7. The Law – including the Feasts – was a Pedagogue, leading to Christ.

[asterisktom]

The Old Covenant Law Paul referred to as a “pedagogue” (παιδαγωγὸς) that leads to Christ. What an important word – yet difficult to precisely translate. The first part of the word is “child”. And that is what the Old Covenant era was, Israel’s childhood. And the New Covenant was, to borrow a title from Arthur C. Clarke, childhood’s end.

"Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone that believes." - Rom. 10:4
