The disciples followed the traditions of their people until Jesus called them to a different path. They faced criticism and scorn because they choose to follow the law fulfilled in Christ rather than elevate the law itself above everything. As we follow that path we also have to make sure we are choosing what really matters for salvation and don't get hung up on the wrong things in the name of faith.
