Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Galatians 3:28

There is neither Jew nor Greek - All are on a level; all are saved in the same way; all are entitled to the same privileges. There is no favoritism on account of birth, beauty, or blood. All confess that they are sinners; all are saved by the merits of the same Saviour; all are admitted to the same privileges as children of God. The word “Greek” here is used to denote the Gentiles generally; since the whole world was divided by the Jews into “Jews and Greeks” - the Greeks being the foreign... read more

Galatians 3:27-29. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ In consequence of your believing in him with your heart unto righteousness, and have thereby testified and professed your faith in him; have put on Christ Have received him as your righteousness and sanctification; have obtained union with him, and in consequence thereof a conformity to him; have in you the mind which was in him, and walk as he walked. “In the expression, have put on Christ, there is an allusion to... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Galatians 3:23-29

The law’s purpose illustrated (3:23-4:7)Jews under the law were like children under the control of a guardian, but this was only in anticipation of the coming of Christ. When he came, those who trusted in him were forgiven the sins they had committed against the law and were put right with God. Instead of being like children under a guardian, they now enjoyed the freedom of full-grown mature sons of God (23-26). Since the coming of Christ, all believers are united in him and are God’s children,... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Galatians 3:28

There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and female; for all are one man in Christ Jesus.Every possible kind of racial, economic and sex distinction finds its great equalizer "in Christ." The bond of love and fellowship in the Lord is sufficiently strong to contain all outward differences among God's children. read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Galatians 3:28

Galatians 3:28. There is neither Jew nor Greek,— That is to say, nor Gentile. "All distinctions are now put an end to, by this happy union; all are equally accepted in Christ Jesus; and, being made one body in him, believers, of whatever nation, sex, or condition, are all cemented in the bonds of holy friendship, and animated with the views of the same happiness." read more

28. There is in this sonship by faith in Christ, no class privileged above another, as the Jews under the law had been above the Gentiles (Romans 10:12; 1 Corinthians 12:13; Colossians 3:11). bond nor free—Christ alike belongs to both by faith; whence he puts "bond" before "free." Compare Note, see on Colossians 3:11- :; Colossians 3:11- :. neither male nor female—rather, as Greek, "there is not male and female." There is no distinction into male and female. Difference of sex makes no... read more

3. The logical argument 3:15-29Paul continued his argument that God justifies Christians by faith alone by showing the logical fallacy of relying on the Law. He did this to answer the legalists and to clarify the distinction between works and faith as ways of salvation (i.e., justification, sanctification, and glorification). He continued to base his argument on the biblical revelation of Abraham. read more

The conditions of people under Law and faith 3:23-29"Continuing the perspective of salvation history introduced in Galatians 3:13 f. and developed in Galatians 3:15-22, Paul gives further consideration to the place of the law in the divine economy by showing the relation between law and faith as two distinct dispensations." [Note: Fung, p. 167.] read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Galatians 3:28

Another difference is that under faith all believers share the same privilege and position. Paul was not saying that all distinctions between people have ceased. Obviously people are still either Jews or Gentiles, slaves or free, and male or female. His point was that within the body of Christ all have the same relationship to God. All are of equal value. Paul may have used a fragment of an early Christian hymn here (cf. 1 Corinthians 12:12-13; Colossians 3:9-11)."The three pairs of opposites... read more
