| 0:00.0 | Hey, my friends, it's Matt. This is the 10-minute Bible Hour podcast, and I'm having such |
| 0:04.6 | fun right now. This epilogue we're doing on Galatians and the research I'm getting to do on, |
| 0:10.8 | as we try to answer the question, did Galatians work? Did it solve this question that it was |
| 0:16.2 | trying to solve? Did the churches that Paul was writing to? Did they thrive? Did it work out? It's such a fun |
| 0:22.3 | question. And it's such an obvious question. Who knew? Well, I'm having a blast with this. And it might |
| 0:27.3 | take a minute and I don't care. Yesterday, you've really got to catch yesterday's bit because we were |
| 0:31.8 | working through the quick timeline of Paul and how we got up to the time of the writing of Galatians |
| 0:37.3 | and how that ties in with the time of the writing of Galatians and how that |
| 0:37.8 | ties in with the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15, which seems to be directly tied to the stuff |

| 0:55.2 | I think it's very eye-opening. |

| 1:03.9 | or not Galatians worked. |
| 1:06.7 | Ooh, I'm excited. |
| 1:07.9 | All right, I have Jeff play some music, and we'll pick up right where we left off yesterday. |
| 1:20.9 | Music Ooh, I'm excited. All right. I have Jeff play some music, and we'll pick up right where we left off yesterday. So, if you're willing to play along with me on this timeline, and I understand, there's a little bit of a play along with me here. |
| 1:26.9 | It's still |
| 1:27.5 | possible that Galatians is maybe written in 55 after the second missionary journey, maybe even |
| 1:33.1 | on the third missionary journey. I think the way things are unfolding, I think what I've learned |
| 1:38.4 | about ancient travel routes and why Paul went where he went and didn't go where he didn't go, |
| 1:43.0 | makes the early date of Galatians |
