Thanks for bringing up Wright. But the problem is
still there: How does the law (of all things) consign
Israel to sin?
I appreciate Wright's view of collective atonement
(sin dealt with once and for all) vs. individual
atonement (sin dealt with periodically and/or
phenomenologically). But the dilemma of the law's
**purpose** is not resolved through this distinction
-- unless I'm missing something obvious.
