Relevant, no. It never was. A good person knows right from wrong without needing a set of commandments. Only bad people need to be told that stealing and murder ect is wrong.
Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles were once thought to be historically accurate, giving them a special place in the New Testament. Now, New Testament scholars have established that the author ofLuke actually relied on Mark's Gospel for everything that he knew about the life and mission of Jesus. They say that Luke was believed too readily, and that there are serious doubts about the historicity of events unique to Luke and Acts.Nevertheless, Luke's Gospel can continue to inspire for its concern for the poor and for the moral truths in its parables, such as the Good Samaritan.
The 'Eternal Word' as John calls Jesus in his Gospel (1:1-3) became a man in circa 5 BC and died circa 31 AD. He was the first of the firstborn resurrected and age is no longer relevant to Him as such (time is a physical measurement).
As long as there are people of faith, the Bible will be relevant. It may be evident that some even of those who claim to be devout believers do not really use the Ten Commandments or the teachings of Jesus as their personal guide to ethical behaviour. If this were not the case, we would not need so many laws to enforce proper conduct. Nevertheless, Christians do still use the Bible as a source of inspiration to their faith. Even to atheists and followers of other religions, the Bible remains relevant purely because of its historical significance.
Hosea, Joel, Amos, right through to Malachi are all classed as minor prophets, even though their message from the Lord was vitally important (although often unheeded) and still in some cases relevant today.
It is the usage of the zero symbol that is still essential in mathematics even today.

Absolutely - the whole law (includes repentance) and gospel (includes faith) hangs also upon the commandment to agape one another.
Yes it is still relevant in some parts
The Crucible is still relevant today as mass fear, and political scapegoating still occurs.
