Based on Faith Excerpt To keep the law of God and live by doing so ( Matt.  19:17 ) was the natural aim and hope of a true Israelite; only, in this case, the law was not a collection of statutes, but a revelation of God’s character and will, and he who sought to keep it did so not alone, but in conscious dependence on God whose grace was shown above all things else by His gift of such a revelation.

He is combatting this. Israel sought a righteous standing by law obedience. Paul says it can be only appropriated by faith. He presents this in verses 6–8. Denney says concerning the words, “The righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise,” “It is remarkable that Paul does not make Moses his authority here, though he is about to express himself in words which certainly go back to Deuteronomy 30:12–14.
