Law and the Law
Romans 3:19-20
Now we know that what things soever the law said, it said to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped…


For the most part the word "law" refers to the general principle "Do this and live"; the words "the law," to the historical and literary form in which this principle took shape in the ears, eyes, and thoughts of the Jews.

(Prof. J. A. Beet.)
