Galatians 3:15

Linguistic Bible Translation from Source Texts

Brothers and sisters, let me take an example from everyday life: Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly ratified, so it is in this case.

    16Now to Abraham the promises were spoken, and to his seed. It does not say, 'and to seeds,' as if referring to many, but, 'and to your seed,' meaning one, who is Christ.

    17This is what I mean: The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus cancel the promise.

    18For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on the promise; but God gave it to Abraham through a promise.

    19Why, then, was the law given? It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise was made would come. It was administered through angels by a mediator.

    13For when God made a promise to Abraham, since He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,

    14saying, 'Surely I will bless you abundantly and multiply your descendants greatly.'

    15And so, after waiting patiently, Abraham obtained the promise.

    16People swear by someone greater than themselves, and an oath confirms what is said and puts an end to all argument.

    17Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of His purpose very clear to the heirs of the promise, He guaranteed it with an oath.
