Galatians (New Covenant Commentary)

Jarvis Williams commentary on Galatians is a commentary of one of Pauls most rhetorically charged and polemically sharp letters. Williams writes a commentary of the letter not a commentary of commentaries. He grounds the letter in grammatical-historical exegesis seeking to help readers understand Pauls Greco-Roman and Second Temple Jewish context of the letter. Additionally the book seeks to move from exegesis to application in a few places in the commentary. The strength of the commentary is that it offers a lucid and concise exegesis grounded in Pauls first century context and applicable for twenty-first century readers.
