The letter of the law

The Jews bringing Jesus before Pilate were so focused on fulfilling the letter of the law that they refused to enter the Gentile palace so that they could still observe the Passover.  And yet, they missed the larger picture of what the law was all about, and the fact that Jesus was the fulfillment of the law.

Do we get too caught up in trying to do good works in order to appear righteous, or are we focusing on truly being more like Christ?
