How is that different from Judaizing?

How can the common perception of the term 'judaizing' be correct if Yeshua Himself, the Great Teacher, said that we are to do and teach the law (and the prophets... That by the way, implies the entire Tanakh)?

Matthew 5:17-20 17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19 Therefore whoever relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever does them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

I wonder why Catholics don't take this passage literally as well.

After all, Jesus Himself said it.
