Commentary on the Epistle to the Colossians-John Calvin

There’s a particular intensity to Martin Luther’s engagement with the text of Galatians, a letter he famously called his own. In this audio presentation of his Commentary on St. Pauls Epistle to the Galatians, that intensity comes through not as a dry historical lecture, but as a living, urgent conversation about the core of Christian belief. Luther’s original Latin work, written in the early 16th century, is given voice here through Theodore Graebner’s careful translation, making the reformer’s powerful thoughts accessible. Guided by Timothy Perkins, each episode walks steadily through Paul’s arguments, verse by verse, unpacking Luther’s passionate defense of justification by faith alone and his exploration of Christian freedom. What you’ll hear is more than a historical artifact; it’s a deep, theological excavation that feels remarkably relevant. This podcast doesn’t shy away from the complexity and the confrontational nature of the material, instead treating it as a vital foundation for understanding a pivotal moment in religious history and its enduring spiritual questions. Whether you’re a student of Reformation history, a person of faith wrestling with doctrine, or simply curious about one of Christianity’s most influential figures, this series offers a direct line to Luther’s mind and heart as he grapples with a biblical book that shaped his world and continues to shape ours.
