He goes on to say that anyone who wants to follow any part of the law of Moses must follow the whole law of Moses*. That means that anyone judging someone for old testament laws is a sinner themselves for eating pork or shrimp, for wearing clothing of mixed fabrics, and 611 other laws that are quite difficult to follow in a modern world.

      Thanks for the clarification!

      It is an old, confusing patchwork quilt of a book and much of it open to interpretation - with many picking and choosing.
