“And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.”
The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, 'The one who does these things will live by them.' — citing Leviticus 18:5, Paul contrasts the law's principle (works-performance leading to life) with faith's principle; law and faith are antithetical operative principles, not complementary.
