ACC ~ Galatians 2 v2c

SO AS NOT TO RUN VAINLY. MARIUS VICTORINUS: “So that I should not run or have run in vain.” That is [he says], “lest I should fail to preach a full gospel. For if I have preached anything less, I have run in vain or I now run in vain.” EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS 1.2.2.

TO WHOM ADDRESSED. AUGUSTINE: “So that I should not run or have run in vain” we should understand to be addressed as if in a question, not to those with whom he compared his gospel in private but to those to whom he was writing, so that it might appear that he was not running and had not run in vain from the fact that by the testimony of the others he was certified not to dissent from the truth of the gospel. EPISTLE TO THE GALATIANS 10 [1B.2.1-2].
