"I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill." But somewhere along the way, fulfill got quietly swapped out for finish off, like Jesus showed up and closed the book on the Old Testament for good. That is not what the Greek actually says. In this episode I'm breaking down the two Greek words at the center of Matthew 5:17, the second-century heretic whose ideas are still floating around our pulpits today, what Paul has to say about it in Romans, and why this changes how you read your entire Old Testament. Not just this one verse. The whole thing. Grab your coffee. This one's going to mess with a few things you thought were settled.
