Galatians 3:24 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Our school-master— The original does not signify a school-master, but "one who heads or conducts children to school."The ancients generally employed a person for this purpose; and if the Apostle be supposed to allude to this custom, his reasoning will appear exceedingly plain and conclusive. See the next verse, and on Romans 10:4 and the Introduction to my Commentary on the Old Testament.

Galatians 3:24

24 Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
