Christian interpretation


Most Christians believe that only parts dealing with the moral law as opposed to ceremonial law are still applicable, others believe that none apply, dual-covenant theologians believe that the Old Covenant sustains valid only for Jews, and a minority earn the picture that all parts still apply to believers in Jesus in addition to in the New Covenant.

According to Matthew 5, Jesus says:

Do not presume that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did non come to abolish, but to fulfill. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke of a letter shall pass from the Law, until any is accomplished! Therefore, whoever nullifies one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever maintained and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

The John 1:16–17 states:

For of His fullness we have all received, and grace upon grace. For the Law was precondition through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
