Can you please explain how saying "moral law" indicates it is "somehow" greater than others?
Let me briefly explain the difference...If God made a law as pertaining to HOW Israel was to be run as a nation, under a king. That is a law pertaining to governance....get that?
If God makes another law that says "you shall not murder" that is a moral law.
One related to personal morality and the other to running a nation.
You asked about where the bible expresses this teaching that the law of Moses has these divisions, yet you pretty much admitted these divisions existed. So are we in agreement here?
Before we move on to other issues, let's make sure we understand what foundations we are in agreement on
