Commentary on Galatians by Martin Luther

extensive commentary on the Epistle to the Galatians, likely from a theological perspective, emphasizing justification by faith as a core Christian tenet. It frequently contrasts this with the "righteousness of works" advocated by "false apostles" and the "papacy," which it views as leading to self-righteousness and a denial of Christ's sacrifice. The text highlights the Law's purpose in revealing sin and driving individuals to Christ, rather than offering salvation, and explores the Christian's liberty in the Spirit while cautioning against its misuse as an excuse for sin. Throughout, the author defends Paul's teachings against accusations of inconsistency and urges readers to remain steadfast in the Gospel despite persecution and inner struggles.
