Bible Commentary

In this third and final part of the study of the Minor Prophets, the writings of the Prophets Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi are examined.

This exposition of Galatians is clear, and easy to understand. The final two chapters on the application of this biblical truth to churches and the atmosphere created in churches that embrace Galatianism could hardly be more cogent.
