Galatians 1:6-7
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
II. Loyalty to the Gospel[a]

- 1:6–10 In place of the usual thanksgiving (see note on Rom 1:8), Paul, with little to be thankful for in the Galatian situation, expresses amazement at the way his converts are deserting the gospel of Christ for a perverted message. He reasserts the one gospel he has preached (Gal 1:7–9) and begins to defend himself (Gal 1:10).
- 1:6 The one who called you: God or Christ, though in actuality Paul was the divine instrument to call the Galatians.
