commands him to do. In this case, it is the same that God is his father. That is why he does nothing but his father‟s command which means that God works through
him. That is why he says that he and God are one.
a. New Concepts of Reinterpretations
It is important to see that Jesus‟ Reinterpretation of anger, revenge, adultery, divorce, vows, Sabbath, King, and the Son of God, must come from a
certain reason. In his Reinterpretation of anger and revenge, Jesus wants to share the concept of forgiving others that evil should not be paid by evil but kindness. In
the case of adultery and divorce, Jesus wants to share the idea of respecting other selves as the creature of Yahweh. In Torah, committing adultery, for any reasons
does not show the respect toward others. This is because committing adultery, in Torah‟s regulation, is equal to take something from someone what he does not
deserve. In this case, to take the sexual pleasure from the one he does not deserve to. It is the same with divorce and remarriage. For Jesus, a marriage is a process
where the human being; male and female become one. It is a sacred thing as it is Yahweh who unites both of them. Hence, no human being can separate Mark
10:6-12. It can be said that they deserve to take sexual pleasure from their husband and wife. The way of separation is called divorce. If they both divorce
and remarriage with another man or woman than it belongs to adultery as their new spouses, according to what Yahweh says, do not deserve to them. Hence,
Jesus wants to share the idea of respecting marriage as the Yahweh‟s effort of uniting man and woman. In the case of Sabbath and the Son of God, Jesus wants
to share the concept of loving each other. In the case of Sabbath, Jesus dares to
heal many people and even let his disciples pick some grains to be eaten during the Sabbath. Here, Jesus wants people to know that Sabbath is not only the day of
rest but to praise Yahweh. The way of praising Yahweh is by saving the life of human being. It is also in the reinterpretation of the Son of God. Jesus wants to
show a close relationship between Yahweh the creator and human beings as the creation. From what Jesus does, he wants to show that Yahweh as the creator
really loves his creation. Yahweh answers the expectations of the Jews for liberation and salvation through Jesus‟ presence. Jesus wants to show that love
and charity of Yahweh is being fulfilled through Jesus himself.
b. Conclusion from New Points of Reinterpretations
From every single reinterpretation Jesus makes, the writer can say that there is a main point he actually wants to share. It is to love others tenderly. By giving
love to others tenderly, someone can do anything like what Jesus tells. To have ability to forgive and pay evil with kindness, ability to respect others, ability to
sacrifice self, someone needs love. Without love, those things can hardly be done. Jesus himself says to his disciples
I love you just as my father loves me.. My commandment is this: love one another, just as love you. The greatest love you can have for your friends
is to give your life for them John15:9, 12-13. From what Jesus says, it is clear that Jesus have a mission for his disciples
to be spread; to love one another. Love, for Jesus, unites not only human being with human being but also with Yahweh. Love goes beyond the thing that
separates human beings and Yahweh.
