The early Church Father John Chrysostom relates these two words to the special situation in which the Galatians found themselves: “For since they were in danger of falling from grace, he prays that they may recover it again, and since they had become at war with God, he beseeches God to restore them to the same peace.” (Chrysostom, “Homilies on Galatians,” 4.)
