'Law' in the Bible

and the law is not by faith, but -- 'The man who did them shall live in them.'

the law, then, is against the promises of God? -- let it not be! for if a law was given that was able to make alive, truly by law there would have been the righteousness,
And before the coming of the faith, under law we were being kept, shut up to the faith about to be revealed,
so that the law became our child-conductor -- to Christ, that by faith we may be declared righteous,
and when the fulness of time did come, God sent forth His Son, come of a woman, come under law,
