What’s ironic is… that passage, Jesus is saying the exact opposite.

“Do not think I have come to abolish the law and the prophets I have not come to abolish it, but to fulfill it.” It goes onto say that the law is eternal, and won’t be changed and blah blah blah.

(The idea of the law being made to go away comes from the heretic, Paul, who realized that centipede were unlikely to convert if they had to get snipped as Jesus intended.)
