It is Jesus’ Law of Love that perfects the Mosaic Covenant. Only meant to bring good out of bad, so He preaches with positive terms instead of negative “no this” and “no that” that perfects the teachings within the Decalogue.

The Passion of Christ is the suffering and trial He must endure during His Agony, His Crowning of Thorns, His March with the Cross, and His ultimate Crucifixion. It ends moments before His death when He prays for the healing and reparation of the sins of even those who killed Him.
