| Charles Ryrie--Dispensationalism. | This is why dispensationalists typically will say that the 4th commandment has been abrogated, arguing that it wasn't explicitly restated in the NT as the other 9 were.
Dispensationalism certainly popularized this teaching and it may have originated with dispys. But it goes back further than Ryrie.
