Righteousness is fulfillment of the Law of God, so it can be applied in both laws. Law of Moses says, 'Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:' (5.38) What does Law of the Spirit say,"but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also." Scrupulously observing the law of Moses a Pharisee or scribe make a religion of it. In order to show sorrow he may cite Jacob's example at seeing the blood stained coat. " And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days." When the sorrow of a father as interpreted by a Pharisee makes a 'circus' and 75 ways are known to have entered under 'Kriah', and it is tradition of their father, not one which is genuine. It is the law of sin and death.
Law of the Spirit as demonstrated by Jesus of Nazareth has been settled before the worlds began. It is sanctified by the Word that was God. So the writer to the Hebrews writes,"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."(Heb.12.2) The Law of the Spirit is embodied by Jesus for perfecting the Will of his Father. This is what works constitute: You put your life on the line. Inaugural vision of the risen Christ is a composite image of the Ancient of days so Jesus embodies the Law of the Spirit. The great congregation speak of witnesses from both heaven and earth. "I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart./I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest./ I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation."(Ps.40.8-10)
Similarly my word ministry is addressed to them. Amen.
