| Sumario: | Baptism has long been a point of contention among Christians. One passage that may have more to offer than has previously been suggested, particularly with regard to the relationship between faith and baptism, is Gal. 3.27. Of special interest is the precise way that the two clauses pertaining to (i) baptism and (ii) putting on Christ are related. Usually, it has been understood that baptism is, in some sense, the means by which Christ is put on. But an exploration of ὅσος, which connects the two clauses, together with the study of Gal. 3.27 and its context, suggests that ‘putting on Christ’, which is best understood as the action of faith, is the appropriate response to baptism. |
