This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Gal 2:5. Τῇ ὑποταγῇ, by subjection) There is here a limitation. We would willingly have yielded for love [but not in the way of subjection].-ἡ ἀλήθεια) the truth of the Gospel, the pure Gospel, not another, ch. Gal 1:6 : which false brethren attempt to substitute. The same mode of speaking is found, Gal 2:14; Col 1:5. Truth, precise, unaccommodating, abandons nothing, that belongs to itself, admits nothing, that is inconsistent with it.-ὑμᾶς, you) Greeks. We defended for your sakes, what you now reject.
