How Jesus Transforms the Ten Commandments – The Covenant Lord Fulfils the Law

The author says that the ten commandments are a treaty document, and as such were written to define and secure the nature, character, and calling of Israel as the people of God.

Clowney considers the significance of this fulfilment in Christ.
