What would it mean for righteousness to be gained through the law?

Galates 2:21 (NEG79)

21 Je ne rejette pas la grâce de Dieu; car si la justice s'obtient par la loi, Christ est donc mort en vain.

For righteousness to be gained through the law is for a declaration of righteousness in the sight of God to be given in response to obedience to the law.1 This is not possible for fallen man (Romans 1:18 – 3:20).
