In chapter 3 of Galatians, Paul’s frustration with the churches in Galatia begins to show as he explains that it is foolish to trust in the law. He argues that the children of Abraham are not those who are his descendants by physical descent, but those who have faith. Those who rely on the law are under a curse, but Christ delivered us from the curse by being hung on a tree, that is, the cross of crucifixion. He goes on to argue that the law came 430 years after the covenant promise with Abraham, and did not void that covenant. The promises of that covenant are to Abraham and his seed, which is singular: in other words, they point to Christ. The law was given as a guardian because of man’s sinful nature, but in Christ, we are no longer under the law.
