More explanation about New Covenant Literal Application
The New Covenant Literal Application Code (NCLA) is an interpretive guide used by the authors to indicate which person categories a mitzvah applies to, and at what level of literal compliance.
It combines person categories such as Jewish, K'rov Yisrael, and Gentile, together with male/female distinctions and an application level such as mandated, recommended, optional, or prohibited.
This code reflects the authors' interpretive opinion and is provided for prayerful consideration. On this page, the technical code is summarized into plain language to help new readers understand it more easily.
Detailed codes: GFm - Gentile female, mandated | GMm - Gentile male, mandated | JFm - Jewish female, mandated | JMm - Jewish male, mandated | KFm - K'rovat Yisrael female, mandated | KMm - K'rov Yisrael male, mandated

Commentary
Rabbi Michael Rudolph
The Scriptures about rootedness are metaphors of plants and trees that receive their nourishment and stability from their roots. Yeshua says in Revelation 22:16: “I am the root..” Therefore, to be rooted in Yeshua is to be united with him, nourished by him, and spiritually stable through him. Luke 8:13 warns us that those who have no root [presumably in God and Yeshua) will “go on trusting for awhile; but when a time of testing comes, they apostatize.”
