Missunderstanding of Galatians - Works of the law
================ Man made rules ======================
One of the greatest hindrances to people in traditional Christianity to embracing their Hebraic roots is a lack of understanding and misinterpretation of the book of Galatians. One of the greatest stumbling blocks to understanding the book of Galatians is confusion over the meaning of the term "works of the law".
Traditional Christianity usually interprets this to mean "following Torah". However, from an analysis of discoveries found in the dead sea scrolls which clearly reveals that the phrase "works of the law" refers to the "ORAL" law (Talmud) and various "MAN-MADE rulings" regarding how we should follow the Torah which are NOT in the WRITTEN TORAH. These MAN-MADE rules of code and conduct can also be present in TODAY'S churches.
================ Dead Sea Scrolls ======================
Among Dead Sea Scrolls have been found how the apostles explain what the "work of the law" is. Jewish priests wrote their own books Talmud and the Mishnah in which their own interpretations are. These interpretations are not what is meant in the Torah but the Jews want people to learn the Talmud and Mishnah, instead of Torah.
He writes about how the Christians, especially those who are very anti-Torah laws, create their own interpretations and rules and laws just like the Jews did with their explanations in Talmud etc. So everyone who says that as a Christian you have to attend this or that church to be saved, or that Christian must confess their sins to be saved, or that one must be baptized to be saved, one that you must take Communion, etc., all they have created their own laws and are under "The Curse".
It's is huge amount religious people that will end up in hell for following people's rules instead of God's laws.
============= Second Moses has the last word ===================
The bottom line, therefore, is that Christ Himself has the last word. He is the "second Moses," the Prophet like unto Moses, who had FINAL AUTHORITY to "interpret" the Mosaic Law -- and provide a new "halakkah" of true
interpretation and obedience (see Matthew 5-7). He came to "fill full" the Law, and make it complete (Matt.5:17-19).
== MESSIAH IS A PRIEST AFTER THE ORDER OF MELCHEZEDEK ===
Hebrews 7:11
If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
Hebrews 7:12
For the priesthood being changed ...
Hebrews 7:14
For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda, of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
Hebrews 7:17
For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
Hebrews 7:22
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
THE LEVITICAL PRIESTHOOD WAS OUR TUTOR TO BRING US TO MESSIAH
Galatians 3:24
Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
The law = Levitical Priesthood which was added because of the transgression of the golden calf
