When the Law is mentioned in the Bible it does not only refer to the 10 commandments but, refers to the Law as a whole with the ceremonial laws, levitical Laws, health laws, 10 commandments.

Hebrews 7:5 KJV
(5) And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:

The law in this verse is not talking about the 10 commandments, but is referring to the law of tithe to the priesthood.  


Hebrews 7:28 KJV
(28) For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.

The law in this verse is the law of the priesthood and again not the 10 commandments.


Hebrews 8:4 KJV
(4) For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:

The law in this text again is not the 10 commandments but the law of offering gifts and sacrifices given to the levitical priests. So from these few verses we can see that when the Law is mentioned it is not just referring to the 10 commandments, but the law as a whole.

Jesus said He came to fulfill the law or Torah, everything He taught was in accordance with the Torah.

Prov 7:1-5
7 My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
3 Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which flattereth with her words.
KJV

Heb 8:10
