Galatians 5:9

Galatians 5:9

Love Fulfills the Law

7 You ^aran well. Who hindered you from obeying the truth?

8 This persuasion does not come from Him who calls you.

9 ^aA little leaven leavens the whole lump.

10 I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.

11 And I, brethren, if I still preach circumcision, ^awhy do I still suffer persecution? Then ^bthe offense of the cross has ceased.

<< Galatians 5:8

Galatians 5:10 >>

Galatians 5:9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump. A proverb which condenses a sermon. Probably only one or two Judaizers had done all this evil work in Galatia. A very little thing in the beginning will sometimes work a great mischief. Compare I Corinthians 5:6.
