📚 Historical Context
In the first century AD, the Apostle Paul wrote his letter to the Galatians to confront false teachers who were undermining his authority by promoting a distorted gospel that mixed Jewish law with faith. Paul was emphasizing that his message came directly from divine revelation through Jesus Christ, rather than from human sources like other apostles or traditions. This defense of his apostleship was crucial in the early church to preserve the purity of the gospel amid growing controversies.
