This is an abridged translation of Luther's Commentary of Galatians. All I can say is that the original must be a pretty hefty tome, because Dr. Luther does seem to carry on. But that's not so bad, because he's also interesting to read. (I suppose that's one reason his words have lasted all these centuries.) As a history buff, it was interesting to see how Dr. Luther drew parallels between the Judaizers troubling the 1st Century church in Galatia and his own opponents in the Roman Catholic Church. Of course, how those passages apply to me in the 21st Century is something I'll have to ponder on my own. But there's still many useful insights that apply to every age and make the book worth reading.

Disambiguation notice
Nota bene: Just because it says "Bible", it doesn't necessarily need to be combined. When combining bible editions, please take a close look at what edition it actually is. There are substantial differences between a German Luther bible and an Einheitsübersetzung (the first has an author, Martin Luther, the second has no author). Same goes for Jewish translations: The bible as translated by Buber&Rosenzweig is a different work from the Tur-Sinai translation. Do not combine bibles that are clearly different.
