"Think not that I am come to destroy the law." Do not imagine that I am come to violate the law. I am not come to make the law of none effect—to dissolve the connection which subsists between its several parts, or the obligation men are under to have their lives regulated by its moral precepts. "It is worthy of note that the word, gamar, among the rabbins, signifies not only to fulfill, but also to teach; and consequently we may infer that our Lord intimated that the law and the prophets were still to be taught or inculcated by him and his disciples; and this he and they have done in the most pointed manner."
