Galatians 3:22

All— The words Τα παντα are used here for all men. In Romans 3:9; Romans 3:19 the Apostle expresses the same thing by παντας, all men, and πας ο κοσμος, all the world: but, speaking in the present verse of the Jews in particular, he says we, meaning those of his own nation, as is evident from Galatians 3:24. Hath concluded all under sin, means, "hath ranked them all together, as one guilty race of sinners." See this proved, Romans 1:18; Romans 1:32; Romans 3:9. To the same purpose of putting both Jews and Gentiles into one state, St. Paul uses, Hath shut them up all together, Romans 11:32. Some render Galatians 3:23. But before faith came, we were kept shut up under the law, till the future faith should be revealed.
