In the first half of this chapter, Paul scolded the GalatiansYou know how sometimes, as a parent, - when you're very worried about your child–maybe they did not arrive home on time • when they finally show up, your worry turns to anger ◦ if ever our lectures were rougher than they needed to be, ◦ it was because we had agonized over their safety • I think that's a little piece of what is happening here ◦ Paul has called the Galatians "foolish" and asked "Who has bewitched you?" ◦ that is because they had him worried about the stability of their faith - it is often the people who are most concerned with pleasing God, • that are misled by false preachers and teachers ◦ they desire so much to be absolutely right with God that they fall victim to someone who seems knowledgeable • anyway, Paul' agitation rises to the surface in these short, clipped statements that barely say enough - here in verse 15, he presents Abraham as an example of being true to a promise
