Whoever then annuls one of many least of those commandments, and teaches others to do the identical, shall be known as least within the kingdom of heaven; however whoever retains and teaches them, he shall be known as nice within the kingdom of heaven. For I say to you that except your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you’ll not enter the dominion of heaven.” Profound phrases…” from the Transcript
