katapi HOME Matthew 5:17-20 - Teaching about the Law  Mt.5.17-20 (Galilee)

5 17 "Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come not to abolish them but to fulfil them. 5 18 For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. 5 19 Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 5 20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
