Galatians 5:24

They that are Christ's [ο ι δ ε τ ο υ χ ρ ι σ τ ο υ]. The best texts add Ihsou they that are of Christ Jesus. Belong to him. The exact phrase only here. But see 1 Corinthians 1:12; 1 Corinthians 3:23; 1 Corinthians 14:23; 2 Corinthians 10:7; Galatians 3:29.

Have crucified the flesh [τ η ν σ α ρ κ α ε σ τ α υ ρ ω σ α ν]. The phrase only here. Comp. ch. Galatians 2:20; Galatians 6:14; Romans 6:6. The line of thought as regards death to sin is the same as in Romans 6:2-7; Romans 6:11; as regards death to the law, the same as in Romans 7:1-6.

Affections [π α θ η μ α σ ι ν]. Better, passions. Often sufferings, as Romans 8:18; 2 Corinthians 1:5; 2 Corinthians 1:6; 2 Corinthians 1:7; Philippians 3:10; Hebrews 2:9. Often of Christ's sufferings. Comp. passions of sins, Romans 7:5 (see on motions). o LXX, where we find paqov in both senses, but mostly sufferings. Paqov also in N. T., but rarely and P o. See Romans 1:26; Colossians 3:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:5 : always of evil desires.
