Christ kept them all
---
Galatians 4:4) But when the full limit of the time arrived, God sent forth his Son, who came to be out of a woman and who came to be under law,
Jesus was under law as was the nation of Israel.
(Psalm 147:19, 20) He is telling his word to Jacob, His regulations and his judicial decisions to Israel. 20?He has not done that way to any other nation; And as for [his] judicial decisions, they have not known them. Praise Jah, YOU people!
No other nation "came to be under law" hence it becomes necessary to discern the principles contained in the law in order to please God.
Was the old covenant a failure? Not at all. True, since it was now replaced, fleshly Israel was no longer God’s special people. (Matthew 23:38) But that was because of Israel’s disobedience and rejection of Jehovah’s Anointed One. (Exodus 19:5; Acts 2:22, 23) Before the Law was replaced, however, it accomplished much. For centuries, it provided a way of approach to God and protection from false religion. It contained foregleams of the new covenant and, with its repeated sacrifices, demonstrated man’s desperate need of redemption from sin and death. Indeed, the Law was a “tutor leading to Christ.” (Galatians 3:19, 24; Romans 3:20; 4:15; 5:12; Hebrews 10:1, 2) However, it was through the new covenant that the blessing promised to Abraham would be realized in full.
