Commentary on St. Paul's Epistle to the Galatians

This is the theological detonator that sparked the Protestant Reformation. Written around 1516, Luther's verse-by-verse commentary on Paul's letter to the Galatian churches tackles the question that would define his legacy: how are sinners made right with God? Against the "Judaizers" who demanded circumcision and law-keeping, Luther mounts a passionate defense of Paul's explosive proclamation that righteousness comes through faith alone, not through works of the law. The commentary reveals a mind on fire, wrestling with Scripture in real time, working out ideas that would shatter medieval Christianity and remap the spiritual landscape of the West. This is Luther in his element: rigorous, polemical, and utterly convinced that Paul (and Scripture) demands a revolutionary reading. Whether you come as a scholar of Reformation history, a theology student, or a curious reader drawn to the roots of modern religious conflict, this is where it all began.
