According to Moses, his book of the Torah is the timeless and immutable cultural reference manual of salvation for the Israelites and the world, as it is written in Deuteronomy 4:1-2, 5:31-32.
Yehoshua (Jesus) reaffirms the foregoing truth in Matthew 5:17-18 and, as such, makes the Israelite Bible still the basis for all people who would want to do what pleases God Father and Yehoshua (Jesus) Messiah YHWH, the Believing (faithful) Witness., according to the Apocalypse.
Have you been told otherwise? Have you been taught to badmouth Jesus (John 8:24) or to drop any IOTA from the writings of Moses for whatever reason (Luke 16:17)? Have you been keeping or observing some RELIGIOUS doctrine IN HONOR OF GOD which is not in Moses or has been fulfilled?
Well, you have been led astray (2 Corinthians 11:13-15) and your worship is vain, worthless (Mark 7:6-7), whether you are an Israelite, a remnant Jew, or a pagan Disciple of Yehoshua (Iesus)Messiah YHWH.
Also, Moses already explained the Law in the book of Deuteronomy (1:5).
HENCE, JUDAISM IS THE IMMUTABLE DOGMA WHICH MAY NOT BE INTERPRETED BY ANYONE, BUT TO BE FOLLOWED ONLY AS FULFILLED BY JESUS FOR REAL SALVATION &Matthew 5:17-18).
If Jesus says that salvation is from the Jews, the reference of salvation of the Jews (Luke 16:27-31) may not be changed in any way so that the Israelites, the remnant Jews, and the Gentiles can find salvation. Deuteronomy 4:1-2, 5:31-32.
The sin of Solomon caused the division of the kingdom of Israel into two separate kingdoms, which were Israel and Judah. Israel fell first to cease to exist as a nation because of idolatry and rebellion against YAHWEH and was sent to exile to the diaspora. The Kingdom of Judah followed because of idolatry and rebellion against Yehoshua (Jesus) Messiah YHWH.
There are many different conglomerates of Jews, each led by a visionary man with his agenda to steer his brothers away from the source of Judaism by all kinds of reasoning which are sharp machetes attempting to cut down Judaism. But, Judaism is immutable. And Moses already explained the Torah, his Law, in the book of Deuteronomy (Deuteronomy 1:5).
Unlike all the other nations, an Israelite or a Jew is a nation with a distinct unique cultural identity, even though they do not gather as a homogenous people but they are divided into fragments of Judaism. The Israelite or the Jew cannot be recognized in all those who claim Jewishness and brandish it in their own fashion. If that were the case, we would have to spend a lifetime trying to figure out who is a Jew.
Immutable Judaism defines all the Israelites. Immutable Judaism defines all the Jews. From the desert until the close of our world.
How does the Immutable Judaism defines an Israelite or a Jew?
Since their deliverance out of Egypt, in all the writings of Moses, the Israelite was called upon to be a person to become holy to God. God has not given up on this call and will not give up, no matter what anyone who claims to be Jew would argue against the unshakable definition of a Jew, as in claiming that such a standard is unattainable.
It is so attainable that when the God of the Jews (Israelites) became flesh, He extended the same offer to become holy to Him to the whole willing world, including the chosen people, based on the same immutability of Judaism. Remember, even before the conquest of Canaan, Jesus says that there is one law for the Jews and the same one law for the pagans among them (Numbers 15:13-16).
Jesus declares in Matthew 5:17-18 that for one iota to change in Moses, our world must disappear first.
Therefore, any Israelite or Jew or Christian who advocates reforming or adjusting or dropping or adding anything in the Judaism of Moses to satisfy any generation or because of Jesus, will incur the wrath of God Jesus because such person is inspired and led by Satan (2 Corinthians 11:13-15).
Exodus 19:5-6 ASV
(5) Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be mine own possession from among all peoples: for all the earth is mine:
(6) and ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.
1 Peter 2:9-12 ASV
(9) But ye are an elect race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, that ye may show forth the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
(10) who in time past were no people, but now are the people of God: who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
(11) Beloved, I beseech you as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;
(12) having your behavior seemly among the Gentiles; that, wherein they speak against you as evil-doers, they may by your good works, which they behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
Deuteronomy 9:1-8 ASV
(1) Hear, O Israel: thou art to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fortified up to heaven,
(2) a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the sons of Anak?
(3) Know therefore this day, that Jehovah thy God is he who goeth over before thee as a devouring fire; he will destroy them, and he will bring them down before thee: so shalt thou drive them out, and make them to perish quickly, as Jehovah hath spoken unto thee.
(4) Speak not thou in thy heart, after that Jehovah thy God hath thrust them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness Jehovah hath brought me in to possess this land; whereas for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah doth drive them out from before thee.
(5) Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, dost thou go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
(6) Know therefore, that Jehovah thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.
(7) Remember, forget thou not, how thou provokedst Jehovah thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou wentest forth out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah.
(8) Also in Horeb ye provoked Jehovah to wrath, and Jehovah was angry with you to destroy you.
Deuteronomy 9:1-8 ASV
(1) Hear, O Israel: thou art to pass over the Jordan this day, to go in to dispossess nations greater and mightier than thyself, cities great and fortified up to heaven,
(2) a people great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom thou knowest, and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the sons of Anak?
(3) Know therefore this day, that Jehovah thy God is he who goeth over before thee as a devouring fire; he will destroy them, and he will bring them down before thee: so shalt thou drive them out, and make them to perish quickly, as Jehovah hath spoken unto thee.
(4) Speak not thou in thy heart, after that Jehovah thy God hath thrust them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness Jehovah hath brought me in to possess this land; whereas for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah doth drive them out from before thee.
(5) Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, dost thou go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
(6) Know therefore, that Jehovah thy God giveth thee not this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiffnecked people.
(7) Remember, forget thou not, how thou provokedst Jehovah thy God to wrath in the wilderness: from the day that thou wentest forth out of the land of Egypt, until ye came unto this place, ye have been rebellious against Jehovah.
(8) Also in Horeb ye provoked Jehovah to wrath, and Jehovah was angry with you to destroy you.
Deuteronomy 10:12-22 ASV
(12) And now, Israel, what doth Jehovah thy God require of thee, but to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,
(13) to keep the commandments of Jehovah, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good?
(14) Behold, unto Jehovah thy God belongeth heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that is therein.
(15) Only Jehovah had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all peoples, as at this day.
(16) Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked.
(17) For Jehovah your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of lords, the great God, the mighty, and the terrible, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward.
(18) He doth execute justice for the fatherless and widow, and loveth the sojourner, in giving him food and raiment.
(19) Love ye therefore the sojourner; for ye were sojourners in the land of Egypt.
(20) Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God; him shalt thou serve; and to him shalt thou cleave, and by his name shalt thou swear.
(21) He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen.
(22) Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now Jehovah thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
In John 8:24, Jesus wants the Israelite and the remnant Jew to believe that He is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or the 'I AM' of Moses, who is known by the untranslatable tetragrammaton name YHWH.
Jesus wants His people to pick up a copy of a translated Torah or Bible, if he or she does not know ancient Hebrew, to learn the will of Jesus directly to answer to the original call in the desert to be holy unto Jesus and to not learn from any rabbinic source of interpretation of Moses any other precepts (Matthew 5:17-18) because Moses had already explained the Torah in the book of Deuteronomy.
The language of the Torah is so clear, if you have a heart to understand, that you would come to realize that the Torah does not any interpretation from anyone. Jesus teaches in the parable of the rich man and Lazarus that we must listen to Him in Moses and the Prophets to avoid going to burn in the Lake of fire, which is the second death. Moses says that the Torah has already been baked in our mouth and our heart (30:13-14).
An Israelite or the remnant Jew may not follow the apostasy of Christianity but must hold to the part of Moses which is not the fulfilled works of the Torah in the Temple with their sabbaths. There is one holy day or holiday to keep, which is the seventh day Sabbath, and the last supper on the Wednesday of the Passover day.
Read the declaration of Deuteronomy 30:10-20.
Deuteronomy 31:14-22 ASV
(14) And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thy days approach that thou must die: call Joshua, and present yourselves in the tent of meeting, that I may give him a charge. And Moses and Joshua went, and presented themselves in the tent of meeting.
(15) And Jehovah appeared in the Tent in a pillar of cloud: and the pillar of cloud stood over the door of the Tent.
(16) And Jehovah said unto Moses, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up, and play the harlot after the strange gods of the land, whither they go to be among them, and will forsake me, and break my covenant which I have made with them.
(17) Then my anger shall be kindled against them in that day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide my face from them, and they shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall come upon them; so that they will say in that day, Are not these evils come upon us because our God is not among us?
(18) And I will surely hide my face in that day for all the evil which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.
(19) Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach thou it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.
(20) For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxed fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant.
(21) And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are come upon them, that this song shall testify before them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for I know their imagination which they frame this day, before I have brought them into the land which I sware.
(22) So Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel.
Deuteronomy 30:10-20 ASV
(10) if thou shalt obey the voice of Jehovah thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn unto Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
(11) For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not too hard for thee, neither is it far off.
(12) It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?
(13) Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, and make us to hear it, that we may do it?
(14) But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
(15) See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil;
(16) in that I command thee this day to love Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to keep his commandments and his statutes and his ordinances, that thou mayest live and multiply, and that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest in to possess it.
(17) But if thy heart turn away, and thou wilt not hear, but shalt be drawn away, and worship other gods, and serve them;
(18) I denounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish; ye shall not prolong your days in the land, whither thou passest over the Jordan to go in to possess it.
(19) I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse: therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed;
(20) to love Jehovah thy God, to obey his voice, and to cleave unto him; for he is thy life, and the length of thy days; that thou mayest dwell in the land which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
