Download or read book Nicholas of Lyra, Literal Commentary on Galatians written by and published by Medieval Institute Publications. This book was released on 2015-12-31 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though little-known today, Nicholas of Lyra's commentaries are arguably among the most widely-read and influential commentaries of all time. For more than two hundred years, from the time of their composition, well into the Reformation era, they were copied and recopied, printed and reprinted, as an indispensable guide to the meaning of scripture. Naumann presents here a complete translation of Lyra's literal commentary on Galatians in English for the first time, with a freshly-edited Latin text, and provides ample notes on its significance in relation to the works of previous authors.
