What does Jesus teach about the law?

In His teachings, particularly in Matthew 23:1-2, Jesus emphasizes the importance of the law while warning against the hypocritical practices of its teachers. He acknowledges the validity and authority of the law, stating that it must be followed. However, He points out that mere external compliance without internal transformation is insufficient. By fulfilling the law through His perfect obedience, Jesus provides a way for believers to approach the law with the understanding that He is both its ultimate purpose and fulfillment.
