Excerpt from A Commentary, Critical, Practical and Explanatory, on the Old and New Testaments, Vol. 2: Galatians Revelation
T e style combines the two extremes, sternness (ch. 1 3. 1-5) and tender ness (ch. 4. 19, the characteristics of a man of strong emotions, and both alike well suited for acting on an impressible people such as the Galatians were. The beginning is abrupt, as was suited to the urgency of the question and the greatness of the danger. A tone of sadness, too, is apparent, such as might be expected in the letter of a warm-hearted teacher who ad just learned that those whom he loved were forsaking his teachings for those of perverters of the truth, as well as ivin ear to calumnies against himself.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the compelling and historically significant story of Saint Paul, one of the most influential figures in early Christianity. The author meticulously examines the Epistle to the Galatians, a pivotal text within the New Testament, exploring its historical context, the complex relationship between Paul and other key figures like Peter and James, and the central themes of justification by faith and the struggle against legalism. The book explores the turbulent world of early Christianity, where tensions between Jewish and Gentile believers simmered, and the power of faith in Christ was tested against the allure of traditional Jewish rituals. It illuminates Paul's unwavering dedication to the universality of the Gospel, arguing for a faith that transcends cultural and religious boundaries. Through a deep and insightful analysis of the Epistle to the Galatians, the book reveals the profound significance of Paul's teachings for understanding the core principles of Christianity and the enduring challenge of reconciling faith with cultural and social norms.
