      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.
