Galatians 3:7

Galatians 3:7. Ye perceive, therefore. The Greek may be the indicative or the imperative. The former agrees better with the argumentative character of the sentence and with the parti cle ‘therefore' (άρα). Others maintain that the imperative (‘know ye') is more animated.

Those of faith, emphatic, no others, in opposition to the self-righteous men of the law. ‘They whose starting-point, whose fundamental principle is faith.' Comp. Romans 2:8; Romans 4:14 (in Greek).
