During Jesus' sermon when he spoke about fulfilling the law, He specifically made reference to murder, adultery, lying, and loving your enemy.
Fulfilling the law means He demonstrated God's law by His example as a human being, and He taught us its deeper underlying principles. There was a big problem with legalism and blind obedience at the time, and Jesus emphasized on the spirit of the law.
Thank you, I appreciate the answer, but then what was the Leviticus law were they included in what Jesus would call the Law at all ?
No probs!
In those times, when they said "The Law of the Prophet" they were specifically referring to the 10 commandments.
Personally I don't even know what Leviticus law is.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
