Where is the Law described as being given by angelic mediators and as part of a conditional covenant?

• A. It was given by angelic mediators between God and man and thus involved in a conditional covenant.
• B. The Law was given directly by God and unconditional.
• C. The Law was for the Jews alone.
• D. The Law ended with Christ's death.

Answer: (A)

The statement is describing how the Mosaic Law is presented in Scripture: it was given through angels and by the hand of a mediator, tying it to a Sinai covenant that is conditional—blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. This mediation emphasizes that the law was not handed directly from God to all people, but delivered through angelic messengers and a human mediator (Moses). Paul highlights this in Galatians, noting that the law was added through angels by the hand of a mediator, which points to its conditional nature within the covenant framework. That is why it’s described as part of a conditional covenant rather than an unconditional gift.

This fits best because it explains the distinct mechanism of delivery (angelic mediation) and the contractual condition attached to the law. It also aligns with the broader biblical teaching that the law functions to reveal sin and to point toward Christ, rather than existing as an unconditional decree. The other ideas—that the law was given directly by God without mediation, that it was unconditional, that it was for Jews alone in a standalone sense, or that it ended with Christ’s death—do not capture the specific description of angelic mediation and the conditional nature of the Sinai covenant.
