Galatians and Romans: With Introduction and Notes (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Galatians and Romans: With Introduction and Notes

Moreover, if what we shall later discuss as the South Galatian hypothesis is accepted, the authen ticity of this epistle is made surer than ever. For in that case it reflects, as Sir William Ramsay has abundantly shown, circumstances in the life of the Galatian churches peculiar to a period which no author of a later date could have known, and which have only been recovered by modern methods of historical investigation. The history of Asia Minor passed through so many and such important changes in the latter half of the first century after Christ, that a later writer, according to the standards of historical method in those days, would have betrayedhis ignorance over and over again regarding the' period in which he professed to place this letter.
