prophet said:Of course, the only righteousness that would exceed all of God' s laws, plus all of the Talmud's, was the Righteousness of Christ. Matthew 5,6 & 7 are reiteration of the impossible- to- keep- law, to those who thought they were keeping it, and those who were led by them.
Jn 5:39
39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life:and they are they which testify of me.
Anishinaabe
The Old Testament Law was not impossible to keep.
Now if what you meant is that it was impossible to keep perfectly, well then that is correct. No body could keep the Law perfectly without breaking one or many of the commandments.
Only the Lord Jesus Christ could keep the whole Law perfectly without ever breaking one commandment.
Again though; the Old Law of the Mosaic Covenant was not impossible to keep. The LORD made provisions in the Law for the offender where he (the offender) could offer the proper sacrifice, and then that would atone for the offender's sin and trangression.
