Grace in Galatia is an innovative socio-rhetorical study of Paul's most polemical letter. Ben Witherington breaks new ground by analyzing the whole of Galatians as a deliberative discourse me
Interpretation
"Witherington is to be commended for taking stock of recent scholarship on Galatians and distilling it into a commentary that is accessible to students, teachers, or pastors. . . Outstanding guide through Paul's letter."
Review & Expositor
"As one might expect, [Witherington's commentary on Galatians is superb and it will certainly take its place alongside the works by Richard Longenecker and Hans Getz. . . The commentary itself is a model of scholarly analysis and brings to the reader the insights of contemporary sociological studies to assist in the interpretation of the text. . . An excellent addition to one's library and certainly can be recommended for purchase and use."
