"Longenecker provides a good commentary for discussion of the issues involved. It&#x27;s one of the more in-depth commentaries on Galatians, so it provides a good entry to some of the technical issues involved in interpretation. I was frustrated with some of Longenecker&#x27;s theological conclusions however. He supports Hays&#x27; reading of &quot;the faith of Jesus Christ,&quot; but doesn&#x27;t seem to me to carry the implications of that view any farther than in translation. Unfortunately, he still sees Galatians as addressing the dual problems of legalism/nomism, which don&#x27;t see to me to fit Paul&#x27;s Jewish view of the purpose/efficacy of the Law. While this commentary is helpful in describing the issues related to Galatians, it doesn&#x27;t offer many unique insights into those issues."
