Pero entonces, ¿para qué se nos dio la ley? Después que Dios le dio la promesa a Abraham, Dios añadió la ley a causa de nuestros pecados, pero sólo hasta que viniera la descendencia de Abraham, a la que se la había hecho la promesa. Además, Dios encomendó a los ángeles entregar la ley a Moisés, que fue el intermediario.
