Man is continually involved in a twofold combat situation: of having to wrestle with himself, and with the problems which surround him in society.
In this book William Barclay expounds the thinking of Paul on these problems as it is set out in Galatians 5, and shows that through Christ the perfect and adequate release is found.
William Barclay was an author, radio and television presenter, Church of Scotland minister and Professor of Divinity and Biblical Criticism at the University of Glasgow.
While professor, he decided to dedicate his life to "making the best biblical scholarship available to the average reader". The eventual result was the Daily Study Bible, a set of 17 commentaries on the New Testament, published by Saint Andrew Press, the Church of Scotland's publishing house.
The 17 volumes of the set were all best-sellers and continue to be so to this day. Barclay wrote many other popular books, always drawing on scholarship but written in a highly accessible style.
