G3588–ὁ–ho

From those leaders I gained nothing new. Whether they were men of importance or not, matters nothing to me--God recognizes no external distinctions. To me, at any rate, the leaders imparted nothing new.

Indeed, when they saw that I was entrusted with the preaching of the Good News to the Gentiles as Peter had been with that to the Jews--

τὸ to “the”τῆς tēs “of the”τῆς tēs “of the”

for He who had been at work within Peter with a view to his Apostleship to the Jews had also been at work within me with a view to my Apostleship to the Gentiles--

ὁ ho “the [One]”τῆς tēs “of the”τὰ ta “the”

and when they perceived the mission which was graciously entrusted to me, they (that is to say, James, Peter, and John, who were considered to be the pillars of the Church) welcomed Barnabas and me to their fellowship on the understanding that we were

τὴν tēn “the”τὴν tēn “which”οἱ hoi “those”τὰ ta “the”τὴν tēn “the”

Only they urged that we should remember their poor--a thing which was uppermost in my own mind.

τῶν tōn “the”

For until certain persons came from James he had been accustomed to eat with Gentiles; but as soon as these persons came, he withdrew and separated himself for fear of the Circumcision party.

And along with him the other Jews also concealed their real opinions, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their lack of straightforwardness.

οἱ hoi “the”τῇ tēa “by the”

As soon as I saw that they were not walking uprightly in the spirit of the Good News, I said to Peter, before them all, "If you, though you are a Jew, live as a Gentile does, and not as a Jew, how can you make the Gentiles follow Jewish customs?

τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τῷ tō “<the>”τὰ ta “the”

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ that lives in me; and the life which I now live in the body I live through faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself up to death on my behalf.

τῇ tēa “that”τοῦ tou “from the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τοῦ tou “the [One who]”

I do not nullify the grace of God; for if acquittal from guilt is obtainable through the Law, then Christ has died in vain."

τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

You foolish Galatians! Whose sophistry has bewitched you--you to whom Jesus Christ has been vividly portrayed as on the Cross?

τῇ tēa “the”

Answer me this one question, "Is it on the ground of your obedience to the Law that you received the Spirit, or is it because, when you heard, you believed?"

τὸ to “the”

He who gives you His Spirit and works miracles among you--does He do so on the ground of your obedience to the Law, or is it the result of your having heard and believed:

Ὁ Ho “The [One]”τὸ to “the”

even as Abraham believed God, and his faith was placed to his account as righteousness?

τῷ tō “<the>”

Notice therefore that those who possess faith are true sons of Abraham.

οἱ hoi “those”

And the Scripture, foreseeing that in consequence of faith God would declare the nations to be free from guilt, sent beforehand the Good News to Abraham, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed."

ἡ hē “the”τὰ ta “the”ὁ ho “<the>”τῷ tō “<the>”τὰ ta “the”

So we see that it is those who possess faith that are blessed with believing Abraham.

οἱ hoi “those”τῷ tō “the”

All who are depending upon their own obedience to the Law are under a curse, for it is written, "Cursed is every one who does not remain faithful to all the precepts of the Law, and practise them."

τοῖς tois “which”τῷ tō “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τοῦ tou “<the>”

It is evident, too, that no one can find acceptance with God simply by obeying the Law, because "the righteous shall live by faith,"

τῷ tō “<the>”ὁ ho “The”

and the Law has nothing to do with faith. It teaches that "he who does these things shall live by doing them."

ὁ ho “<the>”ὁ ho “The [one]”

Christ has purchased our freedom from the curse of the Law by becoming accursed for us--because "Cursed is every one who is hanged upon a tree."

τῆς tēs “the”τοῦ tou “of the”ὁ ho “who”

Our freedom has been thus purchased in order that in Christ Jesus the blessing belonging to Abraham may come upon the nations, so that through faith we may receive the promised Spirit.

τὰ ta “the”ἡ hē “the”τοῦ tou “<the>”τὴν tēn “the”τοῦ tou “of the”τῆς tēs “<the>”

(Now the promises were given to Abraham and to his seed. God did not say "and to seeds," as if speaking of many, but "and to your seed," since He spoke of only one--and this is Christ.)

τῷ tō “<the>”αἱ hai “the”τῷ tō “to the”τοῖς tois “<the>”τῷ tō “to the”

I mean that the Covenant which God had already formally made is not abrogated by the Law which was given four hundred and thirty years later--so as to annul the promise.

τοῦ tou “<the>”ὁ ho “<the>”τὸ to “<the>”τὴν tēn “the”

For if the inheritance comes through obedience to Law, it no longer comes because of a promise. But, as a matter of fact, God has granted it to Abraham in fulfilment of a promise.

ἡ hē “the”τῷ tō “<the>”ὁ ho “<the>”
