    Fun fact: Numbers is also part of the Torah! Christians don’t have a monopoly on this crazy. Good old Abrahamic religions.

      i’d even go as far as to say that the point of the sacrifice of jesus was to tear up the old testament, so christians have no reason to follow all this old crap.

        He specifically said he wasn’t going to tear it up, right? That he came not to change one “jot or tittle” of the old law, but to “fulfill” it, whatever that means. Never made any sense to me.

          it changes so much depending on which book you read too, the apostles had very different opinions
