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
John of Damascus
AD 749
When they say that he who does not keep the law is a transgressor, he says the exact opposite, calling a transgressor the person who keeps the law. It is like saying: The law has ceased, as we confessed, and so, having abandoned it, we have taken refuge with the salvation which is from faith. If, then, we contest about the application of the law, we become transgressor of the same, inasmuch as we contest about keeping what has been dissolved by God.
