Far from splitting hairs....it is a big deal. You know Hebrews....If the Old Covenant was not faulty there would be not reason for a New Covenant.

How many bad things did Paul say about the Law?

In this case, Christ said Moses made allowances for the hardness of their hearts

My point is...that is not what happened. You said, The law was harsh because of their unbelief and because of the evils they brought with them out of Egypt. I said it was an Old debate lol The Mosaic Law is not a reflection of God's will, God's character, God's morals, it is a reflection of the...

Could you explains this, please? Which law would that be? Exodus 21:23-25 But if there is any further injury, then you shall appoint as a penalty life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise. How does this compare...

The law was harsh because of their unbelief and because of the evils they brought with them out of Egypt. Old debate lol The Mosaic Law is not a reflection of God's will, God's character, God's morals, it is a reflection of the evils of Man. Now that is mystic. You have to be kidding me! You do...

It's not that God's law was wrong. As Jesus said, He made allowances for the hardness of men's hearts. Moses was not suppose to be making allowances for anything! It was God's Law. The Israelites were told it was God's Law. Moses did not say, "Stay right here I am going to go up on the mountain...

And when Christ corrected the eye for an eye Law He did not even give it the respect of calling it a Law just, you have heard it said.

That is easy Matthew 19:8 He said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way.

Not putting God's Law into question, it is all there black and white. It is what it is. Nothing mystic about this, simple English. Looking at the Bible with preconceived notions can lead to false beliefs. The Old Testament was a harsh time and Christ made corrections and we are not under the...

This passage is not just slavery, it includes concubinage. Women, all Hebrew women were property in this time period. And I am going to point out that dating does not occur until the last century and of course you remember the women's suffrage movement and the ERA. We are just coming out of...

Do you think that God commanded people to sell their daughters into slavery? or, did He, knowing the wickedness of man, give them laws regulating what He knew He could not stop them from doing apart from dying immediately to give them the Holy Spirit? Now you are digging yourself a hole! So the...

The spirit of the Mosaic Law? Lets sell our daughters into slavery....That the spirit! No, our wives would not like that and now a days it is called human trafficking...even the godless know better. But in the biblical era, slavery was very common. So would Christ get into the conversion about...

Deuteronomy 24:1-4 KJV When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. And when she is...

Exodus 21:23-25 But if there is any further injury, then you shall appoint as a penalty life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise. How does this compare to Matthew 5:38-39 “You have heard that it was said, ‘An...

1st Samuel 18:27 David took his men with him and went out and killed two hundred Philistines and brought back their foreskins. They counted out the full number to the king so that David might become the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him his daughter Michal in marriage. It looks like King...

While a man is not answerable to his wife, the wife herself is held to the strictest account (Gen. 3:16, 38:24; Ezek. 16:38-40; 23:45-47; Num. 5:12.). In this conception of the wife as property begins that double standard of morality which is the bane of the modern family. Divorce was not...

The number of wives and concubines as well as offspring and property was not only a symbol of social distinction, but more importantly the favor of God. Monogamy, on the other hand, was the badge of poverty. The patriarchs were chiefly polygamists: Gideon had many wives, David increased the...
