Vincent's Word Studies in the NT

Galatians 2:10

Only. With only this stipulation.

We should remember [μ ν η μ ο ν ε υ ω μ ε ν]. The only instance in N. T. of this verb in the sense of beneficent care. No instance in LXX In Psalms 9:12, there is the thought but not the word.

The poor [τ ω ν π τ ω χ ω ν]. The poor Christians of Palestine. Comp. Acts 24:17; Romans 14:26; Romans 14:27; 1 Corinthians 16:3; 2 Corinthians 9:1. For the word, see on Matthew 5:3. In LXX ordinarily of those who are oppressors, or of those who are quiet in contrast with the lawless.

The same which [ο - α υ τ ο τ ο υ τ ο]. Lit. which, this very thing. The expression is peculiarly emphatic, and brings out the contrast between Judaising hostility and Paul's spirit of loving zeal. Rev. which very thing.
