What are Yeshua's (Jesus') commandments? When he says, "keep my
commandments," to which commandments is he referring?
John 14:15 If you love me, keep my commandments.
Mark 14:62-63 Jesus said, "I am. You will see the Son of
Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming with
the clouds of the sky." The high priest tore his clothes,
and said, "What further need have we of witnesses?"
The high priest tore his clothes because Yeshua uttered blasphemy in
his ears, claiming to be Yahweh God Himself. We see from Scripture
that there is only one God, Yahweh, and there is no other Almighty.
For example:
Isaiah 45:18 For thus says Yahweh who created the heavens,
the God who formed the earth and made it, who established
it and didn't create it a waste, who formed it to be
inhabited: "I am Yahweh; and there is no other."
This means that Yahweh and Yeshua are one and the same. Yeshua is
God-in-the-flesh. This, in turn, means that every commandment given in
Scripture is Yeshua's commandment!
Yeshua was telling us to keep all of his Scriptural commandments if we
love him! In other words, all of the so-called "Old Testament"
commandments are included.
