The law was given to the Jews, and to them only. Gentiles were never under the law of Moses. Moses wrote: “And Moses called all Israel, and said to them, Hear, O Israel, the statutes and judgments which I speak in your hearing today, that you may learn them and be careful to observe them. The Lord our God made a covenant with us in Horeb. The Lord did not make this covenant with our fathers, but with us, those who are here today, all of us who are alive. The Lord talked with you face to face on the mountain from the midst of the fire” (Deuteronomy 5:1-4).
舊約的律法賜給猶太人、而且也只賜給他們而已 . 外邦人從來都不在摩西的律法之下 . 摩西寫著、『摩西將以色列衆人召了來，對他們說、以色列人哪，我今日曉諭你們的律例典章，你們要聽，可以學習，謹守遵行 . 耶和華我們的 神在何烈山與我們立約 . 這約不是與我們列祖立的，乃是與我們今日在這裏存活之人立的 . 耶和華在山上，從火中，面對面與你們說話』 ( 申 5:1-4).
This law that was given to the Jews is no longer in effect. The apostle Paul makes this very clear in several passages of scripture (Ephesians 2:13-16; Colossians 2:14-16; Romans 7:1-7). The Hebrew writer devotes much of the book to show the law of Christ is better than the law of Moses (Hebrews 8:6-13).
這部給猶太人的律法現在也不生效了 . 保羅在一些經節中也強調這點 ( 弗 2:13-16; 西 2:14-16; 羅 7:1-7). 希伯來書的作者用了大篇幅證明基督的律法比摩西的律法更好 ( 來 8:6-13).

Cast Out Which One? (vs. 30) 哪個趕出去 ? (30 節 )
The old law is cast out. We are now under the new law, the law of Christ. All of the above passages tell us no one is under the law of Moses. We are now under the law of Christ. Once again, there are a number of passages that tell us we are under the law of Christ, not the law of Moses (Matthew 7:21-23; 17:5; 28:18-20; John 12:48; Galatians 6:2).
舊約是被趕出去的 . 我們目前在基督的律法下 . 上面的一些經節都告訴我們、現在沒有人在摩西的律法之下 . 我們現在在基督的律法之下 . 再者、有很多經節告訴我們我們是在基督的律法之下、而不在摩西的律法之下 ( 太 7:21-23; 17:5; 28:18-20; 約 12:48; 加 6:2).
Even though people are no longer under the Old Testament law, there is still much we can learn from its pages. Paul tells us: “For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope” (Romans 15:4). “Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.... Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come” (1 Corinthians 10:6,11).
雖然現在沒有人在舊約的律法之下、我們還是從舊約中能夠學習很多 . 保羅告訴我們:『從前所寫的聖經都是爲教訓我們寫的，叫我們因聖經所生的忍耐和安慰可以得著盼望』 ( 羅 15:4). 『這些事都是我們的鑒戒，叫我們不要貪戀惡事，像他們那樣貪戀的；他們遭遇這些事，都要作爲鑒戒； 並且寫在經上，正是警戒我們這末世的人』 ( 林前 10:6,11).
Without the Old Testament we would not be able to understand many passages in the New Testament. When the New Testament mentions Old Testament characters, if we did not have the Old Testament, we would not be able to understand the point made in the New Testament. The Old Testament reveals from where the universe, sin, nations, and languages came. When Jesus said, “Remember Lot's wife,” if we did not have the Old Testament, we would not know who was Lot's wife, or why we should remember her.
我們沒有舊約的話、就不會明白很多新約的經節 . 新約提到舊約裏的人、如果我們對舊約不熟、就沒有辦法明白新約的意思 . 舊約告訴我們宇宙、罪、國家、和語言的起源 . 耶穌說、『你們要回想羅得的妻子』時、如果我們沒有舊約的話、我們不會知道羅得的妻子是 誰、或我們爲什麽應該記注她 .
All of the Bible came from God, but His law for us today is found in the New Testament.
聖經全部都是由 神而來的、但是祂今日給我們的律法就都在新約裏面 .
