The letter to the Galatians is written to a group of churches that Paul established in the Roman province of Galatia in Asia Minor.  After Paul left other missionaries came in and started insisting another version of the gospel.  They insisted that Gentiles had to become circumcised and keep the Jewish Law to be right with God. Paul's angry response with an autobiography sketch designed to show that his version of the gospel came directly from God through a version from christ. He then argues vehementaly  that salvation come to Gentiles by faith Christ alone. The letter concludes with ethical admonitions.
