Hey Rob,
""You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former. "" in Matthew 23:23
This is a good reading to support Mosaic law in the NT. In fact, good work on reminding me of this verse, I must add it to the doctrinal Peshitta article!!! I think you'll find the Peshitta really says:
"You should have practiced the latter, and not neglected them"
The Peshitta does not say "without neglecting the former"
Now suddenly the verse is a strong case in point for those who believe the Mosaic law is the schoolmaster that is obsolete.
All the important moral stuff from the mosaic law is all in the NT law anyway <!-- s
