	USCCB - NAB - Galatians - Introduction
		If it is addressed to the Galatians in the north, the letter was probably written around A.D. 54 or 55, most likely from Ephesus after Paul's arrival there for a stay of several years on his third missionary journey (Acts 19; Acts 20:31).
		On the South Galatian theory, the date would be earlier, perhaps A.D. Involved is the question of how one relates the events of Gal 2:1-10 to the "Council of Jerusalem" described in Act 15 (see the notes on each passage).
		Galatians is thus a summary of basic Pauline theology.

		Thus the Epistle to the Ephesians is without an address, that to the Hebrews without a suitable introduction, that of James without a proper conclusion; the First Epistle of John lacks [64] both introduction and conclusion.
		NOW that T. Whittaker has made the views of van Manen on the Epistle to the Romans and the two Epistles to the Corinthians accessible to English readers, it is perhaps desirable to devote particular attention to the Epistle to the Galatians, especially as it enjoys a great reputation for authenticity.

	Epistle to the Galatians
		Galatians was the first New Testament book written, probably around 48-49 AD, just prior to the council of Acts 15 which forever settled the question as to whether the Gentiles needed to convert to Judaism in order to be Saved.
		Apparently, the Judaisers were lying to the Galatians and telling them Paul himself approved of their doctrine.
		Referring back to the point that the Torah is a tutor, and that one who has come into relationship with Christ, who yields to the Spirit, will naturally fulfill the spirit of the Torah in his behavior, and thus there is no need for his actions to be regulated by written ordinances.
