no the laws were given to the jews to remind them that they needed a sacrifice to cover over their sins and this was done when jesus christ came to the earth and died a sacrificial death.
its a pity that they didnt listen thou because theyre still waiting for a messiah.so when jesus died his death ended the law.

Who? What? Where? and When? Well ha ha I do believe that the 10 Commandments was handed to Moses or Moshe', he was a hebrew and they were given the laws by G-D and he chose them to be his loyal followers, I mean figuring they were the most oppressed and would appreciate a leg up in the situation after so many years of slavery? But then the order of philosophy was written in Hebrew and Aramaic, Genesis, and the Dead Sea Scrolls are Hebrew, and those in fact are in the old testament and some things are revised and carried into the New Testament through Jesus who was a Jewish Rabbi who only reformed the laws of Judaism to teach the everyone that his father and ours was letting us off the hook from all the severity, and to better forgive than to hate and harm others, etc., So yeah I think you would say that we are most definately under the laws of G-d, and they are the original Jewish laws combined with the New Jewish teachings of Jesus. They never should have separated the books anyway, just another way to oppress and make politics a part of religion, and to rule in blasphemy. Politics plays havoc on the truth, and it has no business in religion. Happy New Year

Who is "we"?
What are "Jewish laws"? Are you refering to laws written by Jews? Like rabbinic laws?
Or are you refering to laws that are practiced by Jews? Or are you refering to the commands given in Torah to all of Israel (not just the tribe of Judah)?
Your question needs much more definition.
You wanted some verses. Okay here are some:
1 John 3:4 Everyone who commits sin also violates the Law, for sin is violation of the Law.
Romans 6:1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
Matthew 5:17 Do not think that I have come to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to destroy but to fulfill.
18 For truly I say to you, Till the heaven and the earth pass away, not one jot or one tittle shall in any way pass from the law until all is fulfilled.
19 Therefore whoever shall break one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven.
20 For I say to you that unless your righteousness shall exceed that of the Scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of Heaven.
So the Bible defines sin as being the violation of the Law. So your question is whether you are able to sin. Obviously you can sin, the question is: "should you?"

No.
Christians are only subject to the God given authority of the new covenant, universal church.
The old Jewish law never saved anyone anyway, and the only one who ever kept it perfectly was Jesus Christ.
Why would anyone choose an accursed system of laws over the grace and mercy of God?

We are still subject to those laws but, Jesus Christ paid all those debts. Ask Jesus to cover your transgession of those laws.
