Everything Whatsoever I Have Commanded
======================================
`Matthew 23:1-3' --- Then spake Jesus to the multitude,
and to his disciples, Saying, The scribes and the
Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: All therefore whatsoever
they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye
after their works: for they say, and do not.
His disciples
This was an instruction and command not only to the multitudes
but also to Jesus' disciples.
Moses
The Scribes and the Pharisees sat in the place of Moses, and
commanded the observance of the Law of Moses, which is the Torah
Law.
All ... whatsoever
Every little thing that is commanded of the Torah Law.
therefore
It is /because/ they sit in the seat of Moses and administer
God's Law.
that observe and do
Keep and do the Torah Law as commanded in every particular.
So here we have a clear command from Yeshua (Jesus) to His disciples
to observe the Torah Law (Moses) in every detail. It is not a friendly
suggestion, but a command. Compare Matthew 28:20.
`Matthew 28:20' --- Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you
always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
