Introduction

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:1 -

Paul G3972, an apostle G652 (not sent from men G444 nor G3761 through G1223 human G444 agency G1223, but through G1223 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 and God G2316 the Father G3962, who raised G1453 Him from the dead G3498),

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:2 - and all G3956 the brothers G80 who are with me,

To the churches G1577 of Galatia G1053:

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:3 -

Grace G5485 to you and peace G1515 from [fn]God G2316 the Father G3962 and our Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547,

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:4 - who gave G1325 Himself G1438 for our sins G266 so G3704 that G3704 He might rescue G1807 us from this G3588 present G1764 evil G4190 [fn]age G165, according G2596 to the will G2307 of our God G2316 and Father G3962,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:5 - to whom G3739 be the glory G1391 forevermore G165. Amen G281.

Distortion of the Gospel

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:6 -

I am G2296 amazed G2296 that you are so G3779 quickly G5030 deserting G3346 G575 Him who called G2564 you [fn]by the grace G5485 of Christ G5547, for a different G2087 gospel G2098,

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:7 - which G3739 is not just another G243 account; but there are some G5100 who are disturbing G5015 you and want G2309 to distort G3344 the gospel G2098 of Christ G5547.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:8 - But even G2532 if G1437 we, or G2228 an angel G32 from heaven G3772, should preach G2097 to you a gospel G2097 contrary G3844 to what G3739 we have preached G2097 to you, he is to be [fn]accursed G331!
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:9 - As we have said G4280 before G4280, even G2532 now G737 I say G3004 again G3825: if G1487 anyone G5100 is preaching G2097 to you a gospel G2097 contrary G3844 to what G3739 you received G3880, he is to be [fn]accursed G331!
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:10 -

For am I now G737 seeking G3982 the G3982 favor G3982 of G3982 people G444, or G2228 of God G2316? Or G2228 am I striving G2212 to please G700 people G444? If G1487 I were still G2089 trying to please G700 people G444, I would not be a bond-servant G1401 of Christ G5547.

Paul Defends His Ministry

(cf. Act 9:1–25 )
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:11 -

For I would have G1107 you know G1107, brothers G80 and sisters, that the gospel G2098 which was preached G2097 by me is not [fn]of human G444 invention G2596.

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:12 - For I neither G3761 received G3880 it from man G444, nor G3777 was I taught G1321 it, but I received it through G1223 a revelation G602 of Jesus G2424 Christ G5547.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:13 -

For you have heard G191 of my former G4218 way G391 of G391 life G391 in Judaism G2454, how G3754 I used to persecute G1377 the church G1577 of God G2316 beyond G2596 G5236 measure G5236 and tried to destroy G4199 it;

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:14 - and I was advancing G4298 in Judaism G2454 beyond G5228 many G4183 of my contemporaries G4915 among G1722 my [fn]countrymen G1085, being G5225 more G4056 extremely G4056 zealous G2207 for my ancestral G3967 traditions G3862.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:15 - But when G3753 [fn]He who had set G873 me apart G873 even from my mother’s G3384 womb G2836 and called G2564 me through G1223 His grace G5485 was pleased G2106
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:16 - to reveal G601 His Son G5207 in me so G2443 that G2443 I might preach G2097 Him among G1722 the Gentiles G1484, I did not immediately G2112 consult G4323 with [fn]flesh G4561 and blood G129,
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:17 - nor G3761 did I go G424 up to Jerusalem G2414 to those G3588 who were apostles G652 before G4253 me; but I went G565 away G565 to Arabia G688, and returned G5290 once G3825 more G3825 to Damascus G1154.
(cf. Act 9:26–31 )
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:18 -

Then G1899 three G5140 years G2094 later G3326 I went G424 up to Jerusalem G2414 to [fn]become G2477 acquainted G2477 with G2477 [fn]Cephas G2786, and stayed G1961 with him for fifteen G1178 days G2250.

Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:19 - But I did not see G3708 another G2087 one G2087 of the apostles G652 except G1508 [fn]James G2385, the Lord’s G2962 brother G80.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:20 - (Now G1161 in what G3739 I am writing G1125 to you, [fn]I assure G2400 you before G1799 God G2316 that I am not lying G5574.)
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:21 - Then G1899 I went G2064 into the regions G2824 of Syria G4947 and Cilicia G2791.
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:22 - I was still unknown G50 by [fn]sight G4383 to the churches G1577 of Judea G2449 which are in Christ G5547;
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:23 - but they only G3440 kept hearing G191, “The man who once G4218 persecuted G1377 us is now G3568 preaching G2097 the faith G4102 which G3739 he once G4218 tried to destroy G4199.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGal 1:24 - And they were glorifying G1392 God G2316 [fn]because G1722 of me.
