What if one of the most quoted letters in the New Testament has also been one of the most misunderstood?
For centuries, Paul's Letter to the Galatians has stood at the center of some of Christianity's fiercest theological debates. Many have read Galatians as Paul's great declaration against the Law of Moses. Others, troubled by that interpretation, have gone so far as to question Paul's authority as an apostle.
But what if both conclusions miss the historical context?
In The Enigma of Galatians, Robert Arthur McDuffie reopens the case.
Using an investigative, courtroom-style approach, this book examines Galatians through the world of the first century rather than through theological assumptions developed centuries later. Paul is allowed to testify through his own words. Acts provides the historical evidence. Abraham, Moses, the prophets, Yahoshua, Peter, James, and Paul's other writings are called as witnesses.
At the center of the investigation are the questions that have divided readers for generations:
What did Paul really mean by "works of the law"?
Why did he speak so strongly against circumcision?
What is "the curse of the law"?
Was the Torah itself the unbearable yoke?
What did Paul mean when he called the Law a schoolmaster?
What were the Galatians actually turning back to?
What do Sarah and Hagar represent?
What does it mean to be "not under the law"?
And can justification by grace through faith coexist with faithful obedience?
The evidence leads to a provocative conclusion:
Paul was not declaring war on the Torah of Yahovah.
He was defending the sufficiency of Yahoshua Messiah against every attempt to make circumcision, religious status, human tradition, or works the basis of justification.
At the same time, Paul never used grace as an excuse for lawlessness.
The Enigma of Galatians challenges both legalism and lawlessness, confronting inherited assumptions on every side and inviting the reader to return to the text within its original historical, Jewish, biblical, and covenantal context.
This is not simply another commentary on Galatians.
It is an investigation.
The witnesses have testified.
The evidence has been presented.
Now the verdict belongs to the reader.
"When we take the text out of context, it only leaves the con."
- Robert Arthur McDuffie
