Read what it actually says.....
The law is mentioned three times. Once in respect to circumcision, once in respect to not fellowshipping with unbelievers. And once in respect to incorporating their ways. All of which is said in relation to how the Law does not make one righteous IF NOT through the Faith of Jesus Christ. If righteousness came by circumcision, not fellowshipping with unbelievers and not incorperating their ways, the Law, the Book of the Law then Christ died in vain.
Though it is no longer in place, Not once in the entire letter is the sacrificial system mention let alone chapter 2. It is NOT the context. Since you did not actually address the points shared in the post but attempted to talk over it I will repost it until you take the time to read it and address the points shared within the context. Whether you do or not will be seen. I hope you do.

Paul mentions Circumcision in respect to Titus not being circumcised, Judeans not living as the Gentiles live but as do the Jews, and being separate from those who are not Jews in chapter 2 of Galatians.
All of these are laws which are within the Book of the Law that is mentioned in verse 3:10.
Ergo the law mentioned that does not justify is the Book of the Law. As it is written, the just (the righteous) live out of faith vs 11, the faith that establishes the law. The faith Abraham had. For the word, the commandments and statutes contained in the Book of the Law is in our heart and in our mouth that we do it. That is the word of faith that we preach and must hear. The Law, the commandments and statutes contained in the Book of the Law are in our hearts and minds. He has given us His Spirit to cause us to walk in in His way. For the written Law on Stone and parchment made no one righteous, not one. But the Lord has said, I will circumcise thy heart and the heart of thy seed. The circumcision made without hands, cutting away the sins of the flesh, that we can serve the living God. Not by the letter, the knowledge of sin. But by the Spirit. For the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life..
For that which was on the outside, the Law on stone and parchment is within. We are new creature begotten by the Word of truth. So Let us not forget what manner man we are now, or are to be, and be a doer of the Word that we are begotten of and not a hearer only deceiving ourselves. For we have conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Begotten by the Word of truth. Jam 1 and Rom 8
My friend and friends there are some truths shared in the post that you might not of took noticed to. I will repost it again and highlight one in particular which should have raised questions from you.
The obeying the voice of God is of the hearing of faith that Paul speaks of in Galatians 3. We know this to be true because verse 6 starts with the words “even as” when the spirit speaks of Abraham believing God. And all this is being said in respect to Paul speaking of us being dead but alive, yet not us but the Christ living in us. And the life we now live in the flesh we live by the faith OF the Son of God who gave himself for us. And this Faith is how we are justified.
Because we Know that a man is not justified (made righteous) by the works of the law, if not (except) by (through) the faith of Jesus Christ, as verse 2:16 says
Works of the law is what we do. That is the context. Circumcision, not fellowshipping with the heathen, and not living as they do are all mentioned in respect to these works and all are laws within the Book of the Law which is mentioned within the same context in chapter 3. Couple that with verse 17 where it mentions if we are found sinners while we seek to be justified, made righteous through Christ, is Christ the minister of sin? God forbid it says! This tells us two things. For one this justification is much more than a cleansing from what we done. It is so much more. For it is Christ in us ministering to our hearts and minds, our every being to comply with His Spirit.
How do we know? Because it says if we are found sinners during this justification is Christ the minister of sin? God forbid we made ourselves transgressors!
The goal here through Christ is sinlessness. Which is the only righteousness in God's eyes. For it is written, He that does righteousness is righteous even as He is righteous. He that sins is of the devil. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested. That He might destroy the works of the Devil. Verse 16 says we believe into Christ that we might be made righteous by the faith of Christ. For faith establishes the law as Romans 3 states. This is the context and is missed by all due bad translations and poor exegesis. We believe into Jesus Christ that we might be justified, made righteous through the Faith of Jesus Christ. For the Just shall live out of this faith.
How do we know that verse16 is to be translated this way. Because verse 20 concurs when it says I am dead but alive yet not I, but Christ lives in me. And the Life I now live in the flesh; I live by the faith OF the Son of God who gave himself for me. Couple this with vers 17 where if it explicitly states, if righteousness, not justification. If righteousness came by the Law then Christ died in vain, for nothing. Hence why verse 16 should be translated, a man is not
justified (made righteous) by the works of the law,
if not (except) through the faith OF Jesus Christ, even we have
believed into Jesus Christ, that we might be justified (made righteous) through the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. For the Just shall live out of this faith of Christ. And this faith of Christ establishes the Law.
