Jeremiah does not call the Law God was going to put in the inward parts of covenant Israel and Judah "Messianic" Law. The only Law that was in existence was the Law of God (or Moses.) In other words, the Holy Spirit is THAT LAW which God was going to put in the inward parts of covenant Israel and Judah - both kingdoms being identified as those with whom God makes New Covenant with. There are no Gentiles mentioned or named in the New Covenant Jeremiah prophesied. So, clearly you are adding to the prophecy of Jeremiah when you claim Gentiles are mentioned as being included in the New Covenant Jeremiah prophesied.
The Law God said to Israel and Judah He was going to put in the inward parts of His covenant people is His Law, or the Law He gave to Moses to give to the children of Israel at Mount Sinai. The Moral Law still exists. The Social Law still exists. The Ceremonial Law also exists but with a spiritual interpretation. The command to "not have other gods before thee (Israel)" still exists and we must obey it. But at the same time our justification (being declared "Not Guilty!") by God fulfills Jeremiah's prophecy where God says:
For I will forgive their iniquity,
And I will remember their sin no more.
Jeremiah 31:34.
...refers to Israel and Judah's justification. Through Jesus' fulfilling the Ceremonial Law is the basis of Israel's forgiveness and God remembering their sin no more. This was done on the cross of Christ. Now the Holy Spirit is sanctifying Israel and Judah every day while alive as was begun on the Jewish Feast of Harvest, also known as Pentecost, in which three thousand Jews were born-again of the Spirit. Thousand more every day were being born-again by God's Spirit who was Promised to Israel and Judah as Peter brings to their memory through this passage:
Peter is speaking to the twelve tribes of Israel present in his audience.
38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. Acts 2:38–39.
Peter is not addressing Gentiles for Gentiles have no part in the Mosaic Covenant and the feasts that was being observed and celebrated that day when the Holy Spirit of Promise PROMISED TO ISRAEL (by Joel) descended from heaven as a mighty rushing wind. The three thousand people who were born-again were of the twelve tribes that were in Jerusalem for the Passover and for the Feast of Harvest. Mixed-race Jews were also in attendance.
So, in reality, it is YOU who is adding to the Bible. Gentiles have no covenant with God and are in reality God's enemy. They are called "the world" by Jesus' apostles and messengers. John says:
15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. 1 John 2:15–16.
That's very convenient. If it's not chapter and verse, then it is chatter and worse. Believers follow the Word of God and God is consistent in His Word. There is nothing in the Old Testament that supports Gentiles being heirs of the Abrahamic Covenant Promises nor were Gentiles ever under the Law God gave Moses for the children of Israel (Abraham's seed.) This is why Saul says:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. Galatians 4:4–5.
Again, you are adding to the Bible.
Saul's good news (gospel) to Israel is stated in several forms. One is found here:
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:3–4.
Take note Saul backing up his teaching with Scripture. And yet you want to say that Gentiles are included in the Lord's salvation but without Scripture to back you up as you said below:
False "churches" like Mormonism and JW's use that tactic and gain many false worshipers to their ranks.

OK.
Jeremiah 39:8 - The Chaldeans also burned with fire the king’s palace and the houses of the people, and they broke down the walls of Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 36:19 -Then they burned the house of God and broke down the wall of Jerusalem, and burned all its fortified buildings with fire and destroyed all its valuable articles.
Jeremiah 3:16 -It shall be in those days when you are multiplied and increased in the land,” declares the Lord, “they will no longer say, ‘The ark of the covenant of the Lord.’ And it will not come to mind, nor will they remember it, nor will they miss it, nor will it be made again.
You cannot make something again unless it had been destroyed first.

Christ spoke to the "7 synagogues" in Revelation just as Christ spoke to those alive during Noah's building of the Ark.
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
20 Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water. 1 Peter 3:18–20.
Eight souls saved from the flood waters but only one was saved by grace: Noah.
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. Genesis 6:8.
God has been speaking to His people from the moment He said, "Let there be light."
The Church and the Bride are identified in Scripture as Israel.

You want to ask another for Scripture to back their words up and yet you say that Gentiles being saved was what God told the apostles but have no Scripture to back that up.
Why the hypocrisy?
Don't bother answering. We know.
Paul says that the law is death. Jesus completed/fulfilled the Law Himself. What else is there that you believe you must fulfill where Jesus fell short? And no, you don't get to say there is a spiritual interpretation to any of the Law, because that is you telling God how it is.
And then to the non-Jewish Gentiles (ethnos, which refers to race, and mixed race is not considered a race)
Yes, because Gentiles don't want to go to hell. So no, they aren't
I forgot. You decided to tell God that you hold the only meaning of this verse. The world speaks of the Satanic and demonic system of the world. (And yes, apparently, from a Jewish writer, demons are mentioned in the Old Testament under various Hebrew words.
I didn't say that about you, but if that's where you want to go, then...
How many times do I have to remind you that the promise to Abraham, for all the families of the Earth (in which Earth is universal, the whole planet) will be blessed is for the Jews and Gentiles.
And of course, you leave out everything else, such as the book of Galatians was written to the Gentiles (ethnos, which again, is not mixed race races, but race. So, non-Hebrew Gentiles.)
"
44 The next Sabbath nearly the whole city assembled to hear the word of [z]the Lord. 45 But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy and began contradicting the things spoken by Paul, and were [aa]blaspheming. 46 Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and said, “It was necessary that the word of God be spoken to you first; since you repudiate it and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we are turning to the Gentiles. 47 For so the Lord has commanded us,
‘I have placed You as a light for the Gentiles,
That You may [ab]bring salvation to the end of the earth.’”
48 When the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of [ac]the Lord; and as many as had been appointed to eternal life believed. 49 And the word of the Lord was being spread through the whole region. 50 But the Jews incited the [ad]devout women of prominence and the leading men of the city, and instigated a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and drove them out of their [ae]district. 51 But they shook off the dust of their feet in protest against them and went to Iconium. 52 And the disciples were continually filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit."
Ooh, isn't that ethnos, which refers to races, not mixed races? Gentiles? Non-Hebrew Gentiles being saved by Paul, because the Jews blasphemed God?

I don't have to fulfill anything. Jesus did it for me and for every elect person whose name is in the book of life of the lamb slain. And because He is in me through His Holy Spirit God sees me through imputation of His righteousness that I have fulfilled every jot and tittle of the Law and I am justified by God and declared "Not Guilty!" He is my Advocate, He is my Intercessor, He is my Mediator. He paid a debt He did not owe, I owed a debt I could not pay, I needed someone to wash my sins away.
Saul declares the Law is spiritual.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. Romans 7:14.
And because I am carnal (flesh) and the Law spiritual, the Law - Who is the Holy Spirit - killeth. But once I become born-again, I become a spiritual man, and the Law cannot touch me for several reasons. One is that Jesus paid the debt He did not owe on my behalf and once the Holy Spirit of Promise PROMISED TO ISRAEL - dwells within me the seal of God has marked me for salvation. I was saved (past), I am saved (present), and I will be saved (future.)
Natural Olive tree Israel has become spiritual Olive tree Israel on that Pentecost when the Holy Spirit of Promise came down from heaven as a mighty rushing wind and I am marked by God for eternal salvation. We never know whose name is written in the book of the lamb slain, but we are commanded to test the spirits (of men) to discern whether one is of God for the Spirit bears witness with my spirit and through His Spirit I am to discern the Spirit in another person to know who else is of God and that brethren is to receive everything God has given to me for them so that they may benefit from my gifts and I benefit from theirs as God takes us from glory to glory in the knowledge of Him. Now, through the Holy Spirit I am equipped by God for it is my spirit that is the candle of the Lord so I may give light to everyone who is in the house(hold) of God. Knowing who I am in the Lord, knowing my gifts, my call, my office, and my pounds and talents I exercise my blessings to and for ONLY my brethren so that I might not give that which is holy to dogs nor cast my pearls to swine, but all God gives me is for the benefit of my brethren. And ONLY my brethren.
So, yes, the Law is spiritual and so am I and what was once only letter is now become spiritual and comes with a spiritual interpretation of the Law once written in stone, and parchment, and vellum, and papyrus is also written on fleshly tables of my heart. I am a living epistle under command of the Lord to "Let the word of Christ dwell in [me] richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in my heart to the Lord" (Col 3:16.) There is a new dimension to my life, and it is that I have become born-again and became a spiritual being restored to a trichotomy of body, soul, human spirit filled with the Holy Spirit.
Gentiles as unbelievers don't care about heaven or hell. They are blind leading the blind and both and all fall into the ditch. Men do not seek God. For this is the condemnation, that light [CHRIST] is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light [CHRIST], because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light [CHRIST], neither cometh to the light [CHRIST], lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light [CHRIST], that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. (John 3:19–21.)
There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. (Romans 3:11.) for no one looks for God for they love darkness rather than light (Christ.) Neither do the come to the light so that they may be saved because as Martin Luther has said, men are in bondage to sin. Their will is in bondage to sin and if the stronger man (Christ) is not binding the strong man in their lives they will not be saved for salvation is and comes from the Lord. And only those whose names are written by God in the book of life of the lamb slain shall come to God when their name is called by God. If there's no calling by God, then men will not come. But every man who is called of the Lord shall come and God makes them willing to come when the strong man in their lives (SIN) is bound by the stronger man who is Christ. There is no such thing as "accept Jesus into your heart. There is no such thing as altar call for when the Spirit of God acts upon an elect person then that man (and/or woman) shall come when called. God saves through covenant and those who are in covenant - both the House of Israel and the House of Judah - have the Lord Jesus Christ as their Savior and will come to Him when called. Everyone else, every non-Hebrew Gentile that are outside the Promises of God shall never be saved for Christ died for Israel. He did not die for the uncircumcised, non-covenant, non-Hebrew Gentile that are NOT in covenant with God.
Demons are the evil attitudes/spirits of men. It is a mental condition. ALL the angels that sinned are locked up awaiting judgment and there are no sinful angels in the world today making people to sin. God locked them all up in darkness awaiting judgment. The only thing in the world today is saved individuals and unsaved individuals and the sin in the world comes from them. Born once, die twice. Born twice, die once. That is the only reality among men in the world today. Every "demon-" possessed men in the New Covenant writings whom Jesus saved were Hebrew and the first thing Jesus had to subdue was their attitudes, their evil human spirits, and every Hebrew or mixed-race Hebrew Jesus saved required an attitude adjustment. This is the attitudes the Jews had to deal with when Jesus said, "by whom did their fathers cast out these spirits." Unsaved men are not casting out Satan from other unsaved men. These are merely human spirits, or attitudes, that govern men's lives that are in focus. And such attitudes or spirits of men are the thieves that kill, steal, and destroy when left unchecked by God.
God has deemed all men but there are other men who are re-deemed by Christ and have their sins paid for by Christ that are chosen to salvation. Only those who are in covenant relationship with God are the elect and chosen of God. The Lord knows them that are His. They are waiting to be born into this world at the appointed time, and born-again at another appointed time.
The families of the earth that are blessed of God are those who are the seed of Abraham ONLY. One group is blessed, and one group is blessed and possess the Promises of God. To declare that ALL mankind has the blessings of God upon them would include that family from whom the man of sin is born from, including the man of sin also. Is the man of sin blessed of God? Is that your theology? It flies in the face of God to believe such a doctrine of demons that you espouse. Antichrist is blessed of God as also the man of sin according to your false teaching. The Scripture does not teach Universalism. The only families that are blessed of God are the families of the earth that are the seed of Abraham. For it is Abraham's Promised seed (Isaac, Jacob/Israel, and the twelve tribes/families that are ABOVE all the families that are not in covenant with God as Moses says here:
6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth. Deuteronomy 7:6.
And that is what God told Moses to say and to write. God was speaking to the children of Israel NOT everybody. You take what was given to Israel (the Holy Spirit, the Covenant Promises, the Word of God, the Christ, etc.), and you change truth for lie and give these 'things' to Gentiles. But that is what non-Hebrew Gentiles do. They take that which is Holy and give them to an unholy people - Gentiles. You insert Gentiles where God was speaking to Israel. It's called Inheritance Theft. And Gentiles have stolen - or before God, attempt - to steal that which God has given to Israel and make it apply to Gentiles. The Old Testament identifies Israel as betrothed to God and are His Bride and make it apply to Gentiles. You take the identity of the Hebrew people as a great congregation and make Church of God to change it into Gentile. You take the Church of Hebrews born-again by His Spirit and replace Israel with Gentiles when Scripture says that the Church Jesus Promised to build is populated by Jews, thousands and thousands born-of-God each day such as the three thousand Jews born-again on the Jewish Feast of Harvest, also called Pentecost and replace Jews with Gentiles and change the Word of God.
The New Covenant writings by Jews and change it to make it apply to Gentiles such as what you say and do above.
The New Covenant writings from Matthew to Revelation was written to the Jews and Jewish Christians but you replace Jews with Gentile and claim Galatians was written to Gentiles. Gentiles were never under the Law, never under a schoolmaster (Gal. 3.)
God made NO COVENANT with non-Hebrew Gentiles. As I said, you take what belongs to Israel and Abraham's seed and make it apply to Gentiles. And STILL no one can post an Old Testament passage that says Gentiles are in covenant with God the same that Israel is in covenant with God. Not only does God have covenant with Abram the Hebrew and his Hebrew seed but we have the name of the Hebrew (Abraham) with whom God has made covenant with. And on top of that we have Abraham's seed in Isaac that God records His dealings with Abraham's son in the Pentateuch. Isaac and Jacob and Jacob's twelve sons and their families that are recorded in the Pentateuch by Moses. Then we have the "minor" prophets with the "major" prophets who record their prophecies which are prophecies given to Israel and NOT Gentiles. God records His dealings with the Hebrew people beginning in Genesis all the way through Revelation. These writings were given to Israel all the way from Genesis to John's Revelation and they tell the story of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and Jacob's twelve sons and their families and they continue the story of the Hebrew people. They are NOT a record of Gentiles for God made no covenant with Gentiles. They are a record of God's dealings with the Hebrew people, the great congregation Church in the desert at the time of the Tabernacle and Temples and synagogues, and Jewish homes where true, Biblical Christians gathered to discuss the prophets and the Hebrew men and women of God that had ministry to the Hebrew people.
Now, show me the Scripture from the Old Testament that shows God made salvation covenant with Gentiles, and tell me that Gentile persons' name. Even Jonah's prophecies was written to the Hebrew children of Israel - NOT to Gentiles.
These things took place among Jews and Jewish Christians and mixed-race Jews who are the descendants of the Jewish Diaspora, they are Jews and mixed-race Jews who were scattered among the Gentiles and in their 'regions.'
The bottom line is you add to the Bible. You take that which was given to the twelve tribes of Israel and make it apply to Gentiles. The only Gentile that the Scripture identifies as Gentile (mixed-race) are those of mixed-race heritage who grew up Gentile in Gentile lands as they were scattered by God among the Gentiles.
As long as a person is of the seed of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob's and Jacob's twelve sons they are in covenant with God.
God made no covenant with non-Hebrew Gentiles.
None at all.
Thus, the covenants and the Word of God belong to the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and are also called the children of Israel even up to today. Genesis to Revelation was written by Jews and mixed-race Jews (Luke, etc.)

Another scripture that speaks of the Church that applies to 1 Pet 2:9
9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;
Its Eph 1:14 when speaking of the Church comprised of both jew and gentile believers in Ephesus
Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.
Now what is the purchased possession ? Why its the Church, bought with a price, as here Acts 20:28
28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
Now the words purchased possession in Eph 1:14 is the same word for " a peculiar people " in 1 Pet 2:9, now how so that ? Because they're the same exact people ! 7

The primary source for Peter's reference of the Old Testament is Exodus 19:6. Moses was identifying the children of Israel to whom God's Word to Moses for the children of Israel is to and for Israel:
5 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
6 And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel. Exodus 19:5–6.
Peter is speaking about the children of Israel who are also called the "Great Congregation" and a people "called out" (Greek: ekklesias = "church") of the darkness of their bondage in Egypt.
The original context and reference are the children of Israel. You cannot take Moses' words and Peter's reference to them and make it apply to Gentiles.
The New Covenant Church is populated with Jews and mixed-race Jews. In Jerusalem when the Holy Spirit of Promise PROMISED TO ISRAEL descended upon the eleven disciples in the upper room and while Peter was addressing the twelve tribes of Israel that were his audience Peter brings up prophesies by Joel and David, Peter begins by addressing the crowd's confusion, explaining that the miraculous speaking in tongues was the fulfillment of prophecy.
Peter referencing Joel Acts 2:17-21 quotes Joel in his prophecy found in Joel 2:28-32.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward,
That I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh;
And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Joel 2:28.
Peter identifies David as a prophet (Acts 2:30) and uses his writings to prove that the Messiah had to rise from the dead. He quotes David twice:
Regarding the resurrection:
Scripture says in Acts 2:25-28 David is quoting Psalms 16: 8-11.
10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell;
Neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
Psalms 16:10.
Regarding the Ascension and Session Peter says in Acts 2:34-35 quotes Psalms 110:1
1 The LORD said unto my Lord,
Sit thou at my right hand,
Until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Psalms 110:1.
Peter uses these two prophets to build a logical bridge for his Hebrew audience:
1. Joel proves that the supernatural signs they are seeing are from God's Spirit.
2. David proves that the Messiah must be resurrected and exalted to the right hand of God.
To explain this from a strict exegetical (drawing the meaning out of the text) and hermeneutical (interpreting the context) perspective using the KJV, you would focus on the immediate audience, the specific pronouns used, and the covenantal structure of the book of Joel.
Here's how the argument (position) is made:
1. The Immediate Context (The Who):
Exegesis begins by identifying the audience. In Joel 2, the prophet is addressing a specific nation facing a specific crisis (a locust plague and impending judgment).
- Joel 2:1: "Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble..."
- Joel 2:17: "Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach..."
Exegesis begins by identifying the audience. In Joel 2, the prophet is addressing a specific nation facing a specific crisis (a locust plague and impending judgment).
Joel 2:1: "Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble..."
Joel 2:17: "Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach..."
The "people" and "heritage" in context are exclusively the house of Israel. There is no mention of the surrounding heathen nations receiving anything other than judgment at this point in the chapter.
2. The Use of Possessive Pronouns:
The phrase "all flesh" in verse 28 is qualified by the specific pronouns that follow. Hermeneutically, a general term ("all flesh") is often limited by its immediate descriptors.
"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and YOUR sons and YOUR daughters shall prophesy, YOUR old men shall dream dreams, YOUR young men shall see visions:" (Joel 2:28)
Exegesis: The "all flesh" is defined by the four categories that follow: your sons, your daughters, your old men, and your young men.
The "Your": In the Hebrew and the KJV translation, the "your" refers back to the "children of Zion" mentioned in verse 23. If "all flesh" meant every human being on earth (Gentiles included), the specific possessive "your" (referring to Israel) would be grammatically out of place.
3. The Distinction in Verse 27:
Just one verse prior to the "all flesh" promise, God defines the relationship that precedes the pouring out of the Spirit:
"And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed." (Joel 2:27.)
By saying "I am the Lord your God, and none else," the text creates a closed circle. The "afterward" in verse 28 refers to what happens to that specific group (Israel) once they have been restored to their God.
4. The term "All Flesh" in Old Testament Usage:
Hermeneutically, "all flesh" (kol-bāśār) does not always mean "every human on the planet." It often refers to "all types of people within a specific group."
Example: In Joel 2:29, he even includes "servants" and "handmaids."
The Argument: The "all" indicates a demographic shift, not a geographic or ethnic one. Under the Old Covenant, the Spirit was usually given to specific individuals (kings, priests, prophets). Joel is prophesying a day when the Spirit would be poured out upon all ranks of Israelites—regardless of age (old/young), gender (sons/daughters), or social status (servants).
5. Addressing Peter in Acts 2:
"And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven."
Peter addresses them as "Ye men of Judaea" (v. 14) and "Ye men of Israel" (v. 22). From a strict Joel-centric perspective, Peter is seeing the Spirit fall upon the remnant of Israel gathered for the feast, fulfilling the promise to "your sons and your daughters."
INCORRECT.
The "earnest of our inheritance" refers to the Holy Spirit of Promise PROMISED TO ISRAEL.
He is a "down payment" anticipating the 'day' when after our bodies are changed in the twinkling of an eye at Christ's coming, we experience the full and total 'filling' and Presence of the LORD of Hosts in our vessels, in our 'inward parts' (Jer. 31:33.)
Once we are changed and made eternal, we are able to possess and contain the Eternal Spirit within ourselves. But for now, we are only given a "measure" or "portion" of the Holy Spirit against that Day. As Scripture says, "No flesh shall glory in His Presence." Thus, our flesh now is still flesh and this body shall die for corruption shall put on incorruption and in the Law, it says - that same Law you teach is abolished and made obsolete, and is no longer in effect, but it is not; the Law is given to us for it is inspired of God for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness so that we may live holy lives before God
21 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people;
1 Corinthians 14:21.
"In the Law it is written." "In the Law it is written." God's Word is Eternal. It is alive and God uses it to lead and guide us to greener pastures, to correction and reproof, for it is meat to my bones and milk to my flesh. I cannot live without God's Law. It is His revelation of Himself to us and in it I mirror what it says about me to my God.
The Law has 187 chapters.
The Law has 5,852 verses.
The Law has 156,664 words.
The Law has 609,247 letters.
And all the Law is inspired by God.
I thank God the Law was NOT abolished or made obsolete.
97 O how love I thy law!
It is my meditation all the day.
Psalms 119:97.
It's too bad you can't say the same.
