Foolish Galatians: Galatians 3:1-14

You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you?

Foolish. Anoetoi. Without understanding. Mindless. Paul was not calling them stupid—he was calling them thoughtless. They had stopped using their minds. They had been bewitched.

Bewitched—as if under a spell, as if enchanted, as if their rational faculties had been suspended by dark magic. Something had captured their minds and led them away from the obvious truth.

Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified.
