‏ Galatians 2:1

Summary for Gal 2:1-10: 2:1-10  a During Paul’s second visit to Jerusalem, the other apostles affirmed his message. Traditionally, this passage has been seen as a description of the church council (Acts 15:1-41  b), but it is much more likely that Paul was talking about his previous visit to Jerusalem (Acts 11:30  c; 12:25  d; see Galatians Book Introduction, “Date of Writing”). 2:1  e Counting fourteen years from Paul’s conversion (1:15-17  f), instead of from his previous visit (1:18  g), fits well with Acts.

• That Barnabas was familiar to the Galatians suggests that the Galatians were evangelized during the first missionary journey (Acts 13:4–14:26  h; see Galatians Book Introduction, “Recipients”).
