In this second instalment, we will start to address the question of why Paul wrote Galatians in the first place. Paul's letters are what are known as 'occasional letters'. Paul never wrote simply to tell audiences what he believed; rather he wrote to provide antidotes and solutions for problems that had a reason in believing communities to which he was in some way connected. Galatians 1:6-10 give some initial hints as to the nature of the problem Paul addresses.
