AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law [it leads to Him and its purpose is fulfilled in Him], for [granting] righteousness to everyone who believes [in Him as Savior]. |
Bible Question (short): Christ the Goal or the end of the Law? |
Question (full): Why in this passage is the word "telos"(5056 strongs) translated as end? When I look this up in Strongs if find the following defintion;to set out for a definite point or goal.prop. the point aimed at. So should this not say instead, The goal at which the "Law" aims is Christ, who offers righteousnes to everyone who trusts. It would seem to me that Christ is the goal of the "Law" not the end, just a question. |
