All of the studies, book or topical, found here, are done with research with mainly two things: The KING JAMES BIBLE and a plain old, 1828 Webster's Dictionary. Why? Outside of actually studying secular and Jewish history, archaeology, one needs nothing more. You do not need foreign, dead languages that no one speaks, lexicons, concordances or commentaries, because they differ not only with one another and with the KING JAMES BIBLE, but they create division, confusion, debate, and unbelief. We do not need them. That Word of God written and preserved for us in our own language is supposed to be enough, like the Old Testament was for the Jews, and the New Testament for the early Christians in Greek, Latin, Italian, Spanish, German, etc. There are studies within as tangents on words, subjects found within the two testaments, as to broaden the scope of the study, to learn more, deeper truths. This is not an intellectual site with PhDs, theologians, and no worldly wisdom.. Check everything out, everything. Not just here, but with everything you read and see and hear. Be Bereans:
(Acts 17:11 [KJV])
Always research for yourself, use all of the context, and never privately interpret!
The purpose of the Law was to have Israel be obedient to God, to show God in His Holiness through their obedience. No other nation was to act like them, as no other nation was to be given that law directly from God, only through the nation of Israel. The purpose of the Law was also to protect them from harm, disease, their enemies, the wild beast, protect the family unit, keep societal order and, most of all, separate them from the world merely by being different, so as to bring the pagan gentiles to God through them. Finally, the purpose of the Law was to point them to Christ as a schoolmaster in every way, through ever law. The nation gave rise to the Messiah despite them breaking the Law, despite the work of the enemy to destroy the nation, destroy the lineage, destroy the firstborn in Israel (Bethlehem), etc. because God is Sovereign, period! God is able to do so without the Law, as God does not need the Law-He gave it! Further, this was conditional, as long as they obeyed. They we re an example always-a good one, when obeying, a bad one, when disobeying. They because a byword and God was mocked because of it. It is the same with us, in the often heard questions, "You call yourself a CHRISTIAN?!". (Romans 4:1)
