Galatians 3:16 in Context — Galatians 3
14 com a finalidade de que a bênção de Abraão chegasse aos gentios em Cristo Jesus, para que recebêssemos a promessa do Espírito por meio da fé.
15 Irmãos, estou falando em termos humanos: ainda que seja o pacto de uma pessoa, depois de confirmado, ninguém o anula, nem lhe acrescenta.
16 Ora, as promessas foram ditas a Abraão e à sua descendência. E não diz: “E às descendências” como que [falando] de muitos, mas sim como a um: “E à tua descendência”, que é Cristo.
17 Mas digo isto: o pacto foi confirmado anteriormente por Deus em Cristo; e a Lei que veio quatrocentos e trinta anos depois não o invalida de maneira que anule a promessa.
18 Pois, se a herança é pela Lei, já não é pela promessa; mas foi por meio da promessa que Deus a concedeu gratuitamente a Abraão.
