The Addition Of The Law
19 What then the law? It was added on account of transgressions, (till the seed come to whom it was promised;) appointed by angels in the hand of a mediator. 20 And a mediator is not of one, and God is one. 21 The law then against the promises of God? It may not be: for if a law had been given able to make alive, truly justice would be by the law.
