I like the concept of duty.
But then later in the same chapter, he says in v. 27, "It is not good to eat much honey: so for men to search their own glory is not glory."

No, Dick, not all Jews go to hell. Mr. Houdmann said as much on one of his other websites, gotquestions.org. So does shema.com: "Messianic Judaism is a...
