Galatians 5:4 - Forerunner Commentary

Galatians 5:4

2 Indeed I, Paul, say to you that ^aif you become circumcised, Christ will profit you nothing.

3 And I testify again to every man who becomes circumcised ^athat he is a debtor to keep the whole law.

4 ^aYou have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; ^byou have fallen from grace.

5 For we through the Spirit eagerly ^await for the hope of righteousness by faith.

6 For ^ain Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but ^bfaith working through love.

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.

12 ^aI could wish that those ^bwho trouble you would even cut themselves off!
