For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.
All Commentaries on Galatians 2:18 Go To Galatians 2
Cornelius a Lapide
AD 1637
For if I build again—if I attribute justifying faith to the law—the things which I destroyed—i.e, the law, as justifying—I make myself a Transgressor. Like a Proteus, I change my faith at every wind. This is a fresh argument. If I do what the Jews falsely allege against me, I shall be a hypocrite, a destroyer in public of what I build again in private. But a hypocrite no one has charged me with being.
