Gálatas 5:1-23 NVI

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Galatians 5:22-23

‘But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness (consideration for others), goodness, faithfulness, meekness, self-control. Against such there is no Law.’ In contrast to the works of the flesh is the fruit of the Spirit. And now he outlines the ‘fruit’ of the Spirit. We notice the word for fruit is singular. All these things result from the Spirit’s work within, we cannot pick and choose. ‘The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience and long-suffering,... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Galatians 5:1

Galatians 4:21 to Galatians 5:1 . The new thing he tries is an allegorising spiritualising application of an OT story. Slave-born Ishmael mocked ( Genesis 21:10 *) free-born Isaac, and the son of the slave was righteously cast out. God means us to learn from this! Once more it is claimed that the OT supports Paul. A second quasi-allegory is intertwined with the first. According to later Jewish theology, the real Jerusalem, like all other sacred things, existed originally in heaven. And... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Galatians 5:2-12

Galatians 5:2-2 Kings : . Final emphatic statement of the dilemma, Christ or circumcision. Paul, speaking with all authority— in spite of false inferences drawn from his circumcising Timothy ( Galatians 5:11) and in spite of probable evasions on the part of the Judaizers— testifies that those circumcised on religious grounds must keep the whole Law. More important still, in accepting such a rite as necessary to salvation, one renounces Christ; to whom all Christians taught by the Spirit look... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Galatians 5:13-15

Galatians 5:13-Ezra : . First safeguard. They are free indeed, and as Christians are done with Law; but love will save them from indulging lower impulses. Love (as Jesus taught, Mark 12:31 and parallels) includes everything (more fully Romans 13:9 f.). Paul fears cruel partisanships in Galatia— love will prove a remedy. Galatians 5:16-Jeremiah : . Second safeguard— the Spirit; a source not only of trust in God, but of moral activity. Spirit and “ flesh,” the renewed nature and the lower... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Galatians 5:1

The liberty here spoken of, is a right which a person hath to action, that he may do or forbear the doing of things at his pleasure, as he apprehends them suitable or not, without the let or hinderance of another. This is either in things of a civil nature, or of a spiritual nature. The former is not understood here, for it is none of the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, for subjects to be free from the lawful commands of princes, or children to be free from the laws of their... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Galatians 5:2

It is manifest that the apostle is speaking here concerning circumcision, looked upon as necessary to justification, now under the gospel state. For under the Old Testament undoubtedly Christ profited the fathers, though circumcised; yea, Christ undoubtedly profiled Timothy, even under the gospel, though he was circumcised, Acts 16:3, that being done to prevent a scandal, and during a time whilst, for the gaining of the Jews to the Christian faith, the Jewish ceremonies, though dead, were (as... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Galatians 5:3

This must be understood either of the Gentiles only, who were never under any obligation to circumcision, or of such as were circumcised, with an opinion that it was necessary at this time to justification and salvation. Of these the apostle saith, that by this they made themselves debtors to do the whole law; they were obliged to one part of the law, they must also be obliged to all the other parts of it. Besides that circumcision was an owning and professing subjection to the whole law; as... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Galatians 5:4

The word here translated become of no effect, is used Romans 3:3. By those who are justified by the law, are to be understood such as seek or desire to be justified by the law, for actually none is so justified. The sense is: Whoever seeketh to be justified by the works of the law, he disclaimeth the righteousness of Christ; to him Christ’s death signifieth nothing, nor is of any virtue at all. For he had told us before, Galatians 2:21; If righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Galatians 5:5

For we; we Christians, who have truly embraced Christ; or, (as others think), we that are turned from Judaism to Christianity, and so are more concerned in the law, which was not given to the Gentiles, but to us Jews: yet, through the Spirit, by the guidance and direction or the Spirit, or through the operation of the Spirit in us, we wait for the hope of righteousness; that is, we hope for righteousness; that righteousness whereby we shall be made righteous before God; or, (as some will have... read more
