Abstract

Galatians 3:10 is a crux interpretum in Pauline studies. This article argues in favour of the traditional reading of this text, against more recent proposals by representatives of the New Perspective on Paul. It does so by focusing specifically on echoes to Isa 52:13–53:12, also known as the Fourth Servant Song, in the Letter to the Galatians. With these echoes, it is argued, Paul supplied the readers with sufficient information to understand Gal 3:10 correctly.
