Episode 30https://www.matsati.com

When we study the NT text it is clear the narrative assumes Torah observance but stresses the moral laws. The reason for the stress on morality is because morality seems to be man’s most difficult struggle. We have to note the context in which the NT was written. The people of the NT were familiar with the Tanakh as a normative guideline for keeping the laws of HaShem and how to be an observant Jew. There was basically no need to stress Torah observance in that way. There are many examples from the NT text that prove Yeshua did in fact obey the Torah.
