The present commentary seeks to be a kind of halfway house between
highly technical and popular treatments of Galatians. Its purpose
is to make the exposition as user-friendly as possible with only as
many technicalities as necessary to accomplish that end. The
emphasis of the work is decidedly theological, with attention
focused on the salvation historical argument of Paul's letter. Its
main target audience includes pastors, students, and Pauline
scholars.The exposition assumes a modified form of the New
Perspective" on Paul and Second Temple Judaism as its framework of
interpretation, and for this reason a premium has been placed on
the letter's historical context as attested by the literature of
Second Temple Judaism as well as the Greco-Roman environment.
However, far from being inimical to the foundational concerns of
the Reformation, this reading of the Galatian letter is fully
supportive of the great mottoes of the Reformers themselves: 'Sola
Scriptura', 'Sola Fide', and especially 'Solus Christus', and all
the more as the present work endeavors to honor an oft-neglected
slogan of the Reformation, 'Ad Fontes' (to the sources). The
previous subtitle, A New Perspective/Reformational Reading, has now
been changed to A Reading from the New Perspective in order to
underscore the author's appreciation of what has been learned from
such scholars as J. D. G. Dunn, N. T. Wright, and numerous others.
