The book of Galatians was written for recovering Pharisees. By trying to base their standing before God on their spiritual performance in keeping the law, the Galatians were in danger of distorting the grace of God. They needed to hear again the liberating message of the gospel, that we are not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. This first commentary in the new Reformed Expository Commentary series is for people who want to experience the gospel in all its liberating power, and for teachers and preachers who are looking for a clear, thorough, practical exposition of Paul's letter to the Galatians. The Reformed Expository Commentary series sets a new standard for expositional commentaries that are biblical and practical.
