The O.T. has many parts to it - the 3 main parts are the Law, the Prophets and the Writings. Jesus said He came not to destroy but the fulfill or fill to the rim the Law of God - giving mankind its spiritual intent. He also came to fulfill the Prophecies written about Him and did so. He referred to many other writings of the Psalms, Genesis, etc..
His coming as the promised one that Moses spoke of as did several prophets, helped Him bring the Old Covenant into the New Covenant by His death on the Cross. He is now our eternal High Priest and Mediator to the Father for all mankind. The sacrificial laws ended by His sacrifice as Paul explains in Hebrews and certain administrative amendments took place (Levitical Priesthood for one) for Jesus' new central role on behalf of all mankind.
