Do we Christians today pay only lip service to God with our worship and praise? That was the exact issue that Jesus took with the Pharisees and Scribes as recorded in Matthew 15. As Jesus rejects the authority of their tradition, He infuriates them with His accusation of their Rabbinic traditions making null and void the Commands of God through Holy Scripture.

This lesson takes a look at the mindset and foundation of the elevation of Rabbinic tradition (as recorded in the Talmud) over that of the revealed Holy Scriptures from Yahweh God.
