The Law

Reading through Leviticus is overwhelming.  The burden of keeping the law must have been mind boggling.  Then I was reminded of what the Psalmist said in Psalm 19...
"The law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the Lord are true; they are righteous altogether. They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb. Moreover, by them Your servant is warned; In keeping them there is great reward."
Psalms 19:7‭-‬11
The Law wasn't destroyed, Jesus just fulfilled it, thus the law still has great value, don't ignore it, it's sweet as honey.  Keeping them doesn't save, keeping them is just wise.
