Mosaic Law and Now Messiah’s Law
Over time we see a giving of the Law to Moses, but later a new approach arrives! Read the following and when you have time view the lessons linked below!
So many people say they read their Bible (be it Hebrew only or Hebrew plus the Greek text) and they might think the Law given to Moses by the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is intended to remain in full application today. But after Moses, something happened to modify that application—a new look by way of a new covenant and the vital Promise offered by Messiah Himself! This is not to say the Mosaic Law is to be regarded without respect—we learn much from a reading of the books of Moses. But when the Jewish Messiah appeared, He stated something that makes for a shift and an emphasis direct from Adonai through the words of Messiah!
If you are a Jewish person, you might want to hear about how the Gentiles today need to approach the Bible’s teachings on the Law. This also puts a new light on an updated Jewish approach. But this also takes respecting the Messiah Yeshua and if you are not certain who the Messiah really is the please visit this Harmony page at WindowView! The links below lead to YouTube videos of an excellent Jewish (Messianic) teacher who addresses the content of the book of Galatians.
If you are a Gentile and a churchgoer, maybe you need to hear Mottel Baleston’s teaching on Galatians because this will inform you how you are to regard the Mosaic Law and what Messiah says about Gentiles not being under the Law. Most importantly, what are we ALL (Jew and Gentile together) to do with respect to what Yeshua has stated and is recorded in the Greek books (The New Covenant).
The six sessions with detailed teachings (each session is in two parts) are all captured on YouTube videos and the links are listed below.
Also, links to a couple books that are helpful in addressing the Law (then and now) are presented below.

A shorter but very helpful book is written by Michael J. Vlach. This book examines a specific text from the New Covenant and addresses The New Covenant Lawgiver!
Another longer and bit broader look at Scripture is written by John B. Metzger, entitled THE LAW Then And Now: What About Grace?
We are apparently entering a final era of time in human history when taking a look at a vital choice we all have (an exceptional opportunity) to make is available only while alive!
