{The inheritance} (h(8820)kl(8872)onomia). Old word from
kl(8872)onomos, heir (kleros, lot, 
emomai, to distribute). See
on 烘t 21:38; Ac 7:5|. This came to Israel by the promise to
Abraham, not by the Mosaic law. So with us, Paul argues. {Hath
granted} (kecharistai). Perfect middle indicative of
charizomai. It still holds good after the law came.
