KEY TAKEAWAYS:

The inheritance (that is, justification by faith) was given by God as an unconditional gift to those who believe. Contrary to the claim of the Judaizers, obedience to the Law was not necessary to gain the inheritanceAbraham was saved by faith 430 years before the law was given to Moses. Therefore, grace is superior to the law.The stress on seed (cf. Gen. 12:7; 13:15; 24:7), not seeds, was made simply to remind the readers that the faithful in Israel had always recognized that blessing would ultimately come through a single individual, the Messiah (cf. Gal. 3:19). And Matthew declared Christ to be the Son of Abraham and the true Heir to the First Covenant’s promises (Matt. 1:1).
