In this week’s reading we see God giving many
laws and commandments to Moses for His people

My thought today is, “Thank God, Christ freed
us from having to remember and obey

from works, so that no one can boast.

What is Grace? Appropriately, the free
unmerited love and favor of God, the spring and source
of all the benefits men receive from him. (Webster)
Has man ever merited salvation? No!

Some things in these letters are hard to understand, things the ignorant and
unstable twist to their own destruction, as they also do to the rest of the scriptures.

Spirit in Him.

the Jews primarily were under the bond, but they in this respect
were the representative people of the world; and in their inability to keep the law was involved the inability of the Gentiles also, in
whose hearts “the work of the law was written”; and as they did not keep this, they were condemned
by it.

Tittmann explains the Greek, “having a latent contrariety to us”; not open designed hostility, but virtual unintentional opposition through our frailty; not through
any opposition in the law itself to our good. The “WRITING” is part of “that which was contrary to us”;
for “the letter killeth”.

nailed to the cross, the law itself was nailed to it.

One ancient mode of canceling bonds was by striking a nail through the writing: this seems at that time to
have existed in Asia. [Grotius] The bond cancelled in the present case was the obligation lying against the Jews as
representatives of the world, and attested by their amen, to keep the
whole law under penalty of the curse. (JFB)

A positive precept is right because it is commanded, and ceases to be
obligatory when abrogated; a moral precept is commanded eternally, because it is eternally right. If we
could keep a perpetual sabbath, as we shall hereafter, the positive
precept of the sabbath, one in each week, would not be needed. “rests,”

But we cannot, since even Adam, in innocence, needed one amidst his earthly employments; therefore the
sabbath is still needed and is therefore still linked with the other
nine commandments, as obligatory in the spirit, though the letter of the law has been superseded by that higher spirit of love which is the essence of
law and Gospel alike. (JFB)

He speaks now more generally against the whole service of the
Law, and shows by two reasons, that it is abolished.
First, to what purpose would he that has obtained remission of
all his sins in Christ, require those helps of the Law?

Secondly, because if a man rightly considers those rites, he will find that they were so many testimonies of our guiltiness, by which we manifestly witnessed

so mighty. Therefore to what end and purpose should we now use those ceremonies, as though we
were still guilty of sin, and subject to the tyranny of our enemies? (Geneva)
