Intent of the Law

^15 (A)Brothers and sisters, ^(B)I speak ^[a]in terms of human relations: ^(C)even though it is only a man’s ^[b]covenant, yet when it has been ratified, no one sets it aside or adds ^[c]conditions to it.

¹⁸ For ^(A)if the inheritance is ^[a]based on law, it is no longer ^[b]based on a promise; but ^(B)God has granted it to Abraham by means of a promise.
