Overview

"The epistle of Galatians, written by the Apostle Paul, addresses the issue of Judaizing influences in the early church. Judaizers taught that, in addition to faith in Christ, it was necessary to be circumcised and obey Mosaic law in order to be saved. In response, Paul firmly affirms justification by faith alone, emphasizing freedom from the Old Covenant's Jewish distinctives while still upholding the moral law. This commentary seeks to unpack Paul's argument concerning justification by faith, while also exploring closely related issues such as the believer's relationship to the law, freedom in Christ, and the dynamics of the biblical covenants. It explores Paul's nuanced use of the term ""law"" and its significance for Christian doctrine and practice. By carefully examining Paul's arguments and the broader theological implications, it offers readers a nuanced understanding that may prompt reconsideration of more antinomian views as well as interpretations influenced by Hebrew Roots theology. Implicit within its pages is a distinct theological stance on covenant theology, advocating for a Particular Baptist perspective over against other formulations. Moreover, the commentary navigates the nuanced relationship between the concepts of the fruit of the Spirit and good works, while seeking to illustrate what fruit-bearing looks like, biblically. By offering a comprehensive exploration of these themes, this commentary seeks to equip readers with a deeper understanding of Galatians and its enduring significance for Christian faith and practice."
