Why, then, the Law [what was its purpose]? It was added [after the promise to Abraham, to reveal to people their guilt] because of transgressions [that is, to make people conscious of the sinfulness of sin], and [the Law] was ordained through angels and delivered to Israel by the hand of a mediator [Moses, the mediator between God and Israel, to be in effect] until the Seed would come to whom the promise had been made. Now the mediator or go-between [in a transaction] is not [needed] for just one party; whereas God is only one [and was the only One giving the promise to Abraham, but the Law was a contract between two, God and Israel; its validity depended on both]. Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a system of law had been given which could impart life, then righteousness (right standing with God) would actually have been based on law. But the Scripture has imprisoned everyone everything--the entire world under sin, so that [the inheritance, the blessing of salvation] which was promised through faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe [in Him and acknowledge Him as God’s precious Son]. (Galatians 3:19-22) O Israel, hope in the LORD From this time forth and forever. (Psalm 131:3)

But in your hearts set Christ apart [as holy—acknowledging Him, giving Him first place in your lives] as Lord. Always be ready to give a [logical] defense to anyone who asks you to account for the hope and confident assurance [elicited by faith] that is within you, yet [do it] with gentleness and respect. (1Peter 3:15) This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall read [and meditate on] it day and night, so that you may be careful to do [everything] in accordance with all that is written in it for then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will be successful.(Joshua 1:8) I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you [who are willing to learn] with My eye upon you. Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous [who actively seek right standing with Him];

Shout for joy, all you upright in heart. (Psalm 32:8,11) A gracious gift from our heavenly loving Father. He wants us to seek Him; He cover's protects, hides, sustains, guides and leads us.
