Introductory Matters

Author
Paul

Date
Paul has visited the area at least once, so that would date the letter no earlier than 49AD.
If Paul has visited the area at least twice, then the earliest date would be 53AD.

Location of Galatian Churches
The region of Galatia includes the cities of Posodian Antioch, Iconium, Lystra, Derbe
There has been debate as to whether Paul was writing to churches in North Galatia or South Galatia.

Who are the Galatian "agitators"?
We'll identify them, as we work our way through the text.
