Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Galatians 1:18-19

Galatians 1:18-19. Then, after three years Wherein I had given full proof of my apostleship; I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter And converse with him; and abode with him fifteen days During which they doubtless discoursed at large together on the mutual success of their ministry. “This being Paul’s first visit to Jerusalem since his conversion, the brethren there shunned him, suspecting that he feigned himself a disciple with a view to betray them. But Barnabas, who probably had... read more

Galatians 1:20-24. Now the things which I write unto you With respect to all these circumstances of them; I lie not As I affirm before God, who searcheth the heart, and from whom nothing is hid. Afterward Departing from Jerusalem; I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia To exercise my ministry there, and, if possible, to bring those among whom I was born and brought up, to the knowledge of Christ and his gospel. It appears from Acts 9:30, that some of the brethren in Jerusalem,... read more

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 1:19

But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord' s brother. Now touching the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.Save James ... The frequent persecutions might have caused the other apostles to be absent from the city; or they might have been engaged in various preaching missions in Judea. Later, even Peter was forced to flee the city.The Lord's brother ... This was one of the persons mentioned as brothers and sister of Jesus, children born to Mary and Joseph... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Galatians 1:21

Then I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.It is hard to be patient with commentators who find some big "difficulty" in equating what is said here with the Lukan account in Acts, where it is related that the brethren, fearing for Paul's life, "brought him down to Caesarea and sent him forth to Tarsus" (Acts 9:30). There is no difficulty. Tarsus is the chief city of Cilicia; and that was exactly where Luke says Barnabas found Paul and brought him to Antioch, the capital of Syria; and the... read more

Galatians 1:20. Before God, I lie not.— A revelation of the facts and doctrines of Christianity immediately from Jesus Christ himself, without the assistance of any human teacher, so wonderfully agreeing in all its branches with that which the Lord Jesus Christ had taught on earth, both before and after his resurrection, was so extraordinary an event, and of so great importance to those whom St. Paul visited, and to whom he wrote, that one cannot wonder he should think proper to assert it in so... read more
