Truth and Law

Montgomery (July 24, 1986)
What would you say about saying, “the highest Truth,” instead of the highest Law? I know this raises a lot of questions, so I will not pursue it further. “Truth,” to the modern ear, is something absolutely sacred and inviolable; a law, on the other hand, can be broken. In the Christian New Testament, the Law is always inferior to the Truth.

Murano (August 31, 1988)
I follow the example of the Four Noble Truths, and interpret a truth as a countable common noun, and treat the Law as the collective name for the various truths. This may be different from the usage of the Christian concepts.
