Shalom.
For how long will the Law, the Torah, exist? Why did Jesus tell His audience to keep and teach the Commandments to be great in the kingdom of heaven?
Shalom.

lol You really are an idiot aren't you. Jesus said that when He was alive. So the old testament was not yet fulfilled. But after His death on the cross, that fulfilled the law.
Matt 5:17-18
17 "Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill.
18 "For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled.

The new testament wasn't valid until after Jesus died.
Heb 9:16-17
16 For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
17 For a testament is in force after men are dead, since it has no power at all while the testator lives.
