The terms of the Law covenant were that if the Israelites kept the covenant they would be a people for the name of Jehovah, a kingdom of priests and a holy nation, with His blessing (Ex 19:5, 6; De 28:1-14); if they violated the covenant, they would be cursed. (De 28:15-68) Its purposes were: to make transgressions manifest (Ga 3:19); to lead the Jews to Christ (Ga 3:24); to serve for a shadow of the good things to come (Heb 10:1; Col 2:17); to protect the Jews from false, pagan religion and preserve the true worship of Jehovah; to protect the line of the seed of promise. Added to the covenant with Abraham (Ga 3:17-19), it organized the natural seed-nation of Abraham through Isaac and Jacob.

The Law covenant extended benefits to others not of natural Israel, for they could become proselytes, getting circumcised, and could receive many of the Law’s benefits.—Ex 12:48, 49.

However, the Law covenant became in a sense “obsolete” when God announced by means of the prophet Jeremiah that there would be a new covenant. (Jer 31:31-34; Heb 8:13) In 33 C.E. the Law covenant was canceled on the basis of Christ’s death on the torture stake (Col 2:14), the new covenant replacing it.—Heb 7:12; 9:15; Ac 2:1-4.

Basically, the Law required the Jews to make sacrifices every time they sinned; this was to remind them of their imperfect sinful state. That no matter how hard they tried, they would never be able to atone for their errors.
When Jesus' gave up his PERFECT life he became a perpetual sacrifice for all sins, thereby fullfilling the requirements of the Law (Hebrews 10:12). Doing so he established a new covenant with us, opening the promises originally bestowed on the Jews to us (2 Corinthians 3:4-6).

He didn't fulfill laws, he fulfilled prophecy. Well over 200 of them. So many that mathematicians have said the chances of them all being fulfilled are over 1/billions. He was born in Bethlehem, His family fled to Egypt, He would be called a Nazarene (where he grew up), He would be born of a virgin, King Herod would kill the young boys trying to kill him, he would come from humble beginnings, He would be from the bloodline of David, He would ride in to Jerusalem on a donkey, He would be pierced, He would rise on the third day, He would follow John the Baptist ("A voice from the wilderness"), etc. etc. etc. There is no one else who could claim to be Christ and fulfill even 20 of the prophesies and he fulfills them all.

he fulfilled all of them....you and me are sinfull people...everyday when we wake up we have a desire to sin all the time we get stupid thought in our head all the time...we worry about stupid things...we get jealous and so on....so we are natural sinners...the law is not going to help us if we are already sinners that is like telling a tiger not to hunt food anymore...how can a tiger stop doing that? that a tigers nature... the bible teaches that the law was given to show how sinfull people were in Romans and when we see how sinfull we are. we will seek god and ask him to help us with our filth in our lifes (or sin)...this is where grace comes in and grace is a free gift by Jesus to get rid of sin in our lives and go to heaven...by gods power alone...and to help us sin less on this earth...

As in Jewish law? All! I am not sure what year it was written but it wasn't until much later after Jesus's death about not following the Jewish law and how the heart is in Torment etc etc.
