We may have been looking at things from the wrong direction and working backwards from an assumption about the Law. Can we see what the Law itselfsays? Consider Deuteronomy 4:2, 12:32, 13:5, 30:15-16, and 11:1.

Who are TorahCentric?TorahCentric is about seeking to do what the Creator has asked and about searching for His truth according to the text of His law. We want to move beyond traditions, such as the traditions of Christianity, Orthodox, Messianic, Samaritan, and Karaite Judaism and try to look at what the text actually says. The text exists for a reason, and that reason is not just for the sake of justifying tradition or personal biases.
What is Jewish Law?Jewish Law (Halakha) is the collective body of Jewish religious laws derived from the written and Oral Torah. Halakha is based on biblical commandments (mitzvot), subsequent Talmudic and rabbinic law, and the customs and traditions compiled in the many books such as the Shulchan Aruch. Halakha is often translated as "Jewish law", although a more literal translation might be "the way to behave" or "the way of walking". The word derives from the root that means "to behave" (also "to go" or "to walk"). Halakha guides not only religious practices and beliefs, but also numerous aspects of day-to-day life.
