Commentary
on Galatians
by James Haldane
James A. Haldane was in the last few years of his life when he penned
this excellent Exposition of the Epistle to the Galatians. His stated
desire in writing this commentary on Paul’s epistle was that it might
"prove useful in leading any of the Lord’s people to a more diligent
study of the Scriptures, and to a clearer understanding of the relation
of the old and new covenants."
What makes Haldane’s Exposition of Galatians unique among all others is
his handling of its major premise - that in confusing and even mixing
the Old Covenant with the New, many Christians have been led astray not
only on Law and Grace, but in the very nature of the New Testament
church and her ordinances. "This epistle," wrote Haldane, "and that to
the Hebrews, contain a full exposition of the Mosaic dispensation, and
its relation to the kingdom of Christ. Had these epistles been
understood, the corruption of the Gospel, and the ordinances of Christ,
would not have taken place; but in them and the rest of the New
Testament, a highway is prepared for the followers of Jesus to retrace
their steps, and to be guided by "the pattern showed to them in the
mount," where the voice from the excellent glory proclaimed, "This is my
beloved Son, Hear Him!"
This fine exposition is appended with other good works by Haldane,
including Judaism and Christianity and Reasons for a Change in
Sentiments Regarding Baptism, directly relating to these important
subjects, and that which relates his own spiritual journey to a solid
New Testament foundation.
This is the third volume in the Newport Commentary Series. 480 pages
with dust jacket.
