Galatians 6:6
Compare all
4 But alet each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and bnot in another.  
5 For aeach one shall bear his own load.  

Be Generous and Do Good

6 aLet him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.  
7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for awhatever a man sows, that he will also reap.  
8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap aeverlasting life.  
9 And alet us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap bif we do not lose heart.  
10 aTherefore, as we have opportunity, blet us do good to all, cespecially to those who are of the household of faith.  

Glory Only in the Cross

11 See with what large letters I have written to you with my own hand!
12 As many as desire to make a good showing in the flesh, these would compel you to be circumcised, aonly that they may not suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

Galatians 6:6

Let him that is taught in the word - He who receives instructions in Christianity by the public preaching of the word;

Communicate unto him that teacheth - Contribute to the support of the man who has dedicated himself to the work of the ministry, and who gives up his time and his life to preach the Gospel. It appears that some of the believers in Galatia could receive the Christian ministry without contributing to its support. This is both ungrateful and base. We do not expect that a common schoolmaster will give up his time to teach our children their alphabet without being paid for it; and can we suppose that it is just for any person to sit under the preaching of the Gospel in order to grow wise unto salvation by it, and not contribute to the support of the spiritual teacher? It is unjust.
