Galatians – Backstory / Christory
Understanding the New Testament without grasping the overarching narrative of the Old Testament often leads to misconceptions about Jesus Christ's role and purpose in the Bible. Paul's letter to the Galatians is frequently misunderstood because many fail to appreciate how Paul's understanding of the Old Testament transformed in light of Christ. As a former Pharisee, Paul initially interpreted the Old Testament through traditional Jewish lenses. However, his encounter with Christ radically shifted his perspective, aligning it with Jesus' interpretation of Scripture. To fully grasp Paul's message in Galatians, it's essential to explore how Christ illuminated and transformed Paul's original understanding of the Old Testament narrative.
