Top Highlights
“We think Paul mentions Christ in v. 4 because now that the fullness of time has come (Gal 4:4) the specific way in which one manifests reliance upon God and his promises is by trusting the God who sent his Son to atone for sins (cf. Rom 3:21–26).” (Page 123)
“In conclusion, Rom 10:4 proclaims that Christ is the end of the law in the sense that he is the end of using the law to establish one’s own righteousness.” (Page 135)
“The obedience of Christ, according to the theology of Romans 5, is specifically his fidelity to God the Creator and his perseverance in the course set before him by his Father. Christ thus fulfills the role originally assigned to Adam as the progenitor of the human race: he is the actual εἰκὼν τοῦ θεοῦ, the one who projects onto the field of space and time the likeness of the invisible God (Col 1:15).” (Page 295)
“The grounds of salvation are as secure for the person who does not have full assurance as for the person who has.” (Page 11)
“barren one of Isaiah in Gal 4:21–31 follows the trajectory defined by the development of this theme in the OT” (Page 307)
