Verse 4
4. End… righteousness The end of the law is that full and final result which the fulfilled law would accomplish in the perfectly fulfilling man; namely, perfect justification founded on his perfect righteousness. But let man commit the slightest transgression and, alas! he is done for. Law can never justify him, but must eternally condemn. But, says the apostle, Christ now can step in and accomplish the law’s perfect end.
Believeth Same as the submitted of Romans 10:3. Man must in faith submit himself to Christ in order to the end. And this the Jew ignored, and fell.
