George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Rom 3:31 · Douay-Rheims
“Do we, then, destroy the law through faith? God forbid: but we establish the law.”
On this verse:
“Do we then destroy the law through faith? No: but we establish the law. See the words of Christ: (Matthew v. 17.) 1. Because the figures and types of the law of Moses, and the predictions of the prophets, are fulfilled. 2. Because Christians are now taught to fulfil the moral precepts, and the chief part of the law, with greater perfection, in the spirit of faith, charity, &c. (Witham)”
