses and
no Sin when the sabbath was made for mankind *Mark 2:27; Genesis 2:1-3
