    The Sermon on the Mount? Jesus does not regret the Old Testament Law in the Sermon on the Mount.

Even though at some points in the Sermon on the Mount Jesus rephrases the commandments‚ it does not mean that he is rejecting all of them in their entirety. So‚ looking right at the surface of the Sermon on the

    original Son of God. The main point that each writer raises is that Christ is of importance . I believe that Matthew sets up his gospel so it cannot be proven wrong. One interesting thing that he does is he compares Jesus to Moses in the “Sermon on the Mount” And in that very moment Jesus is like a king to his subjects. “ When Jesus saw the crowds‚ he went up the mountain; and after he sat down‚ his disciples came to him” (Matthew 5:1 NRSV). In many ways this imagine is just like that of Moses
