Galatians 3:1
Justification Belongeth to Abraham's Children by Faith
SUMMARY OF GALATIANS 3: The Spirit Imparted to Galatian Christians
Through the Gospel. This, Too, Before They Knew of the Works of the
Law. Abraham Justified by Faith, While Yet Uncircumcised. Those of
All Nations, Who Believer, Blessed with Abraham. All Condemned by
the Law Since All Are Sinners. Christ, Whom It Slew, Redeemed Us
from Its Curse. The Covenant with Abraham Which Included the
Gentiles Made. Before the Law. The Law Cannot Disannul It. It
Included Christ. All Believers Having Put on Christ, the Seed of
Abraham, Become. Abraham's Children.
Who hath bewitched you? That they, Gentiles, instructed in the
gospel, should virtually deny Christ's death by seeking justification
by the law was inexplicable. Were they bewitched?
Before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth.
Paul, while among them, had so faithfully and vividly preached Christ
crucified, that it might be said that he was pictured before their
eyes. Yet, if they were justified by the law, Christ was crucified in
vain.
