The Apostles weren't "Adherents of Judaism". Christianity happened outside of Judaism. (not within it) Two separate religions. Jews wanted nothing to do with Christianity. It was offensive to them. The Jews that came out of Judaism followed Jesus as he deconstructed the law piece by piece. It began even before Christ entered his public ministry.
To whom was the tassels commandment given?The laws were intended to whom they were intended for. A man could not keep laws only intended for woman...
Which was not made known to people in other generations.
But has now been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets.
Ephesians 3:4-6
In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ, 5 which was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets. 6 This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in the promise in Christ Jesus.
To whom was the tassels commandment given?
Numbers 15:38-40
“Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘Throughout the generations to come you are to make tassels on the corners of your garments, with a blue cord on each tassel. 39 You will have these tassels to look at and so you will remember all the commands of the Lord, that you may obey them and not prostitute yourselves by chasing after the lusts of your own hearts and eyes. 40 Then you will remember to obey all my commands and will be consecrated to your God.
Do you have concrete evidence to the contrary?That I think is the silliest thing you have said.
No. The mystery of Christ has now been revealed by the Spirit to everyone. (Jews and gentiles) Not prior.Who was he writing to? Yes, the gentiles did not know and it has NOW been revealed to them...
Who were the Ten Commandments given to?It says right there
I take that you mean any one who commits any of those acts isn't a Christian. I think the Scripture implies practices (has a life style) not a single slip isn't a Christian. 1 JN 1:9.
Repent "with remorse"? Are you adding a condition to repentance?If we stumble in sin and repent with remorse that is normal for any Christian.
Then what value or purpose is the law concerning the Christian? The law isn't flexible in what it says.

I have noticed a pattern of generalities in your posts.Evidence? Yes, the NT! Yes the Apostles were adherents of Judaism...THEY WERE JEWS! You can NOT separate Christianity and Judaism as if Christianity came from a vacuum! That is just silly!

In Post #729 You wrote:
"... The mosaic law has many additions that were not actual commandments of God. …"
In Post # 743 I asked:
Where is the "mosaic law" found?
You replied:
"Exodus, Leviticus, and Deuteronomy are most of it."
In Post #748 I wrote:
How can you claim that these are not the law from God?
Deuteronomy 29:1
These are the terms of the covenant the Lord commanded Moses to make with the Israelites in Moab, in addition to the covenant he had made with them at Horeb.

I asked for concrete evidence. You have provided an opinion. You have nothing.
According to the Pharisees it was also against the law to heal on the sabbath. Again this was an addition to God’s commandment that God did not give otherwise Jesus would’ve been guilty of sin for healing on the sabbath.
Repent "with remorse"? Are you adding a condition to repentance?
How is remorse measured?
Were you remorseful enough? (who knows?)
Could you have been more remorseful? (of course)
Were you remorseful enough? (who knows?)
Repentance means a 180 degree turn. (away from sin toward God)
Add "with remorse" and you are doing endless 360s. (see above)
Who were the Ten Commandments given to?
Deuteronomy 5:1-3
Moses summoned all Israel and said:
Hear, Israel, the decrees and laws I declare in your hearing today. Learn them and be sure to follow them. 2 The Lord our God made a covenant with us at Horeb. 3 It was not with our ancestors that the Lord made this covenant, but with us, with all of us who are alive here today.
