<p>10:5 <i>For Moses writes, that the man that does the righteousness which is of the law shall live thereby</i>- The quotation from Lev. 18:5 could mean that actually perfect obedience would lead to life eternal; but more likely it is simply a statement that the man who obeys all the laws would live &quot;in it&quot; NEV &quot;thereby&quot;, referring to the righteousness of the law. He would have blessing in this life, and live this life in the righteousness of the law- and that was it, without any hope of ultimate salvation.</p>
