Christ Fulfills the Law
Gospel’s Comparison
17“Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.
18For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.
19Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
20For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.
16“The law and the prophets were until John. Since that time the kingdom of God has been preached, and everyone is pressing into it.
17And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for one tittle of the law to fail.
