Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Galatians 1:1-5

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTESGalatians 1:1. Paul, an apostle.—He puts his own name and apostleship prominent, because his apostolic commission needs to be vindicated against deniers of it. Not of, or from, men, but by, or from, Jesus Christ and God the Father. The divine source of his apostleship is emphatically stated, as also the infallible authority for the gospel he taught.MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Galatians 1:1-5Apostolic Credentials.I. That apostolic credentials claim... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Galatians 1:6-9

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTESGalatians 1:6. I marvel that ye are so soon removed.—So quickly removed; not so soon after your conversion, or soon after I left you, but so soon after the temptation came; so readily and with such little persuasion (cf. Galatians 1:7-9). It is the fickleness of the Galatians the apostle deplores. An early backsliding, such as the contrary view assumes, would not have been matter of so great wonder as if it had taken place later.Galatians 1:8-9. Any other... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Galatians 1:10-12

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTESGalatians 1:11. Not after man.—Not according to man; not influenced by mere human considerations, as it would be if it were of human origin.Galatians 1:12. But by the revelation of Jesus Christ.—Probably this took place during the three years, in part of which the apostle sojourned in Arabia (Galatians 1:17-18), in the vicinity of the scene of the giving of the law: a fit place for such a revelation of the gospel of grace which supersedes the ceremonial law. Though... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Galatians 1:13-14

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTESGalatians 1:14. Exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.—St. Paul seems to have belonged to the extreme party of the Pharisees (Acts 22:3; Acts 23:7; Acts 26:5; Philippians 3:5-6), whose pride it was to call themselves “zealots of the law, zealots of God.” A portion of these extreme partisans, forming into a separate sect under Judas of Galilee, took the name of zealots par excellence, and distinguished themselves by their furious opposition to the... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Galatians 1:15-19

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTESGalatians 1:16. To reveal His Son in me that I might preach Him.—The revealing of His Son by me to the Gentiles was impossible, unless He had first revealed His Son in me; at first on my conversion, but especially at the subsequent revelation from Jesus Christ (Galatians 1:12), whereby I learnt the gospel’s independence of the Mosaic law.MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Galatians 1:15-19The Imperative Claims of a Divine Commission—I.

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Galatians 1:20-24

CRITICAL AND EXPLANATORY NOTESGalatians 1:24. They glorified God in me.—He does not say, adds Chrysostom, they marvelled at me, they praised me, they were struck with admiration of me, but he attributes all to grace. They glorified God in me. How different, he implies to the Galatians, their spirit from yours.MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Galatians 1:20-24God glorified in His Servant—I. By the undoubted truthfulness of his statements.—“Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Galatians 1:15-16

Galatians 1:15-16 Delay the Silence of Conscience. I. There are grounds, in the very nature of the case, for questioning whether in religion second thoughts are best. It shall hardly ever happen that the man who does not at once act on the impulse to prayer, but takes time for deliberation, will set himself solemnly to the duty of prayer. It is not that the duty will not bear being deliberated; it is only that second thoughts are worse than the first, as being thoughts that have been tampered... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Galatians 1:20

Galatians 1:20 Men-pleasing. I. Deliverance from the fear of men and from the necessity of always seeking to please men may be taken as a general description of the liberty of Christians; while, on the other hand, the necessity to please men represents, as it were, in a very typical manner, the non-freedom of a natural unredeemed man. All social relations involve a desire and an endeavour to please, to be accounted by other people as reposing a certain worth in them and as having a... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Galatians 1:23

Galatians 1:23 The Conversion of St. Paul. I. The change that was made in Saul was of the most extraordinary kind, and not to be accounted for by any of those sudden transitions which one sometimes sees in unstable and vacillating characters. He was a man whose whole feelings, prejudices, and interests were enlisted against Christianity. He could become a Christian only by the sacrifice of position, property, and perhaps even of life. And if you consider the history of Saul, his hatred of... read more
