About this ebook
Paul's Epistle to the Galatians is "spiritual dynamite, and it is therefore almost impossible to handle it without explosions," says R. Alan Cole. "This letter is not one with a message simply for those of centuries earlier than ours, nor is it anEpistle that can be read in comfortable detachment without personal involvement. At every point it challenges our present-day shallow, easy acceptances and provokes our opposition . . . Galatians is a statement of Paul's Gospel, which is also of theChurch universal . . . It refuses to allow salvation to depend on anything save the work done for helpless man by God almighty, and enjoyed by a faith which is itself the gift of God. It is the cry for Christian freedom and a passionate appeal for Inter-Communion."The Tyndale New Testament Commentaries have long been a trusted resource for Bible study. Written by some of the world's most distinguished evangelical scholars, these twenty volumes offer clear, reliable, and relevant explanations ofevery book in the New Testament.These Tyndale volumes are designed to help readers understand what the Bible actually says and what it means. The introduction to each volume gives a concise but thorough description of the authorship, date, and historical background of the biblical book under consideration. The commentary itself examines the text section by section, drawing out its main themes. It also comments on individual verses and deals with problems of interpretation. The aim throughout isto get at the true meaning of the Bible and to make its message plain to readers today.
