>>Jesus was bound by a whole lot of laws that He technically broke<<

Not one that God set down. Only those which the Pharisees had added to or enhanced without God's sanction.

>>Again, your argument is the same as those who condemned Christ in His day.<<

No, it's not. I used what God handed down. They used what they added to what God handed down.

>>Did He sin when He healed on the Sabbath?<<

Christ did an adequate job of explaining that. Read it.

>>Did He sin when He drove the money changers out of the Temple (He wasn't the Chief Priest)?<<

Once again, I believe Jesus explained that quite adequately.

>>Did He sin when technically committed blasphemy at His Trial?<<

No, He did NOT "technically" commit blasphemy.

>>HE IS GOD, the Author of the Law<<

And as God He would never go against His own law. Ergo He neve ate real physical blood.

>>I have shown you why we are not to eat the blood of others... because the life is in the blood...<<

ALL blood both of sacrifices and animals for food was to be spilled on the ground as Christ's was on Calvary. NOT to be eaten. It was the information, God's word, which was contained on those scrolls and it is the information of God's word that is to be internalized not His physical blood.

You are stubborn. TWICE, Scripture tells you WHY you are not eat the blood and in both cases it is because the life is in the blood. Let's step forward in the New Testament to St Paul, who wasn't present at the Last Supper but was given the command to share the Last Supper in his ministry:

1 Cor 11: 23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:

24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, this cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.

27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
