The Epistle of to the GALATIANS

• Author: St. Paul had established churches in a number of cities in the Roman province of Galatia in Asia Minor. • Date: The reference to time & place in Galatians are unclear. • Major Theme: The true gospel vs. the false gospel. After initially believing in the gospel of Christ as a gift of God, many in Galatia had turned to the teaching of Jewish legalizers, who claimed that Christians must also follow the laws of the Old Covenant. St. Paul writes to call them back to “the grace of Christ” (1:6). • Subthemes: (1) a defense of St. Paul’s apostolic authority (1:1-2:21). (2) the gift of the to the Church (5:1-6:18). (3) the Cross of Christ (6:11-15). (4) the life of faith (2:15-4:7).
