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.
Levitical law would be a better phrase, and you really don't know what it is ?
Where does it say 'The law of the prophet' ?
Do you mean 'The law and the prophets' ?

The mode of communication 2000 years ago was different to what we use today.
To decode the past one must teach oneself to code in the same way. One has to understand things like informational warfare. Sabotage of the code etc.
The greatness of Jesus can actually only be seen when one understands the way humans communicate in a broad sense.
Let's compare it to ant feromone - there is no smell like Jesus, no behaviour like the behaviour of a true believer - and it already lasts over 2000 years.
I mean others smell good too - like Socrates, Confucius etc. but their smell is hidden and has to be looked for. Jesus no matter if You like him or not is just present in the air all the time.
Of course there is no way to grasp the glory of God - it's as if teaching a worm mathematical algorithms - but God is able - if You allow him inside he will teach You those algorithms. With those algorithms one becomes powerful enough to influence reality.
Faith could be translated into trust - if You stick to something long enough it will be woth it. Some subjects need years to achive full mastery. Love (not the romantic one) also needs training, but its like runnning on a completely different fuel. To never fear again, to never be demotivated, to feel this constant hunger for more.

Ultimately - people react to religious writings like somebody who saw morse code the first time and complaints about dots and strokes. Imagine getting a page in morse code and having to decode it - it would take a few hours at least.
Has the distinct smell of bullshit to me, I've never seen such a concentration of gobshyte in one place.
It's (a very bad) way of saying 'If you believe then you will believe', once you believe something to be true then of course you find every hidden meaning. The same though can be said of the hunger of any religion, creed, conspiracy theory or dogma.
