Paul wrote to the Galatians to address the issue of Judaizers, who were teaching that Gentile believers needed to follow Jewish laws and customs, such as circumcision, in order to be saved. Paul wanted to emphasize that salvation comes through faith in Christ alone, not through works of the law. He also wanted to reaffirm the Galatians' understanding of grace and freedom in Christ.
