Osborne New Testament Commentaries : Galatians : Verse by Verse

---

Outline : In Paul's Lettter to the Galatyinas, the gospel itself is at stake. Paul writes to churches that he founded on his first missionary journey, telling them to resist a group of Jewish Christians who were telling the Galatians that they had to be circumcised and follow the Old Testament law in order to be saved. In Galatians Verse by Verse, Grant A. Osborne offers a clear exposition that gets at the heart of this powerful book. In lucid and careful prose, he walks readers through what the book of Galatians meant to its original audience and what it means today. The cross may not be replaced with works righteousness. Justification is by faith alone, and living the Christian life is not about trying to earn salvation but about keeping in step with the Spirit. The Osborne New Testament Commentaries, by respected professor and author Grant R. Osborne, are for people seeking a straightforward explanation of the text in its context, avoiding either oversimplification or technical complexity. Osborne brings out the riches of the New Testament, making each book accessible for pastors and all who consider themselves students of Scripture.


After the Apostle Paul returned from his first missionary journey, he heard that a certain group of legalistic Jewish Christians had infiltrated the churches he had established. These false teachers were teaching that new Christians had to be circumcised and follow the Old Testament law in order to be truly saved. Paul, realizing the gospel was at stake, wrote this letter in response. In Galatians Verse by Verse, experienced New Testament scholar sets forth Paul's laser-focused argument: Jesus is not only the Messiah; he came to inaugurate a new era in salvation history. In this new era, Christians are not made right with God by obeying the law; justification is by faith alone. This frees believers to live their lives not trying to earn salvation, but instead joyfully keeping in step with the Spirit. Pastors, Bible study leaders, and invested laypeople will all benefit from Osborne's careful reading of the text and commitment to making sense of the New Testament without scholarly jargon. The Osborne New Testament Commentary Series is a set of commentaries on every New Testament book. In each volume, Grant R. Osborne seeks to carefully exposit the text in plain language, bringing out the treasures in each book and making them accessible for today's readers.
