What does the Bible say about redemption from the curse of the law?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, fulfilling the law's demands and satisfying God's justice.

According to Galatians 3:13-14, Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, as it is written, 'Cursed is everyone who is hanged on a tree.' This means that the price for our redemption was paid not to Satan, as some mistakenly believe, but to God Himself, who is the lawgiver. The law is a reflection of God's holiness, justice, and character. The demands of the law are exhaustive; it requires perfect obedience in all things (Galatians 3:10). Since all have sinned, a curse hangs over every transgressor, and the only antidote is Christ's substitutionary sacrifice on the cross. His death fulfills the justice required by the law and offers redemption to those who believe in Him.
