Psalms 119:126
126It is time for the Lord to act,for your law has been broken.
Jeremiah 8:8-9
8 a“How can you say, ‘We are wise,and the law of the Lord is with us’?
But behold, the lying pen of the scribes
has made it into a lie.
9 bThe wise men shall be put to shame;
they shall be dismayed cand taken;
behold, they have rejected the word of the Lord,
so what wisdom is in them?
Matthew 5:17
Christ Came to Fulfill the Law
17 d“Do not think that I have come to abolish ethe Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but fto fulfill them.Matthew 15:6
6he need not honor his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition you have gmade void the word ▼▼Some manuscripts law
of God. Romans 4:14
14 iFor if it is the adherents of the law who are to be the heirs, faith is null and the promise is void.Galatians 2:21
21I do not nullify the grace of God, for jif righteousness ▼▼Or justification
were through the law, lthen Christ died for no purpose. Galatians 3:17-19
17This is what I mean: the law, which came m430 years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as nto make the promise void. 18For if the inheritance comes by the law, it no longer comes by promise; but oGod gave it to Abraham by a promise.19Why then the law? pIt was added because of transgressions, quntil the offspring should come to whom the promise had been made, and it was rput in place through angels sby an intermediary.
