Chap. III.
By their ovvne conuersion at the first, 6 and by the example of Abraham, and promise
made to him, he shevveth that the vvay to obtaine the benediction, is to seeke vnto
God by faith in Christ. 10 Seing also that the Lavv curseth euery one that hath
not euermore kept the Lavv. 15 And, that the Lavv vvas not giuen to alter
Gods testament, 19 but to conuince the Ievves of sinne, 23 and so to be their
pædagogue or leader vnto Christ, 25 and then to cease.
1 O Sensles Galatians, vvho hath note bevvitched
you, not to obey the truth, before vvhose eies
Iesvs Christ vvas proscribed, being crucified
among you?
2 This only I vvould learne
of you, By the vvorkes of the Lavv, did you
receiue the Spirit, or by the hearing of the faith?
3 Are you
so foolish, that vvhereas you began vvith the spirit, now you
vvil be consummate vvith the flesh?
4 Haue you suffered so
great things vvithout cause? if yet vvithout cause.
5 He
therfore that giueth you the Spirit, and vvorketh miracles among
you: by the vvorkes of the Lavv, or by the hearing of
the faith doeth he it?
6 As, Abraham beleeued God, and it vvas repured
to him vnto iustice. note
7 Knovv ye therfore that they that are note of faith, the same are
the children of Abraham.
8 And the Scripture foreseing
that God iustifieth the Gentils by faith, shevved vnto Abraham
before, That in thee shal al nations be blessed. note
9 Therfore they
that are of faith, shal be blessed vvith the faithful Abraham.
10 For vvhosoeuer are of the vvorkes of the Lavv, are vnder
curse. For it is vvritten:09Q1206 Cursed be euery one that abideth not in al things
that be vvritten in the booke of the Lavv, to doe them. note
11 But that in the
Lavv no man is iustified vvith God, it is manifest, because
-- --
The iust09Q1207 liueth by faith. note
12 But the Lavv is not by faith: but, He that
doeth those things shal liue in them. note
13 Christ hath redeemed vs from
the curse of the Lavv, being made a curse for vs (because it is
vvritten, Cursed is euery one that hangeth on a tree) note
14 that on the Gentiles
the blessing of Abraham might be made in Christ Iesvs:
that vve may receiue the promisse of the Spirit by
faith.
15 noteBrethren (I speake according to man) yet a mans testam&ebar;t
being confirmed no man despiseth, or further disposeth.
16 To Abraham vvere the promises said, and to his seede. He
saith not, And to seedes, note as in many: but as in one, And to thy seede,
vvhich is Christ.
17 And this I say, the testament being confirmed
of God, the Lavv vvhich vvas made after foure hundred
and thirtie yeres, maketh not void to frustrate the promise.
18 For if the inheritance be of the Lavv, novv not of
promise. But God gaue it to Abraham by promise.
19 Vvhy
vvas the Lavv then? It vvas put for transgressions, vntil the
seede came to vvhom he had promised: ordeined by Angels
in the hand of a mediatour.
20 And a mediatour is not of one:
but God is one.
21 Vvas the Lavv then against the promises
of God? God forbid. For if there had been a Lavv giuen that
could iustifie, vndoubtedly iustice should be of the Lavv. note
22 But the Scripture note hath concluded al things vnder sinne:
that the promise by the faith of Iesvs Christ might be giuen
to them that beleeue. &cross4;
23 But before the faith came,
vnder the Lavv we vvere kept shut vp, vnto that faith which
vvas to be reuealed.
24 Therfore the Lavv vvas our Pedagogue
in Christ: that vve may be iustified by faith.
25 But vvh&ebar;
the faith came, novv vve are not vnder a pædagogue.
26 For
you are al the children of God by faith in Christ Iesvs.
27 For as many of you as are baptized in Christ,09Q1208 haue put
on Christ.
28 There is not Ievve nor Greeke, there is not
bond nor free, there is not male nor femal. For al you are one
in Christ Iesvs.
29 And if you be Christs, then are you
the seede of Abraham, heires according to promise.
