What does it mean that both grace and law honor God?

Answered in 1 source

Grace and law both serve to honor God, as seen in the burial of Abraham by Isaac and Ishmael.

The interaction between grace and law in honoring God is exemplified in Genesis 25 when both Isaac and Ishmael participate in burying their father, Abraham. This unity between the grace given to Isaac and the legal heritage of Ishmael illustrates that God's grace does not negate His law. Instead, both serve God's purposes and reflect His character. Romans 3:31 confirms that faith does not void the law; rather, it establishes it. Hence, both grace and law fulfill divine honor through obedience and the recognition of God's sovereign plan for His people.
