You think it's good that the traditions of the religious leaders over the centuries ended up nullifying the very commandments of God??? You make it sound like the "oral" interpretation of the Torah never changed from when Moses first taught the children of Israel, but we know that wasn't true. In many cases, they were completely flipped around. Case in point:

    You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to human traditions. And he continued, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions! For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and, ‘Anyone who curses their father or mother is to be put to death.’ But you say that if anyone declares that what might have been used to help their father or mother is Corban (that is, devoted to God)— then you no longer let them do anything for their father or mother. Thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that.” (Mark 7:8-13)

So even in Jesus' day the religious teachers were already messing around with the actual commands of God and weaseling around them for their own benefit. Regardless of what you think about Jesus, he was an honest man who knew the Torah better than anyone else ever did. Are you an honest man?

It is good that yoshke was put to death. He is the one who tried to nullify the commandments.

Jesus hated G-d. Jesus hated G-d’s Holy Torah. Jesus hated G-d’s Holy nation. Jesus hated the faithful Jewish Torah scholars. Shall I go on?
