SEV Biblia, Chapter 3:29

Y si vosotros sois de Cristo, ciertamente la Simiente de Abraham sois, y conforme a la promesa, los herederos.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Galatians 3:29

Verse 29. And if ye be
Christ's] Or, as several good MSS. read, If ye be one in Christ. If ye have all received justification through his blood, and the mind that was in him, then are ye Abraham's seed; ye are that real, spiritual posterity of Abraham, that other seed, to whom the promises were made; and then heirs, according to that promise, being fitted for the rest that remains for the people of God, that heavenly inheritance which was typified by the earthly Canaan, even to the Jews.

1. THE Galatians, it appears, had begun well, and for a time run well, but they permitted Satan to hinder, and they stopped short of the prize. Let us beware of those teachers who would draw us away from trusting in Christ crucified. By listening to such the Galatians lost their religion.

2. The temptation that leads us astray may be as sudden as it is successful. We may lose in one moment the fruit of a whole life! How frequently is this the case, and how few lay it to heart! A man may fall by the means of his understanding, as well as by means of his passions.

3. How strange is it that there should be found any backslider! that one who once felt the power of Christ should ever turn aside! But it is still stranger that any one who has felt it, and given in his life and conversation full proof that he has felt it, should not only let it slip, but at last deny that he ever had it, and even ridicule a work of grace in the heart! Such instances have appeared among men.

4. The Jewish covenant, the sign of which was circumcision, is annulled, though the people with whom it was made are still preserved, and they preserve the rite or sign. Why then should the covenant be annulled? This question admits a twofold answer. This covenant was designed to last only for a time, and when that time came, having waxed old, it vanished away. 2. It was long before that void, through want of the performance of the conditions. The covenant did not state merely, ye shall be circumcised, and observe all the rites and ceremonies of the law; but, ye shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, and your neighbour as yourself. This condition, which was the very soul of the covenant, was universally broken by that people. Need they wonder, therefore, that God has cast then off? Jesus alone can restore them, and him they continue to reject. To us the new covenant says the same things: Ye shall love the Lord, &c.; if we do not so, we also shall be cut off. Take heed, lest he who did not spare the natural branches, spare not thee; therefore, make a profitable use of the goodness and severity of God.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 29. For if ye be Christ's , etc..] Or seeing ye are his, not by creation only, but by the Father's gift to him, by the purchase of his own blood, by the power of his grace, making them willing to give up themselves to him; not only his by profession, saying they are the Lord's, calling themselves by his name; but by possession, Christ dwelling in their hearts by faith, and they having his Spirit as a spirit of regeneration and adoption: then are ye Abraham's seed ; not his natural but his spiritual seed, the seed that should come, and to whom the promises were made, ( Galatians 3:16,19) and so were upon an equal foot even with the Jews that believed: and heirs according to the promise ; being the children of God, they are heirs of God; and being the spiritual children of Abraham, the children of the promise, which are counted for the seed, they are, according to the promise made to Abraham and his spiritual seed, heirs of the blessings of the grace of life, and of the eternal inheritance; of the blessing of justification of life, and of everlasting salvation; of this world and of the world to come; of all the spiritual blessings of the covenant of grace, and of the incorruptible and undefiled inheritance of the saints in light; to which they are begotten through the abundant mercy of God, for which they are made meet by the grace of Christ; and to which they have a right by his justifying righteousness.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 26-29 - Real
Christians enjoy great privileges under the gospel; and are n longer accounted servants, but sons; not now kept at such a distance and under such restraints as the Jews were. Having accepted Chris Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, and relying on him alone for justification and salvation, they become the sons of God. But n outward forms or profession can secure these blessings; for if any ma have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. In baptism we put of Christ; therein we profess to be his disciples. Being baptized int Christ, we are baptized into his death, that as he died and rose again so we should die unto sin, and walk in newness and holiness of life The putting on of Christ according to the gospel, consists not i outward imitation, but in a new birth, an entire change. He who make believers to be heirs, will provide for them. Therefore our care mus be to do the duties that belong to us, and all other cares we must cas upon God. And our special care must be for heaven; the things of thi life are but trifles. The city of God in heaven, is the portion of child's part. Seek to be sure of that above all things __________________________________________________________________

Robertson's NT Word Studies

3:29 {If ye are
Christ's} (ei de humeis cristou). this is the test, not the accident of blood, pride of race or nation, habiliments or environment of dress or family, whether man or woman. Thus one comes to belong to the seed of Abraham and to be an heir according to promise.
