In the epistle to the Romans the law is looked at in a different way from, that in the epistle to the Galatians. In Romans it is looked at from the side of human experience of it. "That which was ordained to life I found to be death." (Ch. 7:10.) It is his own experience, what it turned out to be on trial. In Galatians, on the other hand, the question is not so much how man finds it, as how God gave it. So much the more weighty is the argument as against the Galatian heresy, that it is God who is shown to be against it.
