“‘The Epistle to the Galatians was a favorite of Luther’s… He found in it a source of strength for his own faith and life, and an armory of weapons for his reforming work… He came to think very little of his earlier commentaries. ‘They won’t do at all for this age ;’ he said, ‘they were only my first struggles against the confidence of works.’ But he rated his later exposition more highly. When the complete Latin edition of his works was in preparation a couple of years before his death, he said: ‘If they took my advice, they’d print only the books containing doctrine, like the Galatians.’” — From the Editor’s Preface
