 # For if the inheritance comes by the law, then it no longer comes by promise
 
-Paul is speaking of a situation that did not exist to emphasize that the inheritance came only by means of the promise. Alternate translation: "The inheritance comes to us by means of the promise because we could not keep the demands of God's law" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hypo]])
+Paul uses this argument to show that the inheritance does not come by obeying the law but by believing God's promise. Alternate translation: "If people could receive the inheritance by obeying the law, then it would no longer be true that people receive the inheritance by believing God's promise" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hypo]])
