As Moses received God’s law on Mount Sinai, Jesus as the second Moses here delivers the law on a mountain. Overall, Jesus clarifies the meaning of the OT law and intensifies its application. First Jesus declares the principle that he himself is the fulfillment of the law (vv. 17–19). Then, in a preview of the rest of his remarks on the law, Jesus states that his followers must apply the law much more fully than the Pharisees do (v. 20). With this principle as the foundation, Jesus then applies the principle of exceeding the righteousness of the Pharisees in the areas of murder and anger (vv. 21–26), lust (vv. 27–30), divorce (vv. 31–32), oaths (vv. 33–37), retaliation (vv. 38–42), and relating to enemies (vv. 43–48). The rhetorical pattern revolves around “you have heard that it was said . . . but I say to you . . .” In each case, Jesus extends true obedience beyond an external or legalistic level to a spiritual principle, in effect contrasting the letter of the law as it was conventionally understood and the spirit of the law as God intended it. The last verse summarizes the thrust of what Jesus demands: “You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect” (v. 48).”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Crossway" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/crossway/jesus-interpretation-of-the-ot-law-as-the-promised-messiah-who-is-in/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/052/crossway-14085_heavenly-father_jesus-interpretation-of-the-ot-law-as-th_1097476.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/052/crossway-14085_heavenly-father_jesus-interpretation-of-the-ot-law-as-th_1097476.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/052/crossway-14085_heavenly-father_jesus-interpretation-of-the-ot-law-as-th_1097476.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Jesus’ interpretation of the OT law As the promised Messiah who is in the process of inaugurating a…” — Crossway", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 32, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“Who considers the power of your anger,         and your wrath according to the fear of you?”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Crossway" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/crossway/who-considers-the-power-of-your-anger-and-your-wrath-according-to-the/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/1f3/crossway-14085_anger_who-considers-the-power-of-your-anger-an_1115888.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/1f3/crossway-14085_anger_who-considers-the-power-of-your-anger-an_1115888.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/1f3/crossway-14085_anger_who-considers-the-power-of-your-anger-an_1115888.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Who considers the power of your anger, and your wrath according to the fear of you?” — Crossway", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 33, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Crossway" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/crossway/to-him-who-loves-us-and-has-freed-us-from-our-sins-by-his-blood/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/764/crossway-14085_freed_to-him-who-loves-us-and-has-freed-us-fro_90446.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/764/crossway-14085_freed_to-him-who-loves-us-and-has-freed-us-fro_90446.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/764/crossway-14085_freed_to-him-who-loves-us-and-has-freed-us-fro_90446.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood” — Crossway", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 34, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“You are not your own, 20for you were bought with a price.
