Read the following excerpt from Federalist #15 by Alexander Hamilton.
Government implies the power of making laws. It is essential to the idea of a law, that it be attended with a sanction; or, in other words, a penalty or punishment for disobedience. If there be no penalty annexed to disobedience, the resolutions or commands which pretend to be laws will, in fact, amount to nothing more than advice or recommendation.

The government could not make laws under the Articles but would be able to under the Constitution.
The government could make laws under the Articles, but would be able to enforce them under the Constitution.
