Episode 746: TE: Have Heaven and Earth Already Passed Away? (Matthew 5:18)

Has heaven and earth already passed away?Some interpret Matthew 5:18 to mean the destruction of the temple in 70 AD fulfilled Yeshua's words and brought the Torah to an end. This teaching examines that claim by comparing Matthew 5 with Peter's and John's descriptions of the passing away of heaven and earth.ScripturesMatthew 5:17–19 2 Peter 3:7–13 Revelation 21:1–4 Matthew 28:18–20 Deuteronomy 30:1–5TakeawayScripture consistently places the passing away of heaven and earth in the future. Since heaven and earth remain, so does God's Torah.
