God`s Faithfulness...
1.  What then is the advantage of the Yehudite, or what is the value of the circumcision?
2.  Much in every way! Because firstly indeed, that they were entrusted with the Words of Elohim. (See also: Acts 7:38, Hebrews 5:12)
3.  For what if some did not believe? Shall their unbelief nullify the trustworthiness of Elohim?
4.  Let it not be! But let Elohim be true, and every man a liar, as it has been written, 'That You should be declared right in Your words, and prevail in Your judging.' (See also: Psalms 51:4, Matthew 12:37)
5.  But if our unrighteousness establishes the righteousness of Elohim, what shall we say? Is Elohim unrighteous who is inflicting wrath? I speak as a man.
6.  Let it not be! Otherwise how shall Elohim judge the world?
7.  For if the truth of Elohim has increased through my lie, to His esteem, why am I also still judged as a sinner?
8.  And why not say, 'Let us do evil so that the good might come'? - as we are wrongly accused and as some claim that we say. Their judgment is in the right.
No One Is Righteous...
9.  What then? Are we better than they? Not at all, for we have previously accused both Yehudim and Greeks that they are all under sin.
10.  As it has been written, 'There is none righteous, no, not one! (See also: Psalms 14:1-3, Psalms 53:1-4)
11.  'There is no one who is understanding, there is none who is seeking Elohim. (See also: Psalms 14:1-3, Psalms 53:1-4)
12.  'They all have turned aside, they have together become worthless. There is none who does good, no, not one.' (See also: Psalms 14:1-3, Psalms 53:1-4)
13.  'Their throat is an open tomb, with their tongues they have deceived,' 'The poison of adders is under their lips,' (See also: Psalms 5:9, Psalms 140:3)
14.  'Whose mouth is filled with cursing and bitterness.' (See also: Psalms 10:7)
15.  'Their feet are swift to shed blood, (See also: Proverbs 1:16)
16.  ruin and wretchedness are in their ways, (See also: Isaiah 59:7)
17.  and the way of peace they have not known.' (See also: Isaiah 59:7)
18.  'There is no fear of Elohim before their eyes.' (See also: Psalms 36:1)
19.  And we know that whatever the Torah says, it says to those who are in the Torah, so that every mouth might be stopped, and all the world come under judgment before Elohim. (Topics: Law of God)
The Law (Torah) Defines Sin...
20.  Therefore by works of Torah no flesh shall be declared right before Him, for by the Torah is the knowledge of sin.

How do we know what sin is?

(See also: Psalms 143:2, Romans 2:13, Romans 7:7, Galatians 5:4, James 2:21, James 2:24-25, 1 John 3:4) (Topics: Law of God, What is sin?)
Righteousness Through Faith...
21.  But now, apart from the Torah, a righteousness of Elohim has been revealed, being witnessed by the Torah and the Prophets,
22.  and the righteousness of Elohim is through belief in Yahushua Messiah to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference,
23.  for all have sinned and fall short of the esteem of Elohim,
24.  being declared right, without paying, by His favour through the redemption which is in Messiah Yahushua,
25.  whom Elohim set forth as an atonement, through belief in His blood, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His tolerance Elohim had passed over the sins that had taken place before,
26.  to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He is righteous and declares righteous the one who has belief in Yahushua.
27.  Where, then, is the boasting? It is shut out. By what Torah? Of works? No, but by the Torah of belief.
28.  For we reckon that a man is declared right by belief without works of Torah. (See also: Galatians 5:4, James 2:21, James 2:24-25)
29.  Or is He the Elohim of the Yehudim only, and not also of the gentiles? Yea, of the gentiles also,
30.  since it is one Elohim who shall declare right the circumcised by belief and the uncircumcised through belief.
The Law (Torah) is Established By Faith, Not Nullified...
31.  Do we then nullify the Torah through the belief? Let it not be! On the contrary, we establish the Torah.

Was the law made void or nullified when faith came?
