He fulfilled (filled to the top) the Law of God (summarized by the 10 Commands) by teaching the spiritual intent of the Law - which is spiritual (see Romans 7:14). As an example, 'Do not commit adultery' is the act of having sexual intercourse while one or both parties are married. Jesus taught that even the thought of having sex (lust of the eyes) with someone has already committed adultery.

He also told us to love all as He did (totally unselfishly and not looking for a 'reward') - second divine God being lowering Himself to be a man and suffer and die for the sins of all mankind - our propitiation:

John 13:34New International Version (NIV)

34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

Do Jews and christians both believe in the 10 commandments?

Jews refer to the 10 statements, since not all of them are in the form of commandments. Traditionally, Jews consider themselves to be bound by the 613 commandments found in the Torah, all of which tradition holds were revealed by God and written down by Moses while on Mount Sinai. The 10 statements etched on the stone tablets are seen as a symbol of the 613. The Christian understanding of the role of the 10 commandments is colored by the idea that these were the heart of the old covenant, and that the coming of Jesus instituted a new covenant. There are several different Christian models of the relationship between these covenants; in some, the new covenant supersedes the old, in others, both remain in force.
