Another Question

This is the part that impacted me so much yesterday:
The Scripture:
Matthew 5:17-19

Think not that I [Yahshua] am come to destroy the law,
or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill ..
Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise
pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall
break one of these least commandments, and shall
teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven.



Now, however, This presents ANOTHER QUESTION:

What was JESUS speaking of when HE said, "
....till  ALL be fulfilled..."

was that ALL refering to ...till ALL THE LAW  would be fulfilled  (which HE did at the cross-right?)

OR was HE refering to ...till ALL THINGS WHATSOEVER be fulfilled ?

I had always understood it to mean the first,
but what about the second: I mean, because HE stated in there:

                 
                     "Till heaven and earth pass,..."

Input?  Anybody?

Well......personally, I think He is referring to both.  That the law is the main theme of the passage, but the secondary theme is that all things.....the course God knows the world is gonna play out....must come to pass also.  -  Barbara
