Galatians 6:8
_ _ Translate, “He that soweth unto his own flesh,” with a view to fulfilling its desires. He does not say, “His spirit,” as he does say, “His flesh.” For in ourselves we are not spiritual, but carnal. The flesh is devoted to selfishness.
_ _ corruption — that is, destruction (Philippians 3:19). Compare as to the deliverance of believers from “corruption” (Romans 8:21). The use of the term “corruption” instead, implies that destruction is not an arbitrary punishment of fleshly-mindedness, but is its natural fruit; the corrupt flesh producing corruption, which is another word for destruction: corruption is the fault, and corruption the punishment (see on 1 Corinthians 3:17; 2 Peter 2:12). Future life only expands the seed sown here. Men cannot mock God because they can deceive themselves. They who sow tares cannot reap wheat. They alone reap life eternal who sow to the Spirit (Psalms 126:6; Proverbs 11:18; Proverbs 22:8; Hosea 8:7; Hosea 10:12; Luke 16:25; Romans 8:11; James 5:7). |
Galatians 6:8
For he that now soweth to the flesh — That follows the desires of corrupt nature. Shall hereafter of the flesh — Out of this very seed. Reap corruption — Death everlasting. But he that soweth to the Spirit — That follows his guidance in all his tempers and conversation. Shall of the Spirit — By the free grace and power of God, reap life everlasting. |
Galatians 6:8
For he that soweth to his (g) flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
(g) To the commodities of this present life. |
