Galatians 3:22 in Context — Galatians 3

20 Or, le médiateur n’est pas médiateur d’un seul, tandis que Dieu est un seul.

21 La loi est-elle donc contre les promesses de Dieu? Loin de là! S’il eût été donné une loi qui pût procurer la vie, la justice viendrait réellement de la loi.

22 Mais l’Écriture a tout renfermé sous le péché, afin que ce qui avait été promis fût donné par la foi en Jésus-Christ à ceux qui croient.

23 Avant que la foi vînt, nous étions enfermés sous la garde de la loi, en vue de la foi qui devait être révélée.

24 Ainsi la loi a été comme un pédagogue pour nous conduire à Christ, afin que nous fussions justifiés par la foi.
