The Law Fulfilled: A Study of Matthew

Matthew 5:17–20, which begins, “I have not come to abolish the law and the prophets but to fulfill them,” is the most common proof text used by our “Torah-keeping” (aka Hebrew Roots) friends to bolster their belief that Christians are required to keep the old covenant law. There’s no doubt this passage speaks profoundly about the law and its enduring importance. But one thing it doesn’t say is that followers of Jesus are under that law. Not only because if it taught that, it would contradict many other parts of the NT, but also because that’s not what Jesus is teaching here. We unpack this passage verse by verse and reveal why that's the case. And we go pretty deep, so grab your Bible and some paper for taking notes as you watch!
