Subject: New Perspective of Sha'ul |
Bible Note: Greetings Talmid! First of all, welcome to the forum! As I read your post, I was reminded that one of the difficulties that I have with your position is that I don't agree that Paul was only speaking about the oral traditions. For instance, in Gal. 3:10, Paul cites Deut. 27:26 as a part of his argument. Was Deut. 27:26 speaking of the Torah or the oral traditions? The assumption that many make is that when Paul speaks of the 'law', he only means the oral traditions, but is this assumption valid? For instance, in Gal. 3:15ff, Paul is clearly speaking of the Torah. Finally, in Gal. 5:4, some were clearly trying to be justified by obeying the Law, contrary to what many writers today tell us. :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
