8. A law of truth He gave; this is the law from heaven, "In the
beginning" unto "in the sight of all Israel." Also its comment received
orally is likewise "a law (given) unto Moses from Sinai."
9. God will not change or alter His law forever. He will never change
the law of Moses our Rabbi--peace be unto him! The law will suffer no
addition or diminution (but it will abide even), as the prophet Malachi
sealed it with the seal of the prophets in ending his words (Mal. iv.
4), "Remember ye the law of Moses My servant, which I commanded unto him
in Horeb for all Israel." Formerly the law was in a garment of light,
but in consequence of sin, the law became materialized in a garment of
skin, in the same proportion as man became materialized in a body of
flesh. In the future, after the redemption, however, the law will have
the garment of light restored, and the Messiah will preach the law in
terrible mysteries, such as no ear has ever heard, and it will appear to
us as a new law. But the law will not be altered, or made new, as the
nations of the world say. Jer. xxxi. 30-33.
