What Happens in This Episode?

This Jesus Stories episodes begin to go deeply into Jesus’ teaching regarding the honoring of the Law and the Prophets. Jesus compares the sayings of the Law – “You have heard it said” – with the intention his Father had for the saying – “But I tell you”. We talk about the commands “do not murder” and “do not commit adultery.” What is Jehovah God really saying in these commands? How does it mean we are to act now?
