Commentaries and Concordances

PNT:

4:19 My little children. He addresses them very tenderly as their spiritual parent.
Of whom I travail in birth again. He is more than a father; he travails for them as a mother. He had done so when they were converted; he did not now again
Until Christ be formed in you. Until they were so matured in Christ that they would cling to the gospel.

WES:

4:19 My little children - He speaks as a parent, both with authority, and the most tender sympathy, toward weak and sickly children. Of whom I travail in birth again - As I did before, Gal 4:13, in vehement pain, sorrow, desire, prayer. Till Christ be formed in you - Till there be in you all the mind that was in him.

MHC:

4:19,20 The Galatians were ready to account the apostle their enemy, but he assures them he was their friend; he had the feelings of a parent toward them. He was in doubt as to their state, and was anxious to know the result of their present delusions. Nothing is so sure a proof that a sinner has passed into a state of justification, as Christ being formed in him by the renewal of the Holy Spirit; but this cannot be hoped for, while men depend on the law for acceptance with God.
