Exegesis
In the concluding nominal clause pleroma oun nomou he agape {πλήρωμα οὖν νόμου ἡ ἀγάπη | plḗrōma oun nómou hē agápē}, pleroma ‘fulfillment’ functions predicatively, with the genitive nomou specifying ‘of the law’ and the inferential conjunction oun marking the logical consequence: because love never yields harm, it thus accomplishes what the law requires. This structure preserves the subject focus and the inferential link when rendered in English.
In context — Romans 13:10
Love does not work evil against a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
