This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Did not arrive at that law (eis nomon ouk ephthasen). First aorist active indicative of phthanō, old verb to anticipate (1Th 4:15), now just to arrive as here and 2Co 10:14. The word “that” is not in the Greek. Legal righteousness Israel failed to reach, because to do that one had to keep perfectly all the law.
