Galatians 1:11-13

Holman Christian Standard Bible

Paul Defends His Apostleship

¹¹ Now I want you to know, brothers, that the gospel preached by me is not based on human thought.^{[a] 12} For I did not receive it from a human source and I was not taught it, but it came by a revelation^(A) from Jesus Christ.^(B)

¹³ For you have heard about my former way of life^(C) in Judaism:^(D) I persecuted^(E) God’s church to an extreme degree and tried to destroy it.
