Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes. — The τέλος (telos, "end/goal") of the νόμος (nomos, "law") is Christ; he is its culmination and completion. The law's trajectory points to Christ, who grants δικαιοσύνη (dikaiosynē, "righteousness") to all believers (τῷ πιστεύοντι, tō pisteuonti, "the one who believes"). Righteousness is now faith-based, not works-based.
