Die Adressaten des Galaterbriefes (Forschungen Zur Religion Und Literatur Des Alten Und Neuen Testaments) (German Edition)

In Gal 4,8-20, Paul argues against the veneration of the Roman emperor. Thus, Christian mission had to precede the Roman cult - a historical situation to be found only in the southern part of the province of Galatia. Thus, the recipients of the epistle are likely to have lived in South Galatia.
