Here is a brief passage from the Gospel of John, in which some
versions contain a translation error implying that Torah is not /his/
Law (which, of course, it is).
Yohanan Chapter 8, verses 14 to 18 (John 8:14--18)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Yeshua:] /Even if I give testimony of myself, my
testimony is true/ [i.e.: valid], /because I know from
where I come and where I am going./
Yeshua is divine, the only Son of God the Almighty, so his testimony
is necessarily valid.
/But you/ [plural] /do not know from where I come or where
I am going./
You do not know who I am, that I am the only Son of God.
/You/ [plural] /judge according to the flesh/ [human
nature without the Holy Spirit]; /I am not judging
anyone./
That is, I am not judging anyone now.
/And even if I do judge, my judgement is true/ [that is,
valid], /because I am not alone, but I and the Father who
has sent me./
Even according to the provisions of the Law which apply to you (all),
my judgement is valid, because there are two of us: the Father and I.
/In the Law *FOR YOU*/ [that is, not "your law", but the
provisions of the Torah which are incumbent upon you all]
/it is written that the testimony of two persons is true/
[that is, valid]: /it is I who bear/ /witness to myself,
but also the Father, who has sent me, bears witness to
me./
N.B.: It is not the case that Yeshua speaks of */their/* Law, as if it
is not also his! He wrote the Law for his people, and so the Torah is
his!

Testament and Other Early Christian Literature/, (BDAG), 3rd Edition,
