1599 Geneva Bible: “Spirtual Worship"

Galatians 5:5 (i) For we through the (ii) Spirit wait for the hope
of righteousness through faith.

i. He compares the new people with the old: for it is certain
that they (old Testament Faithful Israel) also did ground all their hope of justification and life in faith and not in circumcision, but their faith was wrapped in the external and ceremonial worship: but our (New Testament Christians) faith is bare and content with spiritual worship.
ii. Through the Spirit, which begets faith.
