Verſe 23. But before faith came, &c.] i.e. Before Chriſt came: Faith is put for the object of faith.
We were kept under the law] As in a priſon or gariſon: being circled with a compaſſing ſtrength. The ſinner, [non-Latin text not transcribed] having tranſgreſſed, is kept by the law, as with a guard or gariſon, that he cannot eſcape, unleſſe he be delivered by Chriſt.
