Bits of Torah Truths – Paul Did a Midrash in NT from the Torah on Exodus 32:6 – Episode 91

Exodus 17:6
ו הִנְנִ֣י עֹמֵד֩ לְפָנֶ֨יךָ שָּׁ֥ם׀ עַֽל־הַצּוּר֮ בְּחֹרֵב֒ וְהִכִּ֣יתָ בַצּ֗וּר וְיָצְא֥וּ מִמֶּ֛נּוּ מַ֖יִם וְשָׁתָ֣ה הָעָ֑ם וַיַּ֤עַשׂ כֵּן֙ מֹשֶׁ֔ה לְעֵינֵ֖י זִקְנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃

Exodus 32:6
ו וַיַּשְׁכִּ֙ימוּ֙ מִֽמָּחֳרָ֔ת וַיַּעֲל֣וּ עֹלֹ֔ת וַיַּגִּ֖שׁוּ שְׁלָמִ֑ים וַיֵּ֤שֶׁב הָעָם֙ לֶֽאֱכֹ֣ל וְשָׁת֔וֹ וַיָּקֻ֖מוּ לְצַחֵֽק׃

Here in 1 Corinthians 10:1-22 there is so much content from the Torah, Paul uses Exodus 14,17:6,32:6, and more to create a midrash on the Torah. What this reveals to us is how significant the Torah is in Paul’s teachings and methodology. Paul wrote Torah based midrashim throughout the NT text. This again proves the Torah has not passed away!
