17 And I say this, A covenant having been ratified before to Christ by God, the Law coming into being four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul the promise, so as to abolish it .
18 For if the inheritance is of law, it is no more of promise; but God has given it to Abraham through promise.
19 Why the Law then? It was added because of transgressions, until the Seed should come, to whom it had been promised, being ordained through angels in a mediator's hand.
20 But the Mediator is not of one, but God is one.
21 Then is the Law against the promises of God? Let it not be! For if a law had been given which had been able to make alive, indeed righteousness would have been out of law.
22 But the Scripture locked up all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to the ones believing.
23 But before the coming of faith, we were guarded under law, having been locked up to the faith being about to be revealed.
24 So that the Law has become a trainer of us until Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
