The law given at Mt. Sinai was a moral code given by God Himself.
It was not the only moral code in history by any means.
It was the one authentic divinely delivered high moral standard in commandments.
Bible juxtaposes life with Jesus Christ as better, higher, more authentic and more effective than living by this moral code (even originally from God). By extension living in and with Jesus Christ is better than any other high moral code too.
Why is this so?
And what is the difference between the commands of Jesus Christ and the commandments of God given from Mt. Sinai in the Old Testament?
