The book, Studies in the Galatians, by Tom Wacaster was an excellent study and very well written. I felt he did a great job bringing others together to expand on some of the main points of this book. Right from the start, the author lets you know, in the introduction, a specific direction he is aiming for even if the introduction seems a little long. However, after watching it at the end, I enjoyed it more than when I first read it. When you look at it again, it made me understand the reading better. Additionally, the flow of the book was well organized, with the outline of the entire book coming after the introduction and the rest of the book broken down verse by verse, which grabs the reader's attention in a simple format. I really like the fact that he shared others' ideas and didn't hesitate to provide adequate references to let the reader know the correct source. Nonetheless, as we begin in the first chapter, Wacaster immediately began to make his comments regarding the scriptural reference, which also he did an excellent job of immediately moving into breaking down the verses. Here, Wacaster uses adequate references and places them in the right place to support his view of the chapter and verses. Interestingly, the first one that caught my attention was at the beginning of the book, the introduction, when Wacaster referenced Adam Clark explaining how "the Galatians were divided into three tribes" (Adam Clark). Most importantly, in a concise and timely manner, Wacaster takes into account the comments of others at the most appropriate time to support its arguments. Likewise, when it comes to the study of the Greek language, Wacaster uses verses in context as he often refers to the Greek translation of some. ...... middle of paper ......bbing. Additionally, Wacaster strategically placed Coffman's map of Judaism and Christianity next to his explanation of this part of his book. This is considerably another great example of compiling your resources and placing them in intended locations that highlight the previous material. As in chapter five, he uses William Hendriksen's "seed thoughts" and an excellent quote from Crouch in chapter six regarding Galatians 6:3. Overall, this well-written book was easy to read and understand. The more I read the book, the less I wanted to put it down. It was a strategic form and quotes from others often highlighted the material previously discussed. This book also reminds me that, depending on the type of book you're writing, sometimes it's ideal to get help from others and use other people's ideas alongside your material..
