He is talking about the preaching of the Gospel, by the Apostolic eye witnesess, not the Judaizers.
Ga 3:8 And the
scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith,
preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.
The passages I referenced prove what I said. Paul says, "For I received of the Master
that which I also delivered unto you", meaning that he delivered to them what he himself had received, and then he quotes directly word for word verbatim from the Gospel we now know as Luke.
1 Corinthians 11:23-25 ASV
23
For I received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was betrayed took bread;
[Luke 22:19a]
24 and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, This is my body, which is for you: this do in remembrance of me.
[Luke 22:19]
25 In like manner also the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood:
[Luke 22:a-b] this do, as often as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
Luke 22:19-20 ASV
19 And he took bread,
[1Cor 11:23b] and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
[1Cor 11:24]
20 And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood,
[1Cor 1:25a-b] even that which is poured out for you.
This passage from Luke 22:19-20 was given to Paul, according to his own testimony, and he says he also delivered it unto the Corinthians: that is surely speaking of a writing, and the writing is the Gospel we now know as Luke, obviously, from the quote of Luke 22:19-20 found in this epistle to the Corinthians. Paul then says the same again, later in the epistle, which I also referenced in my previous reply.
1 Corinthians 14:36 ASV
36 What? was it from you that the word of God went forth?
or came it unto you alone?
The Word of Elohim had come to them: the Gospel we now know as Luke.
1 Corinthians 14:37-38
37 If any man thinketh himself to be a prophet, or spiritual,
let him take knowledge of the things which I write unto you,
that they are the commandment(s)
of the Lord.
38 But if any man is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
The things Paul writes to them concern the commandments of the Master, and he is reminding them that he speaks of that which he had received, which he had also delivered unto them: the Gospel we now know as Luke. And the next chapter is still the same passage and thus the same context, and he reminds them again therein that he had delivered unto them what he himself had also received: the Gospel now known as Luke.
1 Corinthians 15:1-8 ASV
1 Now I make known unto you brethren,
the gospel which I preached unto you,
which also ye received, wherein also ye stand,
2 by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.
3
For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received: that Christ died for our sins
according to the scriptures;
[Gospel of Luke]
4 and that he was buried;
and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;
[Gospel of Luke]
5 and that he appeared to Cephas;
[Luke 24:34] then to the twelve;
[Luke 24:36]
6 then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once,
[Gospel of Peter] of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep;
7 then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles;
8 and last of all, as to the child untimely born, he appeared to me also.
Therefore it is imperative that one understands where Paul, (Shaul at this point), did indeed receive what he had also delivered to his congregations, obviously including also the Galatians according to what he writes to them in Gal 3:1, (as shown in my previous reply). Where did Paul receive his Gospel? He received it immediately upon his initial conversion, right after the appearance of the Master to him near Damascus, and it was given to him by Hananyah, (Ananias), when Hananyah was commanded by the Master to seek out Paul, (Shaul), and go lay
the Power upon him so that Paul might receive sight.
All one needs to be able to understand this is to understand that the word
hand in Hebrew-Biblical thought represents
power. Hananyah did not necessarily lay his own physical hands on Paul, and the Greek text does not say that, it rather says he laid
the hands, not
his hands, upon Paul, (Acts 9:12, Acts 9:17). So Hananyah laid
the Power upon Paul, and the Power is the Word, and therefore surely the Testimony of the Master in the Gospel accounts in this case: for Paul already knew the rest of the scripture found in the Hebrew scriptures, but was blind to what they truly teach and preach, and it is the Testimony of the Master which expounds all things of the Torah, Prophets, and Writings in the Hebrew scriptures.
Hananyah gave Paul a record of what has now come to be known as the Gospel of Luke. And when Hananyah did so, what then was it which he admonished Paul to do? Hananyah admonished Paul to arise and be immersed, (Acts 22:16). Immerse in what? Immersion is not literal water immersion: Biblical immersion is immersion into the Word of Elohim. Thus Paul went into Arabia, (for six months, but that is another line of discussion), and he immersed in the Gospel which Hananyah had laid upon him: the Power of Elohim, the Word of Elohim, and in this case it was the Gospel we now know as Luke by way of the quote we have from that Gospel account in 1Cor 11:23-25.
Therefore the Galatians, according to Gal 3:1, had indeed begun in the Spirit, which is the Testimony of the Master, which is Spirit, (Jhn 6:63), for Paul had delivered unto the Galatians that which he himself had also received, just as he says he did with the Corinthians. The Testimony of the Master in the Gospel accounts is the new Spirit of the new-renewed covenant as foretold in Ezekiel the Prophet which passage references were already posted in my previous reply, and the outward, carnal minded, physical teachings and interpretations of the Sanhedrin dogmas and decrees, and of the Chief Priests, Sadducees, Pharisees, and Scribes, were in direct opposition to the Testimony of the Master which is Spirit and therefore spiritual.
Revolting from the Testimony of the Master, (in the Gospel of Luke in this case), and returning to the teachings and doctrines of the Pharisees, is surely having fallen from grace: but that does not somehow overthrow or invalidate the Torah, for walking according to the spiritual and supernal understanding provided in the Testimony of the Master upholds the Torah and establishes the Torah because the new Way of the Master is the Way in which the Torah was originally meant to begin with. Mosheh was not a cave man, or a neanderthal minded natural-carnal man: the Most High spoke unto Mosheh face to face, as a man speaks with his friend, (Exo 33:11).
