Matthew 5:14-19

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁴ “You are the light of the world. A city situated on a hill cannot be hidden.^{(A) 15} No one lights a lamp^(B) and puts it under a basket, but rather on a lampstand, and it gives light for all who are in the house.^{(C) 16} In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.^(D)

Christ Fulfills the Law

¹⁷ “Don’t think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to abolish but to fulfill.^{(E) 18} For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter^[a] or one stroke of a letter will pass away from the law until all things are accomplished. ¹⁹ Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commands and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever does and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.^(F)
