death already reigned on earth since Adam's sin. The law made it official.
Romans 5
12 Therefore, as sin entered into the world through one man(Adam) and death through sin, so death passed to all men because all sinned. 13 For until the law, sin was in the world; but sin is not charged when there is no law. 14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam until Moses, even over those whose sins weren’t like Adam’s disobedience, who is a foreshadowing of Him(Messiah) Who was to come.
But more importantly, the Law was for and about the Son through Whose obedience to the Law we might be saved by Him by grace through faith.
15 But the free gift isn’t like the trespass. For if by the trespass of the one(Adam) the many died, much more did the grace of EL(Theos, Elohim, YAH, God) and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Yeshua the Messiah, abound to the many. 16 The gift is not as through one who(Adam) sinned; for the judgment came by one(Adam) to condemnation, but the free gift followed many trespasses to justification. 17 For if by the trespass of the one(Adam), death reigned through the one; so much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the One, Yeshua the Messiah.
The Law was Messiah's path to life because of His obedience in offering His life as a Sacrifice for sin to suffer death for us, in obedience to the Law. The promise of life in the Law(Leviticus 18:5) was to Him and we are saved by His death for our sins and His resurrection life as promised in the Law.
18 So then as through one trespass, all men were condemned; even so through one act of righteousness, all men were justified to life. 19 For as through the one man’s(Adam) disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the One(Messiah), many will be made righteous. 20 The law came in that the trespass might abound; but where sin abounded, grace abounded more exceedingly, 21 that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Yeshua the Messiah our Adonai.
Yet another reason why knowing that Psalm 119 is the Son's prayer for life because of His obedience to the law in offering His life as a Sacrifice for our sins to save us, as the law required of Him and according to the promise of Life in the Law to Him for doing it.
