An excellent series by Mark Biltz on replacement theology. Hat tip to livnbygrac. Start here:

One thing that is crucial to understanding who Yeshua is, is the fact that He never broke the commandments of Torah. If He had broken any of those commandments which were applicable to Him (e.g., many commandments only apply to the Levitical priesthood), He could not have been the Messiah. Neither did He teach that the commandments should be broken. If He had either broken the commandments Himself, or taught others to break them, He would have been no threat to the Jewish leadership. They would simply have cast Him out as a fraud based on the fact that He did not keep the commandments. He would not have been a problem to the Sanhedrin if He had not kept Torah. This is evidenced by the fact that they had to call on false witnesses to accuse Him.

Think not that I am come to destroy the Torah, or the Prophets...Till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the Torah... Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever shall do and teach them [the commandments], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:17-19)

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the Torah, judgment, mercy and faith: these ought you to have done, and not to leave the other [the less weighty matters] undone. (Matthew 23:23)

Who [Yeshua] did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth (I Peter 2:22)

Whoever commits sin transgresses the Torah; for sin is the transgression of the Torah (I John 3:4)

Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death, But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses... (Matthew 26:59-60)
