The Problem With Justification in the Christian Tradition
Luther was quite a many-sided rich character, he said. He would have radically disagreed with me about Galatians. But already in 1955 in one of the volumes of Church Dogmatics called Luther on his misreading of Galatian. So there's all sorts of issues then. It's comparatively simple if you start with the Bible and allow the Bible to tell you how you should use these words. And I want to say, I know what those questions are about. They can be extremely helpful partially but they can also be extremely puzzling. The problem is when a word that is in our translations of the Bible cuts loose and it gets on a tradition of its own."
