>> “This is untrue. Hebrews Chapter 9 and the first verse of Chapter 10 shows that it is the Torah ordinances that are spoken of here and not the extra-Biblical manmade laws. You do know of the New Covenant, do you not?” <<

Nonsense !!!!!!!

Hebrews 9 is Paul’s explanation of the difference between the temporary value of animal sacrifice, and the perfect effective value of Yeshua’s once and for all sacrifice.

The use of the word “ordinances” here has nothing to do with its use WRT the Pharisees.

Apples and grains of rice is your comparison.

Let's see "foods, drinks, washings and fleshly ordinances".
Sounds like material things after all. Whereas The Ten Commandments deals with our responsibility to God and our fellow man. They are separate. One is finished and the other is forever.

"Apples and grains of rice is your comparison."
Indeed. You just can't let go of the grains of rice. Let it go.
