Your attempts to find some fault with me do not address the Biblical question of whether Yeshua said that the whole Torah should be kept or not.

I know this was addressed to someone else, so pardon my intervening.. but where did Jesus say that we should keep the whole Torah? Where does it say we have to follow all 613 Mitzvot of the Torah?

He gave us the commands we should follow and there weren't 613 of them! His yoke is sweet and His burden is light.

Galatians 5:1 "Stand fast, and be not held again under the yoke of bondage."

Here's a list of the 613 Mitzvot. While I can see obeying some of them, all of them.. a resounding no if you're a Christian.

List of the 613 Mitzvot

Do you agree with the law that says it is okay to charge interest to Gentiles, but not to an Israelite?

Do you keep all 613 of these?

Excellent question. Bump to 568.

You should study up on the 613 mitzvot. Even Jews don't keep all 613 mitzvot. When you exclude all the laws that pertain to the land of Israel, pertain to the temple, pertain to women, etc., etc., you're left with 278.
