Galatians 3:15

13 ^aChrist has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, ^b“Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”),

14 ^athat the blessing of Abraham might come upon the ^bGentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive ^cthe promise of the Spirit through faith.

The Changeless Promise

15 Brethren, I speak in the manner of men: ^aThough it is only a man’s covenant, yet if it is confirmed, no one annuls or adds to it.

16 Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of ^aone, ^b“And to your Seed,” who is ^cChrist.

17 And this I say, that the law, ^awhich was four hundred and thirty years later, cannot annul the covenant that was confirmed before by God¹ in Christ, ^bthat it should make the promise of no effect.
