Galatians 5:16

Context
5:16 But I say, live 1  by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh. 2 

Galatians 5:22

Context

5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit 3  is love, 4  joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 5 

1 tn Grk “walk” (a common NT idiom for how one conducts one’s life or how one behaves).

2 tn On the term “flesh” (once in this verse and twice in v. 17) see the note on the same word in Gal 5:13.

3 tn That is, the fruit the Spirit produces.

4 sn Another way to punctuate this is “love” followed by a colon (love: joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control). It is thus possible to read the eight characteristics following “love” as defining love.

5 tn Or “reliability”; see BDAG 818 s.v. πίστις 1.a.
