This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Gal 2:21. Οὐκ ἀθετῶ, I do not frustrate) As the Judaizing teachers do, but embrace it with my whole soul.-τὴν Χάριν τοῦ Θεοῦ, the grace of God) by which Christ died for us.-εἰ γὰρ, for if) Christ is our righteousness in Himself; not in so far as [inasmuch as] He fulfils the righteousness of the law in us. This is evident from the consequence which Paul here shows would follow, if the case were otherwise.-ἀπέθανεν, He died) and so rose again. There would have been no need of these, if righteousness had been from the law.
