Until heaven and earth disappear - 6th Sunday of the Year

Published: Feb. 7, 2023, 10 p.m.

Until heaven and earth disappear: Jesus continues to reflect upon the Laws by reminding everyone of them. He interprets that law with the words, "But I say to you." On the authority of his own person and word he does not deny the value of the Law of Israel, but he asks we look deeper into the reasons for our obedience to God. The Law of Israel calls us to right living, and Jesus' interpretation of that Law brings it to perfection, by asking that we adopt a higher righteousness.
