No. The 1st set of laws was to guide a nation to survive in this world and stay around to produce a nation his son could be born into. If Jesus was just born and DID NOT have a nation waiting for him, do you think many would follow Jesus? The Nation of israel Was raised and given Laws for this purpose to have Jesus be Born into the Nation. Jesus came to earth to Die, that was his point he was dieing to wash all mankind of Adams Sin. Adam was a perfect human and Gave his life away when he rebeled. Every one of us was born from Adam and Thus Sinful. Every human death can not add up to Adams Death (a perfect human) So Jesus (another perfect Human)Was needed to come down to Die for Mankind.

Jesus perfect life and death was an exchange for mankinds Sins. Like the Sacrafices the people of israel were commanded by Law to do, Thoses were in fact a simbol of Jesus Dieing for all mankinds sins, so once Jesus Died they no longer needed to offer up animals for there sins sence Jesus died for all mankinds perfectly.
