Galatians 3:8-9 King James Version (KJV)

8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

9 So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.


Galatians 3:8-9 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)
8 Also the Tanakh, foreseeing that God would consider the Gentiles righteous when they live by trusting and being faithful, told the Good News to Avraham in advance by saying, “In connection with you, all the Goyim will be blessed.” 9 So then, those who rely on trusting and being faithful are blessed along with Avraham, who trusted and was faithful.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.


8 The scripture is from God so of course it predicts what is to come, Paul is not questioning that but making it known to them. Faith it is by our faith in Christ that we are saved or justified. This promise was only fulfilled after the coming of Jesus because before hand it was only Israel and a select people that were blessed because of Israel, Christ changed the world which was what God had planned.


9 We are blessed because of the faith of Abraham, sometimes the faith of others is a blessing to us, because of his faith God’s plan happened, grace would come by God thru his descendent Jesus.
