Galatians 3:2

One thing I want to understand (regardless of other arguments, let me ask this question):
[Paul now takes up a main argument concerning faith or law. The question is framed in a chiastic pattern in verses 2b and 5, with an expansion and description in verses 3-4.]
Did you receive the Holy Spirit by keeping the law [following all the provisions of the Books of Moses]
or because of faith (trust) [trust in the gospel]? [Of course it was through faith!]
