Passage Matthew 5:17-19:

Christ Came to Fulfill the Law

¹⁷^(A) "Do not think that I have come to abolish^(B) the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but^(C) to fulfill them. ¹⁸For truly, I say to you,^(D) until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. ¹⁹^(E) Therefore whoever relaxes^(F) one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least^(G) in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
