According to Jesus none of the old laws changed. He was very clear on that.
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.
