People tagged in the matching LV passage: Paul
In this section, Paul stressed that the gospel that he preached came from Jesus Christ himself. No human being taught it to him. Therefore, his message had God’s authority. Paul’s purpose in writing this section was to convince the Galatians that the true gospel is the one that he preached.
Some other possible headings for this section are:
Paul’s Message Comes from Christ (NLT)
Jesus Alone Gave Paul the Good News He Spreads (GW)
Paul’s Authority is from God (NCV)
God is the source of Paul’s authority and message
Later I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
¶ After that visit I went to the provinces of Syria and Cilicia.
¶ When I left Jerusalem, I travelled to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
Later: The Greek word that the BSB translates as Later introduces what Paul did after his short visit to Jerusalem.
Some other ways to translate this word are:
After that visit
Then, from Jerusalem
When I left Jerusalem
I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia: The words Syria and Cilicia are the names of two regions/districts. These regions were far away from Jerusalem. They were far away from the place where the apostles lived and where the church began.
Some other ways to translate this clause are:
I went to the districts of Syria and Cilicia
I went to the areas of Syria and Cilicia (NCV)

ἔπειτα ἦλθον εἰς
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: Ἔπειτα ἦλθον εἰς τά κλίματα τῆς Συρίας καί τῆς Κιλικίας)
The word Then indicates that the events Paul will now relate came after the events Paul has described in 1:18–19. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could show this relationship by using a fuller phrase or by expressing the meaning in some other way that is natural to your readers. Alternate translation: [After I left Jerusalem I went to] or [After that I went to] or [Afterward I went to]
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
