Galatians, Ephesians (The People's Bible)

Many people have found The People's Bible to be the most reliable Bible commentary series published. It's the laypeople's Bible--down to earth, clearly written, easy to read and understand, filled with practical and contemporary applications. Each volume includes that book's complete text from the NIV Bible. The Christ-centered commentaries following the Scripture sections contain explanations of the text, historical background, maps, illustrations, and archaeological information. The People's Bible commentaries are great for personal or group study.

Paul wrote to the Galatians because their faith was threatened by false teachers who said that salvation was dependent upon both Christ and works. This false gospel, Paul wrote, was "no gospel at all." Paul wrote his letter to the Ephesians while he was a prisoner and reminded them of what God's great power and grace have done for believers.
