Roman-era Judaism bore little resemblance to the practices of modern Orthodox Jews. And Jesus saying that his teachings encompassed all the law and the prophets would outrage any hardliners of that era.
That’s why I qualified it with “from first century Galilee”. Obviously not the same as Rabbinic Judaism. Yes he was a radical reformer and one of many Messiah claimants obsessed with the book of Daniel, but it’s pretty clear he was a Jew with a Jewish message for Jews. The idea that he would have gone along with Paul’s reforms doesn’t really track. Christianity is the religion of Paul.
