How many years after Pentecost did Paul write the book of Galatians?
Paul wrote the book of Galatians approximately 22 years after Pentecost. The transcript states it was about 20 to 22 years after Pentecost, a long time, when Paul wrote by inspiration. This timing is given in the context discussing Jerusalem leaders and Paul's gospel.
Les explains that Paul wrote Galatians by inspiration roughly 20 to 22 years after Pentecost, calling it a long time. During that interval the Jerusalem leaders still considered themselves “somewhat,” but their former authority was slipping away. Paul had refused to give place by subjection for even an hour, so the truth of the gospel—Paul's gospel of grace—might continue with the Gentiles. Their earlier prominence came from being in charge, as when believers sold property and laid it at the apostles' feet, and even Barnabas did the same.
