How do we know the law was temporary?

Answered in 1 source

The law was temporary, as it was added until Christ came, who fulfilled its requirements through His life and death.

The Apostle Paul emphasizes that the law was given until the promised Seed, Jesus Christ, would come and fulfill all righteousness (Galatians 3:19). This indicates the law's temporary purpose: to act as a strict guardian until faith was revealed in Christ. Once faith comes, believers are no longer under the law but are justified by faith, signifying a new covenant relationship with God (Galatians 3:24-25).
