12 I beg of you, brethren, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You have done me no wrong;
Galatians 4:12 King James Version (KJV)
12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.
Galatians 4:12 English Standard Version (ESV)
12 Brothers,[a] I entreat you, become as I am, for I also have become as you are. You did me no wrong.
Analyzing Paul's faith in progression
Ethnic & outwardly observant religious Jew emphasizing that obeying Jewish Laws and rituals is important
-----to------->
follower of Jesus Christ (but not a Judaizer (i.e. Jews who acknowledged Jesus Christ, but also emphasizing that obeying Jewish Laws and rituals is important))
Analyzing Galatians's faith in progression
Most likely majority Gentiles who obviously did not emphasize that obeying Jewish Laws and rituals is important (I am assuming there were no Jews among the Galatians)
-----to------->
follower of Jesus Christ but manipulated by Judaizers (i.e. Jews who acknowledged Jesus Christ, but also emphasizing that obeying Jewish Laws and rituals is important) to follow said Jewish Laws and rituals
Keeping the aforementioned analysis in mind, this is how I view (Galatians 4:12)
I beg of you, brethren, become as I am
Paul is urging the Galatians to be a follower of Jesus Christ (and not emphasize that obeying Jewish Laws and rituals as being important)
for I also have become as you are
Paul is stating that he himself, by currently not being captive to Jewish Law and rituals became like the Gentiles since Gentiles obviously do not emphasize that obeying Jewish Laws and rituals is important
Is there something incorrect and/or missing from this view?
