Exodus Introduction to the Law

ExodusSteve Gregg
In Steve Gregg's "Exodus Introduction to the Law", the role and significance of the Law of Moses is explored. The Law is viewed positively as embodying moral wisdom directly from God, representing God's unchangeable nature and character. While it includes both moral behavior and worship procedures, the latter only has enduring validity until the coming of Christ. The laws are divided into moral, ceremonial, and civil categories, with civil laws being specific to Israel's political entity and not applicable to Christians today.
