King James Bible
"Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand."
Paul draws attention to either the physical size of his handwriting or the length of this epistle. The Greek can mean "large letters" (suggesting bold handwriting, possibly due to poor eyesight) or "long letter" (emphasizing the effort invested in this message). Unlike his typical practice of dictating to a scribe, Paul personally writes this section or possibly the entire letter. This personal touch underscores his deep concern for the Galatians and authenticates the letter against forgeries circulating in his name.
