“Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.”
As you know, it was because of an illness that I first preached the gospel to you. — Paul's founding mission among the Galatians was occasioned by illness ('astheneia'), a physical weakness that became the vehicle of grace; his vulnerability became the occasion of their gospel-reception, a reversal where bodily weakness carries divine power.
