[Jesus pulled the rug out from under the Temple.
The Temple could be described as “the object that brought individuals into organization”. That object was “fulfilling God’s covenant”. That object defined the difference between thinklawful and (projections of) thinkunlawful.
The scribes and the Pharisees knew how to fulfill the covenant. Everyone else did not. Of course, the latter were pathetic morons, fearing accusation, even though they strove to be lawful. These fools may have known, at some level, that they would be accused of thinkunlawful even though they were innocent. The “golden calves” accused them of “intentionally not fulfilling the letter of the law”. In actuality, they were “unintentionally not fulfilling thinklawful’s convoluted interpretation of the law”.
If you understand that, then you can see why these common folk recognized Jesus, the Son of Man, as the Christ. Like Jesus, they stood condemned even while trying to conform to the Law.
This is the structure of all (infra)sovereign religions.
Christ speaks to every one under the rule of sovereigninfra. So did the prophets before him.]
