Galatians 5:6 in context

The verses around it, from Galatians 5.

2 Take notice: I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all.

3 Again I testify to every man who gets himself circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.

4 You who are trying to be justified by the law have been severed from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

5 But by faith we eagerly await through the Spirit the hope of righteousness.

6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. All that matters is faith, expressed through love.

7 You were running so well. Who has obstructed you from obeying the truth?

8 Such persuasion does not come from the One who calls you.

9 A little leaven works through the whole batch of dough.

10 I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is troubling you will bear the judgment, whoever he may be.
