Greek Webinar: Galatians 1 in Sinaiticus
This week we tried something new again and translated six verses from Galatians 1 in a digital image of Sinaiticus, courtesy of BibleWorks 10.

I read out what people type so everyone can hear it, but bring yourselves next week with a microphone….
Galatians (Concordia Commentary), by A. Andrew Das
The purpose of the Concordia Commentary series is to serve “pastors, missionaries, and teachers of the Scriptures to convey God’s Word with greater clarity, understanding, and faithfulness to the divine intent of the text” (x).

The volume is structured into three parts: justification, the gospel and ethics. Each section includes a number of essays from a wide range of scholars of different disciplines and academic interests. While an extended review of every essay is certainly unnecessary in this forum, a brief….
My Recently Published Articles
I recently updated my publications page as a way of making my work easily available to any who might be interested in the topics addressed. I uploaded PDFs of my three peer-reviewed articles, which may be of interest to anyone working in these areas. Any feedback is appreciated. Scacewater, Todd. “Galatians 2:11-21 and the Interpretive Context of ‘Works of the Law’.” Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society 56 (2013), 307-23. I argue here that Gal 2:15-21 should be interpreted in…
