Galatians 3:22

Galatians 3:22

20 Now a mediator does not mediate for one only, ^abut God is one.

21 Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law.

22 But the Scripture has confined ^aall under sin, ^bthat the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

23 But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law,¹ kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed.

24 Therefore ^athe law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, ^bthat we might be justified by faith.

25 But after faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor.

Sons and Heirs

26 For you ^aare all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

27 For ^aas many of you as were baptized into Christ ^bhave put on Christ.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Galatians 3:21

Galatians 3:23 >>

But, on the contrary, the scripture wherein that law is written hath concluded all under sin - Hath shut them up together, (so the word properly signifies,) as in a prison, under sentence of death, to the end that all being cut off from expecting justification by the law, the promise might be freely given to them that believe.
