1. Was Jesus disagreeing with the OT law?

2. Matt. 5
“You have heard that is was said”
Jesus deeper meaning
Murder
Your ok as long as you don’t commit the outward act of murder
Do not hold on to
Anger, be reconciled
Adultery
As long as you don’t commit the act of adultery
Do not even lust deal with it
Divorce
You can divorce as long as you give her the paper
Only for actual unfaithfulness. A certificate does not make it right
Oaths
Keep only the oaths using the Lord’s name
Be true to everything, be honest
Revenge
Its ok as long s its one for one
Avoid revenge
Enemies
As long as you love your neighbor that is enough, you don’t have to love everyone
Love even your enemies.

3. Adultery
Jesus said that if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away Should we literally hurt our bodies if they are part of our sin?
No, figure of speech Hyperbole We should take sin seriously though.

4. Oaths
In verse 34, Jesus says not to swear an oath at all. Is he utterly forbidding making a promise- such as during a wedding or in a court case?
No, again Jesus uses strong language to make a point. Mean what you say.

5. Revenge
The Jewish leaders took the phrase, “Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth” literally. In Deut. 19:18. it is clear that this command was written to judges about how they should punish criminal cases. How does that context change you insight?
Judges should give the fair punishment
Justice not revenge.
