Mark 7:15 - Additional Comments

Jesus is taking the laws they had been following to a new realm, and He is now including not just the oral laws of the Pharisees, but He is now also negating the eating requirements of the Old Testament. How should we approach the law of the Old Testament? Using the "Priciplism" approach - all OT laws need to be viewed through the lens of the NT. The OT continues to be law only as it aligns with the NT. Otherwise, it is to only be used for universal guidelines.
