Galatians 1:16
Compare all
14 And I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries in my own nation, abeing more exceedingly zealous bfor the traditions of my fathers.  
15 But when it pleased God, awho separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace,  
16 ato reveal His Son in me, that bI might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with cflesh and blood,  
17 nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

18 Then after three years aI went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and remained with him fifteen days.  
19 But aI saw none of the other apostles except bJames, the Lord’s brother.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Galatians 1:15   Galatians 1:17 >>


Galatians 1:16

To reveal his Son in me - By the powerful operation of his Spirit, II Corinthians 4:6; as well as to me, by the heavenly vision. That I might preach him to others - Which I should have been ill qualified to do, had I not first known him myself. I did not confer with flesh and blood - Being fully satisfied of the divine will, and determined to obey, I took no counsel with any man, neither with my own reason or inclinations, which might have raised numberless objections.
