Conrad Commentaries: Galatians

How will we be judged? As a Christian, should I continue to defend and to practice the Law of Moses? Though Paul felt he had clearly taught the answer to these questions, the Galatian Christians fell under the sway of teachers who led them in a different direction. Perplexed by their lapse, Paul penned this letter to revisit those very questions in a highly creative and potent fashion. Since Paul's day, many teachers have come and gone swaying Christians in the wrong direction just like Paul's opponents. In the midst of confusion on these central issues, this commentary seeks to settle the conscience of the modern reader by answering those very questions.
