    (asking as an atheist)

    Does this include laws that are no longer applicable because of Jesus’ covenant?

        He also strongly implied that a not-insignificant part of the old “law” were cultural traditions and compromises, rather than directives from god.

        First see, this.
        Matthew 22:34-40

        Then this.
        Mark 7:1-13

        And then this.
        Matthew 19:3-8

        He was very clear that what he laid out in Matthew 22:34-40 was the summary of all law, and that any and all others must be derived from that. If they do not, it is just a tradition.

          That depends on how literal ome takes the Bible. Some of that is highly contested depending on what domination you’re in.
