"Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill.” (Matt. 5:17)

Whenever the word law was mentioned in the bible, it mainly talked about ‘the law of Moses’ in the Pentateuch.

The law in the Old Testament referred to God’s will, responsibility of man and rules that must be followed. It was not meant to be treated as rigid regulations. Law and morals cannot be separated.
This law originated and was based on the Mount Sinai covenant. After the exile, the institution of law was overshadowed by Egypt , Assyria and Babylon.

The law in the gospel no longer belongs to only one nation, but applicable to everyone in the world. (Refer to Bosco Bible Dictionary no. 923)

St. Paul said: “Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access (by faith) to this grace in which we stand, and we boast in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we even boast of our afflictions, knowing that affliction produces endurance, and endurance, proven character, and proven character, hope, and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts through the holy Spirit that has been given to us.” ( Rom. 5:1-5)

He added: “But now we are released from the law, dead to what held us captive, so that we may serve in the newness of the spirit and not under the obsolete letter.” (Rom. 7:6)

Our example in our lives is Jesus Christ.
