Galatians 6:11-18

Paul previously mentioned false brothers in Galatians 2:4, and then he discussed the fact that he had been in

direct communication with other apostles like James, Peter, and John. In Galatians 5:2, he specifically states that “I, Paul, say to you…” And here in Galatians 6:11, he draws attention to his own handwriting. It is likely that the recipients would have been able to recognize his handwriting and they could be assured that this letter of

such strong rebuke against the Judaizers was indeed from Paul. This is also an example of Paul wanting to

openly and honestly take ownership of these statements. This surely would be an encouragement to the recipients and it should be so for us today to stand behind what we say and write.
