SCRIPTURE

"Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man`s covenant, yet when it hath been confirmed, no one maketh it void, or addeth thereto." — Galatians 3:15 (ASV)

No man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

There it stands, and an appeal can be made to it in any court of law where it may be produced.

Brethren, I speak after the manner of men: Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

A covenant is a covenant; whatever happens, it cannot be altered, it stands, though it was only made by men.

Brethren, I speak after the matter of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

If a covenant is once made, signed, sealed, and ratified, no honourable man would think of drawing back from it. Whatever happens afterwards, the covenant having been once made is regarded as an established fact, and it must remain.
