Oh, right. Edit noted. The summary should be:
The only alternative is a standard that one human, of all humans who have lived, has meet. Though not purely impossible, it is theorized that it is impossible, in practical terms, for anyone else to meet it.
Yes?
Deuteronomy 30:11 For this commandment that I command you today -- it is not hidden from you and it is not distant. [12] It is not in heaven, [for you] to say, "Who can ascend to the heaven for us and take it for us, so that we can listen to it and perform it?" [13] Nor is it across the sea, [for you] to say, "Who can cross to the other side of the sea for us and take it for us, so that we can listen to it and perform it?" [14] Rather, the matter is very near to you -- in your mouth and your heart -- to perform it. (Artscroll).
or from a Christian translation (New International Reader's Version):
11What I'm commanding you today is not too hard for you. It isn't beyond your reach. 12It isn't up in heaven. So you don't have to ask, "Who will go up into heaven to get it? Who will announce it to us so we can obey it?" 13And it isn't beyond the ocean. So you don't have to ask, "Who will go across the ocean to get it? Who will announce it to us so we can obey it?" 14No, the message isn't far away at all. In fact, it's really near you. It's in your mouth and in your heart so that you can obey it.
And:
Surely, if you improve yourself, you will be forgiven. But if you do not improve yourself, sin rests at the door. Its desire is toward you, yet you can conquer it.
Genesis 4:7
