   I was reading Jesus 'Teaching on the Law'*. Which started theolgoical musings on the Law. The church teaches that the moral and ethical components of the Mosaic Law still apply, but the ceremonial and dietry components do not. But what are they 'moral and ethical componenets of the law'?
   The first is the Bible's summarisation of the law. So there's 'The Ten Commandements'*, 'The Golden Rule'* and 'The Greatest Commandment'*. Whilst this gives me enough sate my initial curiousity, at some point I want to familiarise myself with the 613 commandments (a disputed number). Familiarise myself with them and see if there are commandments that seem out of line with 'The Ten Commandments', 'The Golden Rule' and 'The Greatest Commandment. I also have some skepticism that it is a simple seperate all the commandments as 'moral' or 'ceremonial'.

     @fuat2mb cheers, I've heard of it. I don't read a lot (unless you count graphic novels, audio and my bible) so I'm unlikely to.
