Paul tells the believers in Galatia why God gave the law.
# What, then, was the purpose of the law?

The words "by the hand of" are a metonym for the intermediary himself. An intermediary represents one person to another. Paul was probably talking about Moses, who represented God to the people of Israel. Alternate translation "by an intermediary" or "by his representative, Moses" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
The words "by the hand of" represent the intermediary himself. Alternate translation "by an intermediary" or "by his representative"
