We seem to be at cross purposes. I was pointing out that in Judaism Torah is what the world is all about, whereas Paul taught that the Torah was but a schoolmaster to lead people to Chr*st. This is the teaching I was attributing to Paul. I'm sorry if I was not clear.

You said that Paul taught that the universe was created so that Jews could study the law. Please show me where Paul taught that.

Also, Paul did not teach that the Torah was a "school master." He taught that Jesus was the Word of God, and so he was, quite literally, the Torah. Anything that Jesus taught was therefore the purest Torah.

You're correct that Paul taught that the universe was created for the Torah, it's just that the Torah is Jesus.
