Torah and a flesh-and-blood person

From Ben16's recent book, Jesus of Nazareth, p. 148 and p. 169.
The Decalogue is not, as we have seen, some burden imposed upon man from the outside. It is a revelation of the essence of God himself... and hence it is an exegesis of the truth of our being.

...Jesus, who is himself God's living Torah.


This reminds me of John's gospel, chapter 1, which we read in mid-July.
