613 COMMANDMENTS

So did “Yeshua” abolish those 613 commandments?

In a word: NO!

The Torah (or Law of Moses) is composed of the 613 Mitzvot, or Commandments, in the Tanakh (Old Testament) that G_d gave to Moses on Mount Sinai involving the festivals, the Ten Commandments, sacrifices, kashrut (kosher laws), etc. Generally speaking, Gentile Christianity today maintains that the Law is completely dead now that Yeshua has come and that we should have nothing to do with it.

But Yeshua tells us in Matthew 5:17-19
“Do not think that I came to abolish the Torah or the Prophets! I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill *. Amen, I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or serif shall ever pass away from the Torah until all things come to pass. Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever keeps and teaches them, this one shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

* The translation of “to fulfill” is lekayem in Hebrew (le-KAI-yem), which means to uphold or establish.

We recognize that the Law was never made to get us into Heaven, but that it is a guide to follow to help us walk in the footsteps of Yeshua. The only way to be saved is through trust and grace of our Messiah.

Yeshua said “I am the way, and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)

We must remember that all of the other Laws fall under the Ten Commandments and that they are now written on our hearts. (Jeremiah 31:31)

Where does one find those original 613 commandments? They come straight from the Torah. You can see them sprinkled throughout the Torah in places such as Gen 26:2-5; Ex 15:25-27; Ex 16; Ex 20:6; Lev 22, 26, 27; Num 15, 36; Deut 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 26, 27, 28, 30, 31. There are more, but you get the picture: G_d was very adamant about people following all His teachings and commandments.

Why is it important for us to know about G_d’s original commandments? Everything G_d tells us to do is important and we are required to follow His orders. Obviously, some of the original commands cannot be followed today because they were dealing with the king, the Temple, the priesthood, or living in the Land; some pertained to the rabbis, some only to men, and some only to women.

However, G_d’s “forever” commands (seventh-day Sabbath, Biblical Feasts, etc) still stand, and Christians, as part of Israel through the blood of Messiah, should do “exactly as the Jews”:

Numbers 15:13-15 13 “Everyone native-born is to do these things like so when bringing a fire offering as a pleasant aroma to Adonai. 14 Whenever an outsider resides with you, or whoever is among you for your generations to come, and he is to present a fire offering as a fragrant aroma to Adonai, as you do, he must do exactly the same as you are doing. 15 “The community will have the same rule for you as well as for the resident outsider. It will be a lasting statute throughout your generations. As for you, so for the outsider will it be before Adonai.

Some insist that “Torah was only for the Jews”, but as we can see from the above scripture, that is not true. The “foreigners” include everyone who has chosen to believe in Yeshua! The Bible tells us G_d is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8); that Yeshua is G_d-Come-in-the-Flesh; and that He and His disciples were all Torah observant, seventh-day Sabbath and Feast-keeping, kosher Jews. The Bible also tells us that His original followers in the First Century (before Catholicism came to pervert the Word), were all Torah observant, as well. So what supposedly happened to change that? The answer is: Man’s opinions got in the way….

Okay, so how did the “New Covenant” change the way we were to worship? Let’s check it out:

Although the COVENANT changed, the following did not:

• Torah
• HaShem’s provisions
• The penalty for disobedience
• HaShem’s promises

Psalm 119:89-91 89 Your word continues forever, ADONAI, firmly fixed in heaven; 90 your faithfulness through all generations; you established the earth, and it stands, 91 Yes, it stands today, in keeping with your rulings; for all things are your servants. (Tree of Life (TLV) Bible)

So, what HAS changed?

The Steward: Yeshua is now the steward, releasing Moses of that responsibility, and thereby fulfilling the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:

Deuteronomy 18:18-19  I will raise up a prophet like you for them from among their brothers. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will speak to them all that I command him. 19 Now whoever does not listen to My words that this prophet speaks in My Name, I Myself will call him to account.

The Torah written on our hearts: The Torah is presented and managed (not replaced – G_d never said He was replacing Torah!) under a new covenant which is written on our hearts via the Ruach haKodesh (Holy Spirit), which fulfills the prophecy of Jeremiah 31:

Jeremiah 31:32 32 “But this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days”
—it is a declaration of Adonai—
“I will put My Torah within them.
Yes, I will write it on their heart.
I will be their God
and they will be My people.

Please note that “Torah written on our hearts” means we are willing to follow G_d’s instruction and learn and obey Torah; not that we are born with an innate knowledge about His teachings and commands which we can ignore at will!

The Priest: Instead of an Aaronic high priest, the high priest is one “after the order of Melchizedek”- Yeshua our Messiah; which fulfills the prophecy of Psalm 110 in which King David wrote:

Psalms 110:1-4 A psalm of David.
Adonai declares to my Lord:
“Sit at My right hand
until I make your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”
2 Adonai will extend your mighty rod from Zion:
“Rule in the midst of your enemies.”
3 Your people will be a freewill offering in a day of your power.
In holy splendors, from dawn’s womb,
yours is the dew of your youth.
4 Adonai has sworn, and will not His mind:
“You are a Kohen forever according to the order of Melchizedek.”

The Sacrifice: Innocent animals were sacrificed under the Mosaic covenant. But, under the new covenant, Yeshua Himself is the Sacrifice, thus fulfilling the foreshadowing of Psalm 40, which relates to animal sacrifice:

Psalm 40:7-9 7 Sacrifice and offering You did not desire
—my ears You have opened—
burnt offering and sin offering You did not require.
8 Then I said: “Here I am, I have come—
in the scroll of a book, it is written about me.
9 I delight to do Your will, O my God.
Yes, Your Torah is within my being.”

We need to remember, as Paul said, Yeshua was our final SIN offering, and the only way to obtain eternal life is to believe in His shed blood on the cross. When Torah observant believers talk about “walking in Torah” and keeping the feasts, however, people jump to conclusions and accuse us of doing it in order to receive eternal life; this is absolutely NOT true, man is not “saved” by works! We must keep Torah because G_d commanded it and because we want to (once it is written on our hearts); and because G_d never “did away with” His original divine teaching and instruction!

Matthew 5: 17 “Don’t think that I have come to abolish the Torah or the Prophets. I have come not to abolish but to complete. 18 Yes indeed! I tell you that until heaven and earth pass away, not so much as a yud or a stroke will pass from the Torah – not until everything that must happen has happened. 19 So whoever disobeys the least of these mitzvot and teaches others to do so will be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven. But whoever obeys them and so teaches will be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven. 20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness is far greater than that of the Torah-teachers and P’rushim, you will certainly not enter the Kingdom of Heaven!” (Stern’s)

Psalm 89:33 But I won’t withdraw my grace from him or be false to my faithfulness. 34 I will not profane my covenant or change what my lips have spoken. 35 I have sworn by my holiness once and for all; I will not lie to David… (Stern’s)

John 14:15 If you love me, you will keep My Commands; (Stern’s)

John 14:21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me, and the one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and reveal myself to him.” (Stern’s)

Jeremiah 31:33 “For this is the covenant I will make with the house of Isra’el after those days,” says ADONAI: “I will put my Torah within them and write it on their hearts; I will be their G_d, and they will be my people. (Stern’s)

Ezekiel 11: 19-21 “… I will put a New Spirit in them … I will give them a heart of flesh, so that they will keep My Laws and respect My Observances and put them into practice. Then shall they be My People …”

Matthew 5:17 “I tell you solemnly, till heaven and earth disappear, not one little stroke shall disappear from the Law until its purpose is achieved….

Let’s also remember Romans 3:31 which says: “Do we then nullify the Law through faith? May it never be! On the contrary, we establish the Law….”

A good question for a doubter to ask himself is: Are there ANY passages in the “Old Testament” or in the New Covenant that suggest Messiah would bring with Him a new religion? He fulfilled G_d’s “New Covenant” that would ensure eternal life for those who believed that Yeshua was the final Sin-offering, but NOTHING suggested a new “religion” or the instructions to ignore G_d’s original FOREVER covenant!

The bottom line is: Yeshua’s arrival and ultimate death on the cross did NOT abolish Torah! He said so, Himself. He kept the feasts; He ate only kosher foods; He worshipped and taught in synagogues. Everything He did was completely and thoroughly Jewish and exactly according to Scripture – and He instructed His disciples to do the same.

So, what exactly were the original 613 commandments? G_d gave us 248 positive Mitzvot/Commandments (“the Do’s”), and 365 negative ones (“the Don’ts”). They are as follows:
