Who were the Galatians?
According to one theory, the Galatians Paul addressed were in the southern part of Galatia, primarily in the cities Acts 13–14 records him visiting: Antioch in Pisidia, Lystra, Iconium, and Derbe (Acts 13–14).
Paul would have written to these churches during AD 48–57—either before or shortly after the Jerusalem Council, held circa AD 49 (or 51).
Another theory places the Galatian churches in the northern part of the region, corresponding to the mentions of Paul visiting Galatia in Acts 16:6 and 18:23.
In this case, Paul’s letter would have been written during his second or third missionary journeys (circa AD 49–57), but likely before he wrote Romans (mid-50s AD).
