15For [in Christ Jesus] neither is circumcision anything, nor uncircumcision; but new creation. 16And as many as shall walk by this rule, peace upon them and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

Commentaries on Galatians 6:17
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 17From henceforth let no man trouble me - Put an end to your contentions among yourselves; return to the pure doctrine of the Gospel; abandon those who are leading you astray; separate from the Church those who corrupt and disturb it; and let me be grieved no longer with your defections from the truth. I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus - The , stigmata, of which the apostle speaks here, may be understood as implying the scars of the wounds which…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 17From henceforth - For the remaining time; that is, during the remainder of my life. Let no man trouble me - This implies that he had had trouble of some kind, and he earnestly desires that he may have no more. What particular trouble he here refers to, is not certainly known, and commentators have not been agreed.

- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 17let no one cause me trouble: No one has the right to criticize Paul or his message because he is a proven servant of Jesus. Paul's scars (in Greek stigmata) likely came from the severe persecution he experienced as a servant of Jesus (see Acts 14:19; 2 Corinthians 6:4–10; 11:21–33). Unlike the physical mark of circumcision that false teachers in Galatia wanted to force on non-Jewish Christians, Paul's scars from suffering showed he was truly the servant…Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1717. let no man trouble me--by opposing my apostolic authority, seeing that it is stamped by a sure seal, namely, "I (in contrast to the Judaizing teachers who gloried in the flesh) bear (as a high mark of honor from the King of kings)." the marks--properly, marks branded on slaves to indicate their owners. So Paul's scars of wounds received for Christ's sake, indicate to whom he belongs, and in whose free and glorious service he is (2Co 11:23-25). The…Read the comment
