Excerpt from The Laws of the Kingdom, Vol. 14 Ception on the point. It was rumoured, and part 1. Several things gave colour to the rumour, that general the new Prophet's teaching was essentially de principle structive - hostile to, and meant to subvert, the good old system of law and rite delivered to the fathers through the hand of Moses.
