There are three types of law in the Bible. This is known as the Tripartate View of the Law.

Moral: Summarized in the 10 Commandments, they are binding on all mankind. Breaking them is what we go to hell for. Our breaking of them is what Jesus offered Himself on the cross to atone for.

Civil: Uniquely a church and a state, Israel had civil type laws regarding such things as latrines and borders and the draft and such.

Ceremonial: These are the laws that kept you ceremonially clean. Breaking them was not necessarily a sin. You could be unclean by giving birth, having your period, caring for the sick, or burying the dead. These are not sinful things, but, they made you ceremonially and unclean. Shrimp and pork consumption are basically part of the ceremonial law, and, the dietary laws are specifically done away with in Acts.

Hope this helps.
