Page 75 - Laying Down the Law

gone astray while under your husband's authority, and if you have defiled
yourself and some man other than your husband has lain with you" - then the
priest shall put the woman under the oath of the curse, and he shall say to the
woman - "Yahweh make you a curse and an oath among your people, when
Yahweh makes your thigh rot and your belly swell; and may this water that
causes the curse go into your stomach, and make your belly swell and your
thigh rot." 'Then the woman shall say, "Amen, so be it."

Because there does not exist on the earth today a nation that has adopted the
Law of Moses as their legal code, and there is no longer a functioning priesthood, nor
even a Temple with an altar, the majority of the Law’s requirements CANNOT be
fulfilled. This presents the person who desires to be “Torah Observant” with an
insurmountable obstacle. James, the brother of the Messiah, wrote the following:

James 2:10
Whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of
all.”

Under the covenant delivered to Moses, Yahweh could only be satisfied when a
man kept the entirety of the Law.

Deuteronomy 27:26
'Cursed is the one who does not confirm ALL the words of this law by doing
them.' And all the people shall say, 'Amen!'

The Law required a very specific environment in which to function. The situation
was very different from the days of Moses to Christ. However, in A.D. 70, the Roman
Emperor ended a rebellion of the Jewish people by burning the city, tearing down the
temple, and abolishing the priesthood. To this date the temple has not been rebuilt,
nor the priesthood restored. Neither is there a government in place that has adopted
the Law of Moses as its legal code.
Was it merely coincidental that the ability to observe the Law’s commandments
ended shortly after the death of Christ, and this condition has continued to this day?
It is no more a coincidence than the curtain barring entrance to the Holy of Holies
being torn asunder from top to bottom at the moment Christ breathed His last on the
cross of Calvary. Yahweh had irreversibly altered the manner through which mankind
could approach Him. Man had gone from shadow to substance.

Hebrews 10:19-20
Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of
Yahshua, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the
veil, that is, His flesh...
