Context of Galatians 1:5

3Grace and peace to you from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, 4who gave himself for our sins to rescue us from this present evil age according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory forever and ever! Amen. 6I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are following a different gospel – 7not that there really is another gospel, but there are some who are disturbing you and wanting to distort the gospel of Christ.

Commentaries on Galatians 1:5

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 5To whom be glory for ever - Let him have the glory to whom alone it is due, for having delivered us from the present evil world, and from all bondage to Mosaic rites and ceremonies.Read the comment
• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 5To whom be glory … - Let Him have all the praise and honor of the plan and its execution. It is not uncommon for Paul to introduce an ascription of praise in the midst of an argument: see the note at Romans 1:25. It results from the strong desire which he had, that all the glory should be given to God, and showed that he believed that all blessings had their origin in God, and that God should be always acknowledged.Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 5We should thank God alone for salvation because it is his work alone.Read the comment
• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 55. be glory--rather, as Greek, "be the glory"; the glory which is peculiarly and exclusively His. Compare Note, see on Ep 3:21.Read the comment
