Veritas Vos Liberabit
All of the levitical laws were addressed by Christ in the fact that He died so we would no longer be bound by that law which no one could keep perfectly. This is when He established the New Covenant. This is the very thing that Paul talks about in so many of his letters. Take for example the second letter to the Corinthians:
"Not that we are adequate in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves, but our adequacy is from God, who also made us adequate as servants of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life. But if the ministry of death, in letters engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the sons of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was, how will the ministry of the Spirit fail to be even more with glory? For if the ministry of condemnation has glory, much more does the ministry of righteousness abound in glory. For indeed what had glory, in this case has no glory because of the glory that surpasses it."
-- 2 Corinthians 5-10
We are the servants of a New Covenant, through the blood of Christ. This passage even tells us that if we try to live under the old that we will only find death, but rather life is in the new.
