And honestly, watch out for Leviticus. Two verses later, it tells you to slaughter a ram to atone for your transgressions. Jesus came and ended all that kind of old testament law. New covenant now....

Yes, Jesus sacrifice on the cross was the final fulfillment of the lamb sacrifice for sins. But note that Jesus did not come to end the law, he came to fulfill it...

Matthew 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.

Except for the sacrifice and dietary laws and some others which are fulfilled by eating the words of Jesus, the law will be fulfilled and continue in Jesus.
