Yes but the 10 commandments are still the character of God, they will never become outdated. Only the need to follow for salvation/holiness had been altered by Jesus’ death. The purpose of the Law is to condemn, so having knowledge of the Law allows non believers to see where they fall short and need a savior. Without that we have a sinful society that doesn’t acknowledge sin.
That scripture is speaking of the covenant regarding Jewish ceremonial laws, not the moral laws given by God to Moses. If you read Hebrews chapter 9 it details exactly what the old covenant was and the new covenant that replaces it is. Gods moral laws are timeless and as a Christian you are still expected to obey them. Calling Christ your savior is not a free pass to willingly live in sin. The preaching of the law of the commandments is useful for convicting the lost of their wickedness and drawing them to the arms of Jesus where they can be forgiven, cleansed, reborn, and find salvation in Him. If you ask 100 people if they think they're a good person, 90 will say yes. Too many walking around thinking their own self-righteousness is good enough for God. That's a big problem because according to the Bible none are good but God, all have fallen far short of the mark of moral perfection which is the benchmark. The commandments emphasize just how far from the mark we all are and will compel us of our need to seek the righteousness of Christ as a shelter as we all get closer to the judgement throne with every passing minute.
The Ten Commandments are a reflection of goodness, but only that. They represent legalism, which is Luciferian light, as God’s children do not live according to legalism but fulfill those commandments by pursuing the fulfillment of God’s love.
Correct, but the Law is not for salvation, but for judgement. Read the first half of Romans. Youre mixing up the purpose of Law in bringing condemnation, which is necessary, with using the law as justification in salvation, which is not required.

Hebrews 8:13 — By calling this covenant "new," he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and aging will soon disappear.
