32 While the Israelites were in the wilderness, a man was found gathering wood on the Sabbath day. 33 Those who found him gathering wood brought him to Moses and Aaron and the whole assembly, 34 and they kept him in custody, because it was not clear what should be done to him. 35 Then the Lord said to Moses, “The man must die. The whole assembly must stone him outside the camp.” 36 So the assembly took him outside the camp and stoned him to death, as the Lord commanded Moses.

God was the Law in OT times, and His Law was His Word, and He and the Law were One, etc. etc. So God is the Law and the Law is God. The Law was then made flesh through Jesus. Just kind of winging it here. There is a lot of symbolism there that actually makes a lot of sense when you dig further into it. I have only recently began reading the Bible, mainly the Psalms right now.

The Ten Words were foundational to the entire Mosaic Covenant between I Am and Israel. Sabbath-keeping was the fourth of those Commandments (Ex. 20:1-17; Deut. 5:4-21). Execution was prescribed as the penalty for violation in Ex. 31:14-15 and Ex. 35:2-3. So the verdict couldn't have surprised anyone.Geislerminian Antinomian Kenotic Charispneumaticostal Gender Mutualist-Egalitarian.

Matthew 5:17-20
Later in the same Gospel (Matt. 11:28-30) Jesus invites the weary and burdened to come to Him for rest, promising that His burden is light and easy to bear.
Still later in the same Gospel (Matt. 22:36-38), He says that the greatest Commandment is to totally love God, and the second, which is like it or even the same as it is to "Love your neighbor as yourself"; He then says that all the rest of the Law and Prophets depend on those two (or one two-fold) Commandment(s). And still elsewhere (Matt. 7:12), He gives the so-called "Golden Rule," "Treat others as you wish others to treat you," and then explicitly says that single rule "fulfills" the Law and Prophets.
Even without looking at what Jesus said in other Gospels, it appears those hard-line statements about the Law in ch. 5 are not the whole story.

Wouldn't you say that His death ultimately fulfilled the law? Because the law required you die if you stepped out of line."It ain't necessarily so

He was pushed out of line, or He intentionally stepped outside of it, for the sake of becoming sin.

Jesus fulfilled the ritual law but not the moral law.
