Galatians 3:14-18
14in orderG2443 that 1in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 the blessingG2129 of AbrahamG11 might 2comeG1096 to the GentilesG1484, soG2443 that we 3would receiveG2983 4the promiseG1860 of the SpiritG4151 throughG1223 faithG4102.
155BrethrenG80, 6I speakG3004 7in termsG2596 of humanG444 relationsG444: 8evenG3676 thoughG3676 it is only a man’sG444 9covenantG1242, yetG3676 when it has been ratifiedG2964, noG3762 oneG3762 setsG114 it asideG114 orG2228 addsG1928 10conditionsG1928 to it. 16NowG1161 the promisesG1860 were spokenG3004 11to AbrahamG11 and to his seedG4690. He does not sayG3004, “And to seedsG4690,” as referring to manyG4183, but rather to oneG1520, “12And to your seedG4690,” that is, ChristG5547. 17What I am sayingG3004 is thisG3778: the LawG3551, which cameG1096 13fourG5071 hundredG5071 and thirtyG5144 yearsG2094 laterG3326, does not invalidateG208 a covenantG1242 previouslyG4300 ratifiedG4300 by GodG2316, soG1519 as to nullifyG2673 the promiseG1860. 18For 14ifG1487 the inheritanceG2817 is 15basedG1537 on lawG3551, it is noG3765 longerG3765 16basedG1537 on a promiseG1860; but 17GodG2316 has grantedG5483 it to AbrahamG11 by meansG1223 of a promiseG1860.
