The Letter to the Galatians proclaims that Christiantiy was dependent upon nothing but God's free gift of grace, bestowed on all who would accept that gift by faith, Gentile and Jew alike. Because it declares this universality and confutes the Judaizing Christians, the letter is one of the great theological cornerstones of Christianity, according to Dr. Barclay.

An indepth study on the epistle to the Galations,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Letters to the Galatians and Ephesians (New Daily Study Bible) (Paperback)
Barclay has written many commentaries on the books of the New Testament.The one on Galatians is fairly easy to understand despite the fact that it really goes as deep as possible into what the message of the book is. Recommend it as a good reliable source true to the message sent to the Galatains church which was a church plauged by those who wanted the Christian faith to be simply another Jewish sect with obedience to unique Jewish laws such as circumcision - the rite of entrance into the Jewish religion.

This review is from: The Letters to the Galatians and Ephesians (New Daily Study Bible) (Paperback)
Each of Barclay's Daily Studies are incredible. He gives great insights to the customs and tradions of the period, making the Bible come alive and so very easy to understand. His Greek scholorship is so helpful!

A Bible Teacher,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Letters to the Galatians and Ephesians (New Daily Study Bible) (Paperback)
Excellent resource book. I feel unqualified to rate someone with the credentials of William Barclay, but I find
his expositions to be thorough enough to challenge and simple enough to completely understand. I highly recommend his books to any teacher seeking application as a way to bring depth to their Bible classes.
