Galatians 2:14 - Forerunner Commentary

Galatians 2:14

12 for before certain men came from James, ^ahe would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing¹ those who were of the circumcision.

13 And the rest of the Jews also played the hypocrite with him, so that even Barnabas was carried away with their hypocrisy.

14 But when I saw that they were not straightforward about ^athe truth of the gospel, I said to Peter ^bbefore them all, ^c“If you, being a Jew, live in the manner of Gentiles and not as the Jews,¹ why do you compel Gentiles to live as² Jews?

15 ^aWe who are Jews by nature, and not ^bsinners of the Gentiles,

16 ^aknowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law but ^bby faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, that we might be justified by faith in Christ and not ^cby the works of the law; for by the works of the law no flesh shall be justified.

17 “But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found ^asinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? Certainly not!
