Adam was created on the sixth day, was he then given six days to complete his work as the law says? The seventh day was the day after Adam was created. Do you understand your question?
The written law did not exist at the time of Adam.

The law is spiritual.
Yet the written law still did not exist in written form until Mt Sinai.

I think the idea that the law is spiritual means that the law is telling you. Both what love is not; for example murder, and what love is all about; for example loving your brother as you love yourself.

I do not think that individual laws are spiritual, the essence of the law is spiritual and is love.
For example a law against eating a bacon sandwich is certainly not a spiritual law in itself.

The law in it's entirety is a shadow of the revelation of the Christ. God is love!

The law is not a shadow. The law HAS some shadows contained within it (Hebrews 10:1).

The law is not a shadow. The law HAS some shadows contained within it (Hebrews 10:1).

And the law is considered a light:

Proverbs 6:23
For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light. Reproofs of instruction are the way of life

That is the difference in how we read the scripture. You have 603 shadow laws and I have 613 shadow laws.

You call 603 laws, 'some shadows', which does not make sense. You claim that over 99% of the laws given at Mt Sinai are shadow laws, that is not 'some' shadows by any measure.

Where did I say that? 603?? How did you arrive at that number? BTW, I do not subscribe to the supposed 613 laws and there are a whole lot more than 613 in the NT.

The majority of the shadows in the law are animal sacrifices. Some are Feast Days that are either fulfilled or unfulfilled.

What about food laws?

What about civil laws?

What about health laws?

What about the other moral laws?
