Deuteronomy 6:25
6:25 a righteous when we obey: Obedience shows that one is already in a state of righteousness, a standing before God obtained by faith (see 24:13 b; Hab 2:4 c; Rom 1:17 d; 4:1-5 e; Gal 3:6-7 f; see also Gen 15:6 g; Eph 2:8-9 h). When other nations observed Israel’s commitment to the covenant, they could rightly conclude that Israel was righteous.
