The Law that Jesus and most of the people that are recorded in the Gospels practised was the Law of Moses. They were the people that had recognised the revelation by God of his will for mankind. They were the chosen people. 

The Hebrews is a deeply thoughtful encounter between the Old and the New. Jesus in his three years of human life was the perfect example of the life God wills for us to live. It is the faultless "playbook", faultless "code" that each of has to chose for himself and attempt to programme into our beings. 

We are the natural intelligence that has nothing artificial about it. Animals are perfect in what they are for they are pre-programmed to be. They are what they are by the will of God but we have to choose for ourselves from the many roads and "codes" open to us the ones that will lead us to the perfection of being that has been revealed.

Jesus had started his mission in Nazareth but left the household of his extended family and come to Capernaum. Although they had been displeased by the crowds that had immediately flocked around the "healer"that Jesus was instantly perceived to be, they still knew him as their brother and Mary knew a lot more. So, having heard about what was happening in Capernaum, they went there to see him.

There is one criterion for being in the Jesus' family. We know that we should always choose to do the will of Father, Son and Holy Spirit and to enable us to do this Jesus the Resurrection, the High Priest and Perfect Sacrifice is with us till the end of time to take away the sins of the world.

Dear Lord help me not to be pleased with myself and know that actions are always more than words.All that I am and do are known to you and I pray that the sincerity that I feel in my heart is not phony and that I can avoid the sins that once committed stay within my skull even though they are forgiven. I know that your Mother was not rejected by you in Capernaum and that she stayed close to you even to the end and she is still with you and all your saints in the bliss of eternal worship. May her prayers be heard and your mercy overflow the Holy Souls and sinners here on earth.
