(19) And this I say, [that] the covenant, that was confirmed before of God (m) in Christ, the (20) law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
(19) The eighth argument take by comparison, in this way: if a man's covenant (being authenticated) is firm and strong, much more is God's covenant. Therefore the Law was not given to cancel the promise made to Abraham with respect of Christ, that is to say, the end of which depended upon Christ.
(m) Which pertained to Christ.
(20) An enlarging of that argument in this way: moreover and besides that the promise is of itself firm and strong, it was also confirmed by virtue of being in place for a long time, that is, for 430 years, so that it could in no way be broken.
