⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Paul's not writing solo, his whole crew is backing this message to the Galatian churches.

📚 Historical Context

Paul wrote his letter to the Galatians around 48-55 AD, addressing the churches he had established during his first missionary journey in the region of Galatia, which is in modern-day Turkey. In this verse, he includes greetings from the brethren with him, likely his companions or fellow believers, to emphasize unity and shared support for his message amid growing challenges from false teachers. This sets the stage for the letter's main theme of defending the gospel of grace against distortions.
