15for the law worketh wrath; but where there is no law, neither is there transgression.


In Context

12 and the father of circumcision to them who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham which he had in uncircumcision.

13 For not through the law was the promise to Abraham or to his seed, that he should be heir of the world, but through the righteousness of faith.

14 For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise is made of none effect:

15 for the law worketh wrath; but where there is no law, neither is there transgression.

16 For this cause it is of faith, that it may be according to grace; to the end that the promise may be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

17 (as it is written, A father of many nations have I made thee) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth the things that are not, as though they were.
