The debate surrounding that verse is legend and the two schools of thought are (1) this only applies to the spiritual standing of people in the eyes of God, it does not implicate social distinctions and gender roles on earth; and (2) this is not just about our spiritual standing but is also about how we relate to each other and treat each other in the here and now.<sup id="cite_ref-rei_50-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-rei-50"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>49<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Position (1) emphasises the immediate context of the verse and notes that it is embedded in a discussion about justification: our relationship with God.

The first interpretation states that Paul's words eliminate the biological differences between males and females and thus calls gender roles into question. Nancy Bedford says that this does not mean that there is no distinction between males and females; instead, it means that there is no room for gender hierarchy in the gospel.<sup id="cite_ref-:7_64-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:7-64"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>63<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The second interpretation, outlined by Jeremy Punt, argues that "there is no longer [...] male or female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus" refers only to the universality of salvation through Christ—which does not discriminate ethnicity, social status or gender—but is not intended to communicate any ideology of gender equality.<sup id="cite_ref-PostColonial_65-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-PostColonial-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>64<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Punt contends that here, Paul's intention was to fix social conflicts rather than to alter gender norms; by stating the importance of becoming one in Christ, Paul tries to give his society a new identity (i.e., the identity "in Christ"), thereby putatively encouraging concord between believers—without thence advocating any substantive changes to the rôle or rights of women.<sup id="cite_ref-PostColonial_65-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-PostColonial-65"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>64<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Meaning_of_"Israel_of_God""><span id="Meaning_of_.22Israel_of_God.22"></span>Meaning of "Israel of God"</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Epistle_to_the_Galatians&action=edit&section=25" title="Edit section: Meaning of "Israel of God""><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Many scholars debate the meaning of the phrase "Israel of God" in Galatians 6:16, wherein Paul wishes for "peace and mercy" to be "even upon the Israel of God".<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTESchreiner2010381_66-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESchreiner2010381-66"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As Schreiner explains, scholars debate whether "Israel of God" refers to ethnically Jewish believers "within the church of Jesus Christ", or to the church of Christ as a whole (Jewish and Gentiles all included).<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTESchreiner2010381_66-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESchreiner2010381-66"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Those who believe that "Israel of God" only refers to ethnically Jewish believers, argue that had Paul meant the entire church, he would use the word "mercy" before "peace", because Paul "sees peace as the petition for the church, while mercy is the request for unredeemed Jews".<sup id="cite_ref-67" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-67"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>66<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-68" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-68"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>67<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Other scholars, such as G.
