Description

In this lesson, we tackle a verse that is often misinterpreted - Matthew 5:17.

What does Jesus mean when he uses the words "abolish" and "fulfill?"

In this video, we explore Rabbinic writings that also use these words in the context of scripture interpretation. These Rabbinic uses help us shed light on what Jesus is actually saying.
