On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

The identification of "the natural (Greek, 'animal-souled') man," with the "carnal" or fleshly man (1Co 2:14), shows that "the flesh" expresses human nature as estranged from God. TRENCH observes, as a proof of our fallen state, how much richer is every vocabulary in words for sins, than in those for graces.

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. 3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law. 4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

love--the leader of the band of graces (1Co 13:1-13). gentleness--Greek, "benignity," conciliatory to others; whereas "goodness," though ready to do good, has not such suavity of manner [JEROME]. ALFORD translates, "kindness." faith--"faithfulness"; opposed to "heresies" [BENGEL].

Jamieson, Fausset & Brown· Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible, 1871reformed

Love - The root of all the rest. Gentleness - Toward all men; ignorant and wicked men in particular. Goodness - The Greek word means all that is benign, soft, winning, tender, either in temper or behaviour.

Growth Vs Effort Galatians 5:24
Fruit grows on the abiding branch (5:22 + John 15) YET 'they that are of Christ have crucified the flesh' (5:24, active) — the passage holds both sanctification poles; the Depth-3 traditions drawer.

Fruit Test Matthew 7:17
'Every good tree bringeth forth good fruit' (G2590 + dendron G1186) — the 'known by its fruit' sayings make the vine discourse's demand; the fruit of the Spirit is how the good tree is known.
