Galatians 3:11

Read in context

Galatians 3:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.

10 All who rely on works of the law are under a curse. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”

11 Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”

12 The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”

13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”
