Oecumenius, on Gal 3:7

Oecumenius · c. A.D. 550
Gal 3:7 · Douay-Rheims
“Know ye therefore, that they who are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.”
On this verse:
“Since they were afraid to abandon the law, for fear that they fall away from the kinship of Abraham, he turns the argument the other way. The "then," [ἄρα] is "so therefore" [τοιγαροῦν]. "that those who are of faith." Therefore these were especially opposed to the law, scorning its antiquity. It must then be shown that faith was established before the law, and that above all by it one is pleasing to God from above.”
