Galatians / Question
Question source
Galatians
Paul says before faith came, people were “held captive under the law.” He describes the law as a “guardian” until Christ, but says that now that faith has come, believers are no longer under a guardian (Galatians 3:23–25).
23But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, shut up to the faith which should afterwards be revealed.
24So that the law has become our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a tutor.
