- Religion & Spirituality
Why did God give the Mosaic Law (beginning with the Ten Commandments) to Israel? There were some very important reasons given in this study. What exactly does it mean that Christ brought an end to the Mosaic Law? What is "the law of Christ"? Was there law before "The Law"? Does being free from "The Law" mean a Christian is lawless?
Did you know Exodus chapters 21 to 23 are full of "case laws" about all manner of subjects, such as the treatment of servants and their rights, about murder and non-lethal violence, about harming pregnant women, about sorcery, sexual perversions, idolatry, false religious practices; restitution, property rights, usury, speaking ill of judges and rulers, giving false testimony, mob rule, partiality, mistreatment of foreigners, widows, and orphans - to name a few.
Don't judge this study by its title; it is packed with good stuff.
