The Truth of the Gospel: An Exposition of Galatians
In this intensive exegesis of the Epistle to the Galatians, renowned German theologian Gerhard Ebeling strives to open "our eyes to the explosive force that produced this text, a force which, through this text, can explode over and over again." Using rigorous technical tools, Ebeling interprets Galatians in such a way that "the truth of the Gospel" confronts the general reader as well as the specialist. He clarifies and emphasizes the relevance of this explication to the real-life struggles of contemporary Christians.

Endorsements
"In his final lecture course on Galatians Ebeling has returned to New Testament exegesis with which he began his long and distinguished theological life. One can only admire the unity he has achieved between exegetical detail, theological comprehension, and human honesty and profundity."
– Hans Dieter Betz, Shailer Matthews Professor Emeritus of New Testament, University of Chicago and author of Galatians: A Commentary in the Hermeneia series.
"In Gerhard Ebeling's mature work on Galatians – which he labels a Lesehilfe (reading aid) rather than a commentary – the great Zurich dogmatician creatively addresses the text and demonstrates what it means to be addressed by it."
– Harold H. Oliver, Emeritus Professor of New Testament and Theology, School of Theology, Boston University
"Ebeling is an able interpreter of Paul's epistle to the Galatians. He brings to the text his expertise as a Martin Luther scholar and 'the focused interest of a systematic theologian....' Those who read this commentary will undoubtedly find Ebeling's keen theological insight very helpful both for understanding Galatians and for proclaiming the truth of the gospel."
– David E. Garland, Associate Dean and Professor of Christian Scriptures, Truett Theological Seminary, Baylor University
