In context

11 Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.”

12 The law, however, is not based on faith; on the contrary, “The man who does these things will live by them.”

13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us. For it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.”

14 He redeemed us in order that the blessing promised to Abraham would come to the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.

15 Brothers, let me put this in human terms. Even a human covenant, once it is ratified, cannot be canceled or amended.
