Some men came down from Judea and taught the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised after the custom of Moses, you can’t be saved.”

ExplanationCommentary
Verse 1. Unless you be circumcised. Many who had been converted from Judaism, held that none, not even converted from paganism, could be saved, unless they were circumcised, and observed the other ceremonies of the law of Moses. Witham.—See Galatians 5:2.
The word for “brothers” here and where the context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.”
