Produced by John Hagerson and Mrs. Faith Ball
"The Preacher's Complete Homiletic Commentary on the Books of the Bible: Volume 29" by Rev. George Barlow is a religious commentary likely written toward the end of the 19th century. This work is a homiletic commentary focusing specifically on the Epistles of St. Paul, including Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and the Thessalonian letters. Through critical and explanatory notes, the book aims to provide insights into the theology, context, and interpretation of these important Biblical texts for preachers and scholars alike. At the start of the commentary, the author introduces the Galatians, detailing their Celtic heritage and tendencies towards impulsiveness and quarrelsomeness, which he connects to their early Christian struggles. Rev. Barlow emphasizes the urgency of Paul's letters to the Galatians, pointing out their quick deviation from the teachings of grace. He reinforces the notion of Paul's divine authority as an apostle, not according to human standards but through direct revelation from Christ. Barlow's opening sets the tone for a rigorous analysis of the epistles, demonstrating deep appreciation for their historical context and theological implications.
