Free from the Law?

Mark 7, Peter’s vision, Romans 14, the wall that came down, the record nailed to the cross: these verses are often read as proof that believers are free from the law. But free from which law, and what do the verses actually say? This book reads each passage again, in its own setting and in the original words, and lets Scripture decide. Take it on your travels or play the audiobook as you drive.

“For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one iota (smallest Greek letter) or one keraia (stroke of a letter) will pass away from the nomos (law) until all things are accomplished.” — Matthew 5:18

This book opens each of those passages in its own chapter and in its own place, together with the meat market in Corinth, and asks what the text itself says.

• What “food” meant to Yeshua and His hearers, and what Mark 7:19 says in the Greek

• Peter’s vision in Acts 10, and what Peter himself said it meant

• Clean and unclean in the Torah, from the table to the sickbed

• Daniel at the king’s table

• Ephesians 2, Colossians 2, Romans 10:4, and the other verses used to end the law

• Why the Torah was given at all: blessing, curse, and the way home

Every Scripture passage is quoted in full from the Yeshua Literal Version (YLV), with the key Hebrew and Greek words explained in plain English.
