Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Galatians 3:11-12

Galatians 3:11-12. That no man is justified by his obedience to the law in the sight of God Whatever he may be in the sight of man; is further evident From the words of Habakkuk, who hath said nothing of men’s being justified by works, but hath declared, The just shall live by faith That is, the man who is accounted just or righteous before God, shall be made and continue such, and consequently shall live a spiritual life here, and receive eternal life hereafter, by faith.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Galatians 3:6-14

Example of Abraham (3:6-14)Abraham’s life demonstrates that God justifies on the basis of faith, not law-keeping. (To understand the illustrations that follow, read Genesis 12:1-3; Genesis 13:14-18; Genesis 15:1-6; Genesis 22:15-18.) Abraham was justified not because he kept the law, but because he believed God. The law, with its rules about circumcision, had not yet been given. The real children of Abraham are not those who have been circumcised according to the law, but those who have been... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Galatians 3:12

Galatians 3:12. And the law is not of faith:— As the Apostle shews here, that there was no obtaining life by the law, without an immaculate obedience; faith, which is used here in opposition to it, must signify a firm belief of the promise of God, and acting according to it, in a dependance upon Christ only for righteousness and salvation; which is the way of justification and salvation revealed by the gospel. read more

2. The Scriptural argument 3:6-14Next Paul appealed to Scripture to defend salvation by faith alone. To refute the legalists Paul first argued that it is incorrect to say that only through conformity to the Law could people become sons of Abraham (Galatians 3:6-9). Second, he argued that by the logic of the legalists those whose standing the Law determines are under the curse of the Law, not special blessing (Galatians 3:10-14). read more

The curse of works 3:10-14"In Galatians 3:6-9 Paul set forth a positive argument for justification by faith. In Galatians 3:10-14 he turned the tables and argued negatively against the possibility of justification by works." [Note: George, p. 227. Cf. Lightfoot, p. 137.] read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Galatians 3:12

Responding to the idea that perhaps both Law and faith are necessary for justification Paul quoted Leviticus 18:5. This verse shows that they are mutually exclusive. They are two entirely different approaches to God. The Law demanded perfect compliance. "Them" refers to the statutes and ordinances of the Mosaic Law.Law and faith are as different as apples and elephants. The Law requires works, but the gospel calls for faith. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Galatians 3:1-29

Justification is by Faith, not Works1-14. The Apostle upbraids the Galatians with their speedy change from faith to legal observances, reminding them of the fact that their reception of the Spirit had not been through the works of the Law, but through faith, and appealing both to the testimony of their own consciences and to the teaching of sacred history in the parallel case of Abraham.Paraphrase. ’(1) You thoughtless Galatians have surely been bewitched.
