Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Galatians 1:20

_ _ Solemn asseveration that his statement is true that his visit was but for fifteen days and that he saw no apostle save Peter and James. Probably it had been reported by Judaizers that he had received a long course of instruction from the apostles in Jerusalem from the first; hence his earnestness in asserting the contrary facts.

Matthew Henry's Commentary
