Jesus concern is not for the Law itself, but for the rights and the reverence due to God, and for the honor and respect due to God's children, all of which is the substance of the Law. To God is is not the Law that is sacred, but the human soul. So, the Law means nothing if the heart and soul of a human being is polluted by willfully entertaining evil thoughts and desires, and evil polluting against the interests of God and our fellow human beings.
Love is the basis for the whole Law and the prophets. If you love properly, there is no need for written commandments. Commandments are a substitute for people who have never learned how to love, and have to be told how to treat God and one another.
Jesus showed us how we should express that love. Jesus loved everything alive, from God down to the simplest creature. He had reverence for everything his Father created. This was the model of love he set for all of us.
