Galatians volume 9 Frank J. Matera, Daniel J. Harrington - U.S.A Liturgical Press 1992 - 253tr. Hardcover, Illustration 24 cm - Sacra Pagina Series .

Paul's Letter to the Galatians has played a major role in the history of theology, especially in the Church's teaching on grace, faith, and justification. This commentary argues that Paul's doctrine of justification by faith is essentially social in nature and has important ecumenical implications for the Church today. In its original setting, Galatians established a foundation for the unity of Jewish and Gentile Christians: all are justified by the faith of Jesus Christ.
