Galatians 3:10

Galatians 3:10

8 And ^athe Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, ^b“In you all the nations shall be blessed.”

9 So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.

The Law Brings a Curse

10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, ^a“Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.”

11 But that no one is¹ justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for ^a“the just shall live by faith.”

12 Yet ^athe law is not of faith, but ^b“the man who does them shall live by them.”

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”),

John Wesley's Notes

<< Galatians 3:9

Galatians 3:11 >>

They only receive it. For as many as are of the works of the law - As God deals with on that footing, only on the terms the law proposes, are under a curse; for it is written, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all the things which are written in the law. Who continueth not in all the things - So it requires what no man can perform, namely, perfect, uninterrupted, and perpetual obedience. Deuteronomy 27:26
