“But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;”
But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. The pivot—but now—introduces the gospel's revelation. The righteousness of God (dikaiosynē theou) has been revealed independently of law (choris nomou), yet testified to by Scripture itself. This righteousness does not contradict the law but fulfills what the law testified to throughout history.
