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”).
