Christ didn’t just paraphrase,
speaking about commandments,
He was proving a point,
Christ quoted scripture,
word for word, precisely,
ancient words in the Law,
speaking with authority,
with power in this moment…
Their questions were turned around,
this was a challenge, an indictment,
against their failure, their sin,
experts on the Law, the Torah,
the Tanakh, leaders standing before Him,
challenging Him to answer,
not knowing what they had done,
Challenging God to His face...
