<p>6:1 <i>Brothers, even if a man is caught in any sin</i><i>- </i>The Greek literally refers to a fall; and the fall in view is the falling from faith in grace of 5:4.</p><p><i>You who are spiritual</i>- Paul has been lamenting how the Galatians generally have left the way of the Spirit, granted to believers who have fallen upon Christ as Abraham's seed in faith alone. Paul seems to be advising the minority who remained faithful to that calling as to how they should deal with the many who were &quot;at fault&quot; in having rejected grace for legalism.</p><p><i>Restore </i><i>such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking to yourself</i>- &ldquo;Restore&rdquo; is elsewhere translated &quot;perfect&quot;. God is at work to perfect or literally 'mend' His people (s.w. Heb. 13:21; 1 Pet. 5:10). But He does so through our efforts. Our attempts to restore others therefore have His full co-working behind us. Note that like the parable of the lost sheep, the assumption is made that we will be successful in the restoration. We are to approach all such attempts, difficult and awkward as they are, with the full hope that there will be a positive outcome.</p><p><i>Lest you also be tempted</i>- Recognizing, in this context, that the temptation to legalism is every man's struggle. It's easy to forget this when dealing with legalistic brethren.</p>
