Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

15 We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles, 16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Peter was the apostle to them; and the ceremonial law, though dead with Christ, yet not being as yet buried, he connived at the respect kept up for it. But Paul was the apostle of the Gentiles; and, though he was a Hebrew of the Hebrews, yet he adhered to pure Christianity.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
