One such misconception is that Jesus came to override the Old Testament scriptures. His message and God’s written Word are inseparable. In a still broader sense, it was used to speak of the entire Old Testament (Romans 13:8-10; James 2:8-11; John 7:19-23; Matthew 5:18; Luke 16:16,17). The foundation of the Old Testament was the law given in the Pentateuch, which the prophets, psalmists, and other inspired writers preached, expounded and applied. Did He come to destroy the judicial law, which was given to provide unique identity for Israel as a nation?
