    it's His Law, Not Moses's, Jehovah's,
    -----------
    Taughtbuffet, the Law is spoken of as the Law of Moses repeatedly in God's inspired Word.
    (Ezra 3:2) Jesh′u·a the son of Je·hoz′a·dak and his fellow priests and Ze·rub′ba·bel the son of She·al′ti·el and his brothers rose up and built the altar of the God of Israel, so that they could offer up burnt sacrifices on it, as it is written in the Law of Moses the man of the true God.
    (Ezra 6:18) And they appointed the priests in their groups and the Levites in their divisions for the service of God in Jerusalem, according to what is written in the book of Moses.
    (Ezra 7:6) This Ez′ra came up from Babylon. He was a copyist who was well-versed in the Law of Moses, which Jehovah the God of Israel had given. The king granted everything he requested, for the hand of Jehovah his God was upon him
    Jesus taught it as something binding on those under Law as was Jesus himself.
    (Matthew 8:4) Then Jesus said to him: “See that you tell no one, but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses appointed, for a witness to them.”
    (Galatians 4:4) But when the full limit of the time arrived, God sent his Son, who was born of a woman and who was under law,
    Jesus confirmed that Moses had authority yo make concessions.
    (Matthew 19:7, 8) They said to him: “Why, then, did Moses direct giving a certificate of dismissal and divorcing her?” He said to them: “Out of regard for your hard-heartedness, Moses made the concession to you of divorcing your wives, but that has not been the case from the beginning.
    He did not separate the Law into 2 parts as has been claimed.
    (Mark 7:10) For example, Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘Let the one who speaks abusively of his father or mother be put to death.’
    It is spoken of both as the Law of Moses & the Law of Jehovah showing ALL of the Law was binding to those "under Law" (Galatians 4:4), but not for those not having Moses as mediator.
    (Luke 2:22-24) Also, when the time came for purifying them according to the Law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to Jehovah,  just as it is written in Jehovah’s Law: “Every firstborn male must be called holy to Jehovah.”  And they offered a sacrifice according to what is said in the Law of Jehovah: “a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.”
    Taughtbuffet, why is the Law covenant called the FORMER covenant if it is still valid?
    (Hebrews 9:1) For its part, the former covenant used to have legal requirements for sacred service and its holy place on earth.
