You mean to say some people teach old testament traditions. Just because you asked. What are those traditions. They cannot judged anyone who does not keep them. 

In the Sinai Covenant it was mandatory to follow their religious yearly Calendar year after year. And they were judged by that.

Basically, Judaism is salvation by keeping man-made laws and traditions. There are over 300, and it is impossible to go through life without breaking them.

The Jews continue to observe the Law as if it was still on effect after the New Covenant began. 

They continued to keep their religious Calendar and celebrate the Passover and the unleavened bread and continued to celebrate all the festivals and the yearly day of Atonement. That's all that had to do, obey the instructions in the book of Leviticus. 

The 600 traditions were for those who subscribed to them and not for the general population of the Jews. 

No one was prohibited to partake in the yearly celebrations because they do not keep those 600 traditions. 

They needed to keep the Sabath and be ceremonially clean. 

They had to continue in the things of the Law because they did not accept that the New Covenant has come...

They did not have to keep the 600 traditions only those whose families were subscribed to them as to be accepted by their families.  

Those Jews who believed they already had forgiveness of Sins in Jesus Christ and this is why they believed because they understood that the sacrifices in the Temple for their forgiveness of their sins are not honor by God who has provided forgiveness of sins through his Son Jesus Christ...but a lot of the Jewish believers who were living in Jerusalem they had to keep the Sabath and the ceremonial laws for the sake of their families, the big family of parents and grandparents are siblings, if not they cannot seat to eat with them if they were ceremonially unclean...and they still had to Circumcised their children because their was not anyother way to continue to live as Jews in Jerusalem. 

Till to day the jews continue to Keep the Law because they believe they are still in the Sinai Covenant. 

Today not all Jews subscribed in keeping the Law of Moses and seek to have the forgiveness of their sins in doing what they are instructed to do accordingly.

There are 613 laws in the Torah alone.

Strange, I thought Christians also believed the Torah was written by G-d.

As you must know, surely, Judaism includes rabbinic traditions not contained in the Torah.

John 6:

32 Then Jesus said to them, Most assuredly, I say to you,

Moses did not give you the bread from heaven,

but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. 

33 For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven

and gives life to the world.

34 Then they said to Him, Lord, give us this bread always.

35 And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life. 

He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who

believes in Me shall never thirst.

I was scrolling through threads and thought- wait a minute,what's going on here in the Study about " The Great I AM" and I just had to go back to the OP    So glad I did!

The Food for my spirit,the Living Waters and the Bread of Life- Glory to Almighty God Most High

The Great I Am....

and Jesus replied" before Abraham was,I AM ( John 8:58)

I must disagree. God himself put a name on Himself. Psalm 83:18 and Jesus at Matthew 6:9 "let your name be sanctified"
