The Pulpit Commentary - Galatians 1:11-24

Paul's personal grasp of the gospel. Paul, as we have seen, is so certain of the gospel of grace being the only gospel for sinful men, that he is prepared to pronounce an anathema on all who preach any other gospel. Lest it might be supposed that he took up this intolerant position rashly, he now proceeds to give us a short autobiography, in which he shows how he had received the gospel, and what a hold it had upon him. Let us notice the salient points in this narrative. I. HIS LIFE... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Galatians 1:11-24

Position. "For I make known to you, brethren, as touching the gospel which was preached by me." To the remarkable outburst of feeling with which the apostle approaches the Galatians, succeeds affectionate, calm statement. He addresses them now as brethren. His object in writing to them is not to excommunicate them, but to bring them back from their error. Against the misrepresentations of the Judaists he wishes to make known to them as his brethren his exact position, touching the gospel... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Galatians 1:12

For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it ( οὐδὲ γὰρ ἐγὼ παρὰ ἀνθρώπου παρέλαβον αὐτό οὔτε ἐδιδάχθην ); for neither at the hand of man did I myself receive it or was taught it. The "for" introduces a consideration fortifying the foregoing affirmation, that the apostle's gospel was not in its characteristic complexion human; it was no wonder that it was not; for neither was it human in its origin. The "neither" ( οὐδὲ ) points forward to the whole... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Galatians 1:11

But I certify you - I make known to you; or, I declare to you; see 1 Corinthians 15:1. Doubtless this had been known to them before, but he now assures them of it, and goes into an extended illustration to show them that he had not received his authority from man to preach the gospel To state and prove this is the main design of this chapter.Is not after man - The Greek text: “Not according to man”; see Galatians 1:1. That is, he was not appointed by man, nor did he have any human instructor to... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Galatians 1:12

For I neither received it of man - This is very probably said in reply to his opponents, who had maintained that Paul had derived his knowledge of the gospel from other people, since he had not been personally known to the Lord Jesus, or been of the number of those whom Jesus called to be his apostles. In reply to this, he says, that he did not receive his gospel in any way from man.Neither was I taught it - That is, by man. He was not taught it by any written account of it, or by the... read more

Galatians 1:11-12. But I certify you, brethren He does not, till now, give them even this appellation; that the gospel which was preached by me Among you; is not after man Of mere human authority and invention; is not from man, not by man, nor suited to the taste of man; for I neither received it of man From the authority or interposition of any man; neither was I taught it By any writing or any human method of instruction; but by revelation of Jesus Christ Who communicated to me... read more

Donald C. Fleming

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Galatians 1:11-24

Paul’s gospel came direct from God (1:11-24)Again Paul emphasizes that the gospel he preaches was not of human invention and came from no human source. He received it through the direct work of God in him (11-12). He supports this claim by pointing out that his preaching of this gospel has nothing to do with his religious background. He had been brought up a strict Jew, opposed to Christianity, educated in the law and obedient to the traditions (13-14).Nor did any of the apostles, leading... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Galatians 1:11

For I make known unto you, brethren, as touching the gospel which was preached by me, that it is not after man. For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.Paul's affirmation that he possessed a personal revelation from the Lord of glory which had endowed him with full and complete knowledge of the gospel was indeed bold and astonishing. It cannot be wondered that some of his contemporaries were concerned about whether or not... read more
